So, curiosity is pecking as I recently just upgraded my GPU for some extra horsepower on 1440p/X34 upgrade. Long time lurker (Years) first time poster...
For fun, I decided to tweak up my new card, and as I read the 3dmark HoF for the same test, Im seeing tons of lower clocked cards scoring +4000 points more then me, with lower clock speeds, and I'm curious: How is this possible? Is my older rig holding back the GPU?
Specs of rig:
i7 2600K @ 4.4
MSI p67a-gd65 MB
16gigs Gskill Ripjax X @ 1600
980ti KP 73%- Currently @ +115 on the GPU (1535ish?) OC. Havent started on the memory OC yet. Ran out of time. Temps never exceed 51C
1000w HX1000
1x 500gig Samsung Pro SSD
Many 120 Jetflow fans in an Antec 900
Windows 10 x64 Pro
