[nednerbish]

okay, its worth a shot. So I download the same version straight from nvidias site then and install it?

yeah straight from nvidia... beta if they are available but whql are fine too.

Now that i did that I cannot set in nvidia control panel to choose my gpu card by default. The option isnt even there now :/

A little bit of tweaking in Catalyst Control Center...

A little bit more of tweaking in Catalyst Control Center...

KvikSand81 - AMD FX-8370 @ 4.0 GHz - ASUS Radeon R9 390 OC DirecCU III STRIX @ 1090 MHz / 6100 MHz - 64.0 - 2677

Slightly higher GPU core clock...

And, just for the fun of it, a run without AA...

Nice scores!

Nice scores!

Thanks!

970SLI Valley: 5555

970 Single card run: 3035

Nice results and as expected the NVIDIA cards does a little bit better in Unigine Valley compared to AMD.

Could you please use the posting format outlined in the beginning of the thread as it makes it much easier to get an overview of how the hardware that produced the score was configured! The format is as follows:

[Username] - [CPU @ Speed in GHz] - [Type of GPU(s) @ Core Speed / Memory Speed] - [Average FPS] - [Score]
[Screenshot of in Bench with Settings]

You got the screenshots right, now you just need the other part! 😀

I'M So confused. I thought thses 1070 and 1080 cards were supposed to be really good. So hows a single 970 beating my valley score?

I would be looking at any thermal or voltage throttling and how the new NVidia gpu boost 3.0 works ??

then why is your scores changing from extreme hd to ultra ??? I got all my presets set to ultra [cause theres no extreme hd setting ] but my scores all ways show extreme hd ?

Valley is extremely CPU bound, especially with more powerful hardware. If you want higher scores in Valley, you have to overclock the processor as high as possible....even then, you'll probably still see a bottleneck.

Valley just isn't a good GPU benchmark any longer. Check your FS graphics scores against a 970s graphics scores, and you'll feel a lot better about your purchase. I promise ya.

his post scores above and this are close with a 4790k and 970 , but at extreme hd not ultra ?

i think the valley benchmark is architecture biased. the 780/ti will score higher than 970/980 even though we know the 980 is a bit faster than the 780ti.

 

[Vellinious]

Kind of....as the GPUs become more powerful, the processor comes into play more. The best systems for Valley runs, are dual core processors with extremely high core clocks. lol

 

[RobCrezz]

Yeah does seem to be. My 1060 wasnt much faster than my 780 in Valley, but its much faster in games.

Yeah does seem to be. My 1060 wasnt much faster than my 780 in Valley, but its much faster in games.

I got a clean double on this benchmark going from an HD7950 to an R9 390, while still on the same i5 760 @ 3.4GHz.

i would imagine it is close to double depending on the frequencies.

Yeah I had similar experience going from 680 to 780.

I think Valley is just due an update to be honest.
