I have a few questions that I hope you guys can help me with. I am using a GTX 680 with a i7 3770K. I have everything running at stock clock speeds.

1. Does this benchmark seem about right for my setup?

2. For benchmarking, I turn vsync off. Do you guys get screen tearing during this benchmark? I notice it throughout. The first scene with the cobblestone is particularly noticeable.

3. When I alt+tab out and reopen the benchmark in windowed mode, the tearing goes away. However, my final score is lower but not anywhere near as low as turning on vsync in full screen. Why is that?

4. I don't understand the way the clock speeds are written. For example, "GTX 680 1110/1536/1276/." I understand that the first number is the core clock. Why is the memory clock cut in half? What is the third number?

5. I'm noticing that a lot of the GTX 680 overclocks seem relatively mild. Is there a noticeable gain by overclocking the core clock speeds from the stock 1097 MHz to 1110 MHz?

Any information is greatly appreciated!

Can anyone help me with these questions?

Not too bad for what it is.... And for 1gb cards!

Could you post a screenshot with result please to get on the scoreboard.
Also more details about your card. If it is a HD 6 series I would really like to get it on the scoreboard.
 
I am at work at the moment

Can you download and install driver 306.23 this is the best driver for a GTX 690.

Then rerun 3dmark11

At the moment your score is very low even at stock speeds.

Can you also post a screenshot of GPUz showing the clock speeds please.

here you go mate. I've oc the card a little, but even at stock it's a little lower then the score I gave earlier? My card is slow for some reason?
