My two Gigabyte GTX 970 G1's should be here today. I'm excited to start pushing them to their limits. I know 3 7950's have a lot of raw power, but they rarely scale well in games. I think the only time i've ever seen all 3 of them in the upper 90's is during 3dmark, which doesn't benefit me well in the real world. From what I understand Nvidia scales a lot better in games and even if they don't, 1 970 is almost on the same level as a 780 ti, so I think i'll be a lot happier all the way around.

*edit*
I'm also very excited to be able to use my Nvidia Shield tablet to it's fullest. I love the tablet, but always felt like I was missing out having ati cards.

Look forward to your scores mate.

First run, absolutely stock, no tweaking.

Firestrike score - 16498

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-4770K,ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. MAXIMUS VI HERO

I'm new to SLI, but is it normal for the main card to run at a higher voltage? The cards are identical and run at the exact same speeds, but the main runs at 1.225 under load and the secondary runs at 1.181. Needless to say that makes the main run noticeably hotter, about 10c hotter.

Anyways...these scores are FANTASTIC, they blow my old trifire out of the water. I'm in love, can't wait to give these puppies some tweaking, although i'm pretty happy with stock.

If you do update, don't forget my G1 badge

Thanks Guys, I appreciate it.

I think this is all she's got without pumping the voltage or modding the bios
1571mhz Core and 7830mhz Memory

Firestrike Score - 18287

In all fairness though, It's the extra 2 processor cores that are holding back my score. My graphics score is the best, but it's that darn physics

I'm content with what I have though, they perform like gaming graphics gods.

Nice bump, updated the chart for you!

2x MSI r9 280 Gaming 3G. Software differences. Ran a bunch of tests with different softwares. ALL AT 720p.

Labeled NoAPPS, but I believe the MSI Gaming APP was running. I could be wrong.

Using MSI Gaming APP on OC setting. (I believe this was a forced OC of the CPU to 4.4ghz, which I haven't had good results with as seen below. I mostly just leave the turbo on)

Lastly. MSI Afterburner CC @ 1095 / M @ 1350 (CPU Turbo On, no forced CPU OC)
