overclock....... i have always thought about it but have no idea how to do it, any ideas where to get card from any good places you know of.................... thanks for all your help on this dude
 
Yeah if you need any help overclocking then just head over to the "overclocking" section of this forum for some help.

Depends where you live TBH, if your in the US then Newegg or Tigerdirect are good. If your in the UK then I'd recommend Scan.co.uk, Aria.co.uk or Ebuyer.co.uk
 


cheers dude, just one last thing if i buy my self a hd5770 would my computer take it, i am a bit new to all of this, i have been reading some articles and some our sayin i need a crossfire motherboard (not to sure if i have one) sorry to be a pain
 
Yep it should be fine with your PC, you only need a Crossfire compatible motherboard if you intend to use Crossfire technology (Using two ATi cards that are in the same series together for increased performance).

BTW What PSU (PowerSupply) do you have?
 



not to sure dude, like i said i am a bit new to all of this i have always been a console man my self, but i have seen the error of my ways i got my self this pc lol
 
It would be great if another few people with an SLI / Crossfire setup would give the benchmark hack cited on the last page a go. I am in the process of building a pretty solid rig primarily for FFXIV, but also Diablo III / Starcraft II / etc. and the GPU selection is really holding me up. Deciding between ATI 5870 and SLI GTX 460s.

Obviously the SLI will smoke the 5870 for almost all applications (see Tom's article from today about the SLI crushing the 480 GTX as well). However, if FFXIV only allows the use of a single GPU (wrryyy??) then the 5870 will perform better (and render one GTX 460 a paperweight). My thought process now is actually leaning towards just getting a single 460 for now as it can still play the game reasonably well, then upgrading to an SLI setup if the final version of the game allows it. But if it doesn't, I'll be sad that I didn't get the 5870.

Does anyone have beta access? I figure that has to be a good gauge of the final game.
 
I'm disappointed. I have a GTX 295 and my score is just 3500. I bought this GPU for around $500 6 months ago and it was the best in the market. Check it out:

High resolution 3506

Low resolution 4283

Anyone knows what's wrong with my system?

Here's my system specs:
CPU: i7 860 2.8GHz
Graphic: Nvidia 290 GTX
RAM: 6GB DDR3 PC1333
MOBO: MSI P55-GD80
OS: Windows 7 64bit

And OC is enabled by the motherboard.
 
well even on both of those it says your cpu is clocked down to 2.4GHz and it will only read 1 GPU...maybe it just me but your voltage is real high to i dont know if it different for yours but my i7 930 OCed to 4.0GHz is only at 1.22v
 


a lot of ppl are in your situation regardless of card choices. iv looked all over and haven't found anything that says it will support sli/xfire but on the bright side i haven't found anything that says it wont.
 
GTX 295 dual GPUs so the scores will not be as good as single card. Like many have mentioned in earlier posts the benchmark does not support SLI/CF.

If you read up from page one you'll see how different card/cpu performs and different setting stock/oc'ed. Both for ATI / Nvidia

Isn't your i7 860 using way too much voltage at that MHz? 1.38 😱
 
High: 8300
Low: 11899

AMD Athlon X4 2.9G
8GB DDR3 Corsair RAM
AMD 890GX MoBo
Nvidia GTX460 1MB DM

Reason for all your crashes an misfires: bad PSUs.
My PSU: Corsair 750W.

Also, the bench only uses "half" of your available CPU power, and only two of your RAM ports. If you have really expensive RAM cards, with 4gb to each, then it will use 8gb. I have 2gb per card. My friend who works for a government lab, programming computers there, helped me force the bench to use all my 4 cores, and total RAM. Blew that bench out of the water. You will be fine running the game with the following:

4 cores
4gb ram
GPU with 1gb dedicated

Anymore great, any less you will have to adjust mapping, shading, and textures "in game" when it becomes available. Calm down.
 
Chill out. Either you downloaded a bad version of the bench, or the bench is acting like it does and using only half of your true potential. you should push near my scores.

wat 8300, that is by far the highest "high" score I have ever seen. How did you and your friend force the bench to use all four cores? With an i7 930 @ 3.8, ATI 5870, and 6 GB Corsair RAM, I got just under 5000.
 


Got a screen shot pleasee? :sol:
 



While that sounds totally possible.... pics or it didnt happen.
 
It probably possible since some ppl also manage to get sli hack working. But that is tweaking the benchmark itself.


abqman,
What kind of score did you get when you run the benchmark normally without your hardware tweaking?
 
OvrClkr,

If that's on High you will have no problem playing the game. Even at 3000~ on High should be fine I think. Most people with an older computer are in the 2000~ range and some people who are testing in beta right now are running ok at 2000~.
 
Hey everyone i read through this forum looking at scores and specs, and i have a question. I'm getting a score of 3623 on low and 2922 on high.

My specs are:
Phenom II x4 OC @ 3.8 GHz
4 GB DDR2 800 RAM
MSI 470 GTX 1280 GDDR5
BFG 550W PSU
WD 350G HDD (main)
Seagate 1TB HDD
ASRock MoBo

I know its not the best computer out there but just seems those scores area little low to me. Any input or advice would be great. And thanks for having such a useful website.
 


whats your monitors native resolution?
 


I believe your pc is good enough to run FFXIV for high res,otherwise PS3 wont run it at all. Dont trust FFXIV benchmark too much. Its core is pretty wired and it favors Intel CPU with ATI card. I hope some FFXIV beta tester could post a real world test result for 470 vs 5870 and Intel vs AMD.
