GTX 570 Messed up?

[humanage]

I got an MSI GTX 570 OC card today. The 3Dmark Vantage GPU Score was 23413 on Performance setting. I noticed a little artifacting once while playing Mafia 2, but never again. What is a good score for a GTX 570 on 3Dmark Vantage? I'm scared my 570 is messed up badly! Oh, and side question, my CPU score was 69416 for CPU SCORE, I have an Intel i5 2500K @4.4GHz. Is this good?

Yeah this is Cool Score.no Need to Worry,how much ram you have got?your processor is not bottlenecking at all.

I have 8gb of G.Skill DDR3 1333mhz @ 8-9-8-24. I'm worried about the artifacting.

 

[mrjericho1991]

well that game is badly coded.have you tried playing someother games?does this same thing happens there tooo?

I just got the exact same card and got 20887 on the default performance setting. I'm running a Q9450@3.2 and 4GB Patriot Viper@1066 though. I got 50884 for the CPU score.

I don't have any artifacting but 3D Mark did crash once. I started trying Unigine Heaven and it crashes every time. I get an error about the display driver not responding. Are you able to run the Heaven benchmark? I think something might be seriously wrong with my card...

From former experience, in terms of artifacts and crashes, check your card's memory. There are several applications out there that can give you a clear picture of what's wrong with the card.

Yeah, I can run Heaven.
