[BENCHMARKS] The OFFICIAL Thread

[Thumper_23]

New vbios out, lets see those new and improved benchmarks.

I'd love to see a screenshot of that 62K Vantage run.

wow, not one bench:45:

Its lonely at the top John.

Come one guys, you don't have to brake any records, let's just have some fun here.

Let me start with posting a few random ones:

Oh and I guess this one got lost in the server crash:

[johnksss]

Exactly! It's not about breaking records. It's about letting us know how these new mods are working out.

might be dropping a few benches here once i get my new rig

[johnksss]

That was for the 30 or so people who downloaded the new vbios. LOL

[wolf3d]

Hi, any bench out yet for the new models p750zm or p770zm?

[jaybee83]

just check the results section on the futuremark page, lots of results already posted there

[Thumper_23]

Hope to do better once I figure out the best power target and voltage NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-4960X,Clevo P570WM powered by PremaMod.com

u should really do better Thumper, shame on you posting such crappy results here [emoji14]

[Thumper_23]

Using Premas vbios. Thank you Prema!

@usmc362 I see your cards are only running at x8. This seems a bit odd and will have a small performance impact with SLI.

You mean the bus interface?

[jaybee83]

maybe uve got pcie powersaving enabled, thus it switches to a lower bandwidth when in idle / 2D mode. should switch back to x16 once in 3D though. check with the built in render test in gpu-z (click question mark)

jaybee I ran that render test but stopped it. Does it eventually stop on it's own? Where could I find out wether I have pcie powersaving enabled? Thanks

[jaybee83]

did ur bus interface change when running the render test? if yes, then uve got pcie powersaving enabled, you can disable it in windows power settings. although u dont really lose any performance since it only downclocks at idle.

if it doesnt change during the render test it could be something different altogether...

edit: that render test is just a quick way to check ur gpus behaviour in a 3D environment

No it didn't change. It said 1 gpu 16 1 at 8. In advanced power settings I have Link State Power Management I have both options off.

[johnksss]

That is suppose to be 16x. If it never switches, you will need to pull your cards and put them back in their slots.

LOL...relax, that's normal on P57...the slave runs at 8x connected to the Master, while the Master itself is then connected via 16x to the main PCIe hub...

So I don't have to reseat the cards Prema?

[johnksss]

Interesting...

Mine never do that.

And I have SLI disabled so it should be stuck in 8x/1.1 mode since it's never being used.

Not as long as the Master is switching up to 16x...

[ATTACH=CONFIG]13559[/ATTACH]

Yeah that's also normal without SLI, when both are directly communicating with the PCIe and not "sharing" so they run 16x/16x as compared to SLI where they run 16x/8x.

@ALL what's the ASIC of your GPUs? We have one 980M here which does 1520+Mhz (1.2v) benching stable and it has an ASIC of 77% another with 63% does about 1470Mhz...

[jaybee83]

interesting indeed! i was just about to say that the cpu only provides 16 lanes anyways, so if the PCH provides another 8 for the gpus then thats it i guess? pure guesswork from my side now

[Thumper_23]

Well I just disabled SLI, restarted and started SLI restarted and now it's correct. Hmm, was wondering why my gpu score was a tad low.

[Guest]

LOL...Ok, I officially have no clue...now I have seen all variants from people using the same setup...
