GTX 745 Heaven Benchmark

[yourautoadvocate]

I have a gtx 745. I7 6700, XPS8900... Upgrading to a PNY GTX 1060 right now. Just ran a heaven benchmark and here are the results.. Pathetic i believe.

On high quality
Temp87
FPS 23.5
Score 592

Min FPS 16.9
Max FPS 45.0

Does the look right for a 745? Will i see a HUGE difference with the 1060?

Thank you

Not sure on the GTX745, OEM cards rarely get comprehensive benchmarks.

Night and day difference between a 745 and a 1060. If you compare the cards from contemporary generations the GTX1060 would be somewhere above GTX780Ti level of performance. About 90% of a GTX980.

A 87C temp on your GPU is the issue where it's probably thermal throttling to prevent damage. Pretty sure if you cleaned out the GPU, applied new paste and changed to a aggressive fan curve you'd probably get a better score.

According to this chart, a 750ti is 175% faster than the GTX 745. I would say the 745 is probably closer to GTX 730 performance.

If that CPU temp you posted is 87c then I would change the thermal paste and maybe get an aftermarket cooler also.

1) some comparison benchmarks:
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_1060/26.html

*Note GTX745 has 384 cuda cores and GTX760 1152... thus performance is likely about 25% to 33% (depends on frequency too) that of the GTX760...thus maybe 12% the performance of a GTX1060 6GB?

2) Just FYI but the benchmark results are useless without also giving the EXACT SETTINGS (resolution, AA etc) used to get them.

Here are some benchmarks I ran a while ago (GTX1050Ti is roughly GTX680/770 and GTX1060 6GB is roughly 60% of a GTX1080.

3. You can also use DSR in NVidia Control Panel if you have a 1920x1080 panel to render a benchmark at 2560x1440...if you set DSR values such as 1.25, 1.78 etc (I think it's 1.78x if you have 1920x1080) then you should see that resolution option in the benchmark (or game) so it will RENDER at that resolution so the benchmark values can be compared (it will then downscale to 1920x1080... people use this as a form of anti-aliasing to make jagged lines straighter in practice).
