    ShadowHearth, will you do a benchmark of the new timespy dx12 with the 1060 as I would like to see what score you get.

    no waggling here, but just for giggles i ran firecrest dx11 test on my new build. giggles bit it currently has a 5670 with 512mb of memory in it, an old card i am using until my new card arrives. a whopping score of 906 :)

    http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/13697925

    only posting it as sitting here waiting on my new 1070 to arrive today, so will run it again once it gets here, suspecting there may be a bit of an increase..:)

    1070 arrived. installed.

    906 this morning.

    slight improvement alright

    I am still on win 7 m8. I think dx12 is only for new windows?
    I don't have spy one, isthat the one you pay?

    Crysis maxed out only getting to mid 30's at 4k. The Division a bit higher, early 40's. Geforce experience optimal settings and they both hit 60 no issue and still look every bit as good to my eyes.

    Why are you still using a soon to be legacy OS?
    I would recommend the upgrade to Win 10.

    I havent had a

    Prices of windows 10 is a bit lialia right now. And I dont know about those keys from reddit. Too many people get their revoked.

    Pretty sure once you use the key to upgrade nothing can happen to it.

    Crytek(makers) were really always engine makers who set their sights on ****ting all over current gen cards. I don't think they ever gave a crap about sales. I'm not surprised a 3 year old game from them still creates problems at 4k.

    CPU Score is holding me back,its next on the list for an upgrade,probably next year some time.

    Still dialing in an overclock but this result is with gpu +103 core and +155 memory,tops out about 76C in the benchmark. CPU is @ 4.3Ghz

    Will update with DX12 scores at a later date

    Thanks for that. Getting around the same with a 980ti. but hitting the division mid thirties.

    Frame rates on a 1080 @ 3440 x 1440:

    Doom - 100FPS+
    Warhammer Total war - 40-50FPS
    Fallout 4 - 75 FPS ish - haven't tested this much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,417 ✭✭✭.G.


    Cooling is everything on these cards, overclocks don't matter much it seems. I can put up to 150mhz on my card but all that happens is it gets hotter faster and throttles the boost quicker. if I put 50mhz on it it ends up hovering at 75c and boost of 2012ish. If I go higher it will boost higher but once it hits the mid 70s in temps the boost drops back to the same level as with 50Mhz on it.

    So those Palit, Gainward, Inno cards with massive coolers may well do the better job of holding higher boosts.

    Thats why i was asking for your temps the other day. Ive found my card will happily OC with +100 core and +200 memory with a power limit of 95%,boost will then hoover around 2000Mhz-2050Mhz. Also using a a custom fan profile to keep the card reasonably cool,the zotac stock one was terrible and the card shot straight to 82C with no OC,with the custom profile i can keep it to about 77C but with the OC.

    I found a memory OC actually made the card worse! Keeping them at mid 70's seems to be the key, anything higher and they throttle. I haven't touched power limits or fan profiles yet either.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,578 ✭✭✭EoinHef


    Yeah mid 70's would be ideal,im finding with the zotac that the fans become audible around 75% so once the cards hits 70C they ramp up to that as its the highest i really want them going as i dont want the rig to be loud,that keeps the card j in the 70's (78C max) with the games that push it hardest like Witcher and Crysis 3.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,722 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    http://www.3dmark.com/fs/9584114

    Not the greatest but I'm thinking of swapping out the 280x for a 1060 or an rx480. Picked the 280x up cheap though to complete my build but it'll do for now!

    Yeah I was hammering the witcher yesterday, GPU usage 100% most of the time. Its a good work out for clocks and cooling!.

    Lads, if you have NVidia gfx, disable NVidia stream service if you don't stream. you can expect few extra points in benchmarks.

    Played around with the fan profile, have it boosting to a steady 2075 while hovering in the low 70s and the fans at about 80% which isn't too noisy, my bloody HDD is still the noisiest thing in my PC! Upped the case fans a bit higher to get more cool air into the GPU area which seems to help.

    My ram is rated 2400, but works on 2700 no problem. plus your ram is made by avexir, which as far as i remember is a premium brand, so should be ok to overclock.

    i went with the non k version so overclocking not really an option, might have been a mistake in hindsight but didin't really think id want to overclock. presume yours is a k model?

    my gpu is running as stock out of the box as well, not tried to do anything with that either, probably should

    thats a nice boost over my scores that you got

    serious waggle, 25% improvement on my score. must look at what i can do with my video card, any good guides floating around? always just run stock

    One good thing for you is you got a Z170 motherboard so just look up the bios to allow overclocking of a non k chip and do a overclock on the chip.

    just looking at that now. thanks. probably need to get a better cooler before i try and of this, only running the stock cooler that came with the cpu now

    i did it with the stock cooler for the tests, wouldnt leave it running with that overclock on a stock cooler.
    Ordered a better cooler today for 30 quid on amazon.
    you should be safe to go 3.9ghz on your stock cooler, i was running it for days like that.

    Should maybe a few other benchmarks be thrown in the mix along with 3dmark? I mean it's nice and all, but it would always be nice to have a repository of boardsies own gaming benchmark scores, especially when speccing rigs.

    Part of the problem with Unigine is everybody has to make sure they use the exact same settings and versions,which is more difficult than you would think.
