Right got your attention -

Highest percent overclock on a gpu core wins a game from me (dont be expecting Battlefield 3 or MW 3 that cost 60 quid,, Last game I gave away was Crysis 2)

Rules -

• Use Furmark 1.10 to validate using the 15 minute benchmark
  
• Validate your score
  
• Post your screen shot below with Gpu-z alongside
  
• No cheating
  
• You got untill Sunday 6pm
  
• GPU's from Nvidia 2xx and above AMD 4xxx and above are alowed
  

I'll go first

RESULTS SO FAR

1. I Hunta x @ 17%

Multi card is fine, dont forget it's not about max scores, its about highest percent overlock

 

[I Hunta x]

925 core from 772 for 17%,

Max voltage probably wasnt needed but its on because its less effort than restarting it if it did crash

Nice one Hunta,,, 1st place for a bit

Gonna have to cancel this......

Didnt know nvidia has got hardware throttling when using Furmark... will think of another bench and start a new thread...

SORRY

 

[I Hunta x]

Isnt the throttling issue only when they get to hot? and dont AMD/ATI do the same?

On Nvidia its built into the drivers to throttle once furmark, occt etc is detected.. There is hack to get around it using GPU-Z via the cmd line but a little to complicated for a random little comp like this....

Look at your score with your 580, you should be getting way more than that....

[I Hunta x]

300W load with it unlimited... once i get wc i may have to unlimit it...

 

[FTLN]

Any reccomendations for another bench we could use ?

 

[MrGiorgio]

Just another 40 more minutes

I have a feeling i may be in with a chance of winning

almost 100% overclock on my 460's

will validate when i get home from college!

*EDIT*

Can't we use GPU-z to validate, i don't really feel comfortable using furmark, especially for 15 minutes - the strain on my PSU would be enourmous

3D Mark 11 with GPU-Z validation?

3D Mark 11 with GPU-Z validation?

Problem is - I can run 3dmark 11 P/X at 1000mhz on my gpu but it isnt stable in dirt 3....

Gotta be something that really does test if your stable or not...

 

[wassupdoc]

ahh yeah, i don't know, just stick with furmark and i'll take a gpu out

MSI Kombuster? Basically furmark but non "melt yo stuff" iirc Or some test with ATI tool mabey (not seen a recent release for it tho)?

 

[wassupdoc]

Kombustor is just as bad

i'll run furmark tomorrow

EDIT*

Ran kombustor because furmark wouldn't work

Still proves it's stable though right?
