Snagged a couple of 7770s for client builds. Ran them through some paces just for reference.


Max OC HIS IceQ X 7770: 1150/1300


Max OC Sapphire OC GHz Edition 7770: 1215/1475


CrossfireX at a stable 1150/1300 for both cards:

 

[king smp]

dual 7770s about 10 FPPs lower than single OCd 660Ti
about 6-7 FPS lower than stock 660Ti (1000mhz core 1135 boost)

Does this seem right? It seems low to me.

I have 6 gigs of DDR 3 16000

the program was on a SSD

It is very low.
May be a driver issue. The program being on a ssd will not increase the performance.

That is definitely wrong. My 6670 can almost get that.
A 680 should be doing 7x that framerate.

i figured it out, my CPU is overheating

Help!
I have been struggling with this issue for months. As you can see by the below picture, I have no problem running a single GTX 660 ti with Valley and getting a decent response. However, the minute I install the second identical card, Valley crashes 1/3 of the way in. I have tried numerous NVidia drivers being certain to clean out all the left overs. I have also just Monday, reformatted the drive and installed a clean Windows 7, updated all, and installed my cards. And still I get crashing on Extreme HD every time. I also will crash while playing BO2 if I use anything other than VSync on. My monitor is a 1920 x 1080 Samsung BX2431 and connected via HMDI cable. I also tried stock settings, OC setting using manual and ASUS's 4-way Optimization which brought my 4770K to a safe 4.5Ghz. I am at a loss and any assistance will be greatly appreciated!

Did you try the second card by itself? Also try a single card in the second PCIe slot. These will help pinpoint the problem.

Yes, I tried moving both cards to each spot and they both run perfectly on their own. I have also tried messing with the NVidia Control Panel settings to no avail.

I have also went into the BIOS and disabled the onboard sound and the crash still occurs. Could the answer be in "Under clocking" the cards???

Thinking and looking for guidance.

What do you have for a power supply? I didn't see that in your spec list.

Got in a GTX 760 today.., this is 1267/1825

Very strange. It's hard to diagnose it as software or hardware from over here.

Very true; however, I am now on the right track! I checked the specs of a standard GTX 660 ti and using Afterburner, I downclocked the GPUs to those levels. I brought the Base clock from 1020 to 915, and the Boost Clock from 1098 to 980. This allowed me to finally complete Valley with the following scores:

62.6
2919
31.6
11.64

However, I still get game crashes when I run with VSync off and an unlimited FPS (which in BO2 are capped at 200). But if I run VSync on, which caps me at 60FPS, the game runs smoothly. I guess it is now finding a balance between the original factory specs of a standard GTX 660 ti and the MSI PE version.

 

[smeezekitty]

I think you have a bad card. Should not need to downclock from factory.

Smeezekitty,

I thought the same thing; however, I am able to run each card independently for hours with no issues. It is only when I combine the two in SLI where my problems rear their ugly head.

BTW,

How in the world do I get my Heaven results to post? I might be dumb, but I'm not THAT dumb....
