Unigine Valley 1.0 Benchmark Thread

[king smp]

Wow I just ran the bench with default Nvidia settings and couldnt break 33 FPS
this was at 1325 mzh boost and a 600 mhz OC on memory
I am humbled LOL
though it is true the 660Ti does benefit from a good memory OC from all the 660Ti reviews I read

 

[king smp]

Now I just ran it with "cheater" Nvidia Control Panel settings and scored a 39.7 LOL
I could post a screenie looking totally legit but really would be a lie
interesting....

 

[cklaubur]

I can tell you this, the screenshots I posted were with the default Catalyst settings. I don't know what half of the settings do, so I just don't mess with them.

I wasnt doubting anybody on this thread
It turns out that I was the one cheating LOL
that is why I ran mine at default settings to see the difference

Why not post stock clocks with high mem clocks? Its pretty depressing scores, but my card was pretty quiet.

Playing with my newest toy, a MSI GTX 670 Power Edition. This is the best score so far for me 1306/1850. The core seems to throttle briefly at times though, will work on fixing that later. I was just happy to see a Kepler (a gimped one at that) hit 50 FPS.

:/ My 670 I had could never do what yours just did. Are you watercooled?

 

[stickg1]

Nope, it's air cooling. I did modify the BIOS to move the voltage from 1.175v to 1.21v, it got me a couple extra bumps on the core clock. Stock voltage I could do 1280MHz but with more voltage I max out at 1306MHz.



That's the card I'm using.

 

[cklaubur]

Because nobody else has done it, a run on Linux!

Same CPU overclock (to 4.2 GHz), GPU at stock settings.


Apparently, I have some work to do. Crossfire isn't working, even though the drivers say it is. That's still too low for one card, though.

Linux drivers suck LOL

I'm beginning to think that's why nobody did a run on it!

That rig looks sick! Imagine a Phanteks PH-TC14PE_BK with your yellow corsair SP 120s. You are pushin the crap out of that 670, what case it that?

I't needs a Lightning.

 

[stickg1]

Yeah I wanted a lightning. Whether its a 7970 or a 680. Maybe even a 780!

It's just a Fractal Design Arc Midi R2. I took out some of the HDD racks and the 5.25" rack and painted all the white trim yellow.

The CPU cooler is a Prolimatech Panther. I chose it because of it's slim design so I can use all 4 RAM slots with ease and would be able to swap RAM without removing the cooler or it's fans.

I'd slap a 780 Lightning in there! If not that, then a 7970 lightning. Replace that mobo with a Big Bang from MSI also, you'd have a complete scheme!

You need a motherboard like this one http://www.legitreviews.com/asrock-z77-oc-formula-motherboard-is-designed-to-break-records_13309

 

[stickg1]

Well I actually have this motherboard. Which is entirely black and yellow, which also is why I decided to paint all my white trim the same shade of yellow, but you can't see any of that with hardware installed.

 

[meowmix44]

In-game shot please, these are easily fakable.

I guess I faked 1fps lol

53fps was after me running through about 8 times tweaking clocks. The 52ifps is my gaming settings.

How DARE you!!!!! 1FPS is like a difference between playable and unplayable! lol JK.

How the crap did you get those frames off a 660Ti?

set it to 720p so you can see everything.

I bios modded the card over and over and over because kepler is hard to get the right overclock.

Okay I have a 660Ti and I cant get over 35 FPS on stock Nvidia Control Panel settings and a hard OC on stock voltage
Is your Nvidia control panel set to default or did you change settings?
What clocks are you running at?

I had a really strong 670s and 680s at one point and neither could get those scores, legitimately. Also both of them were clocked really close to his, I can see that it's at 1314MHz, and my 670 at 1306MHz is a couple of points lower while having a higher memory clock. I think my 680 ran 1293MHz and scored 51 FPS. All my machines had a stronger CPU too. I formally declare shenanigans. 😀
