Show us your Unigine Heaven benchmark scores!

Hello and welcome to the forums Salamasage :) I have added you to the leaderboard.

How are you finding the 290X so far? I had one myself a while back but I found it a little on the noisy side.

Actually I hardly notice it. I had two OC'd 7970's for about a year and they were pretty loud. Also, because I live with 3 other people I almost always wear headphones when doing anything so I don't hear it! Also, my eventual plan is to go dual liquid cooled R9 290Xs so the fans become irrelevant!

That will be awesome, I certainly think the 290X is a very good card, just currently let down by it's cooling.

OK guys, turns out I had a bad Bios for the Sabertooth which appears to have been causing certain issues with my GPU, I was running the latest 2104 Bios but I have flashed back to 1704 and the results are excellent. You can also see that it lists my GPU correctly in the screenshot too now.
I am very happy and I would say you can expect me to be beating my previous scores in pretty much all the other benchmarks too (hopefully).

My new score for Heaven -

Is that a known issue with the 2104 Paul?

Well not that I am aware of, but I was having issues where even though I set the priority of first GPU to Auto in the bios it was showing both in Device manager and if I tried to install the Nvidia drivers without first disabling the HD4000 in device manager I would lose the display completely.
Once I flashed the bios back and booted into Windows only the Nvidia card was listed in Device manager and all was well.
There must have been some kind of conflict too as it was affecting my GPU scores especially in Passmark, It should have been scoring close to 10000 for 3D and it was scoring 7000. The bios flash cured that too.

I see, now I don't know anything about this, but I believe all GPUs should be listed in Device Mgr even if disabled. It may have a yellow triangle or gray icon on it though.

Well seeing as I have 2 PC's both with Windows 7 and both with Discrete GPU's as well as onboard I just checked and both only list the Discrete card in device manager.
