Post your 3D Mark Firestrike scores

[Urbwolf]

Hi AddRAM.. im using msi 980ti gaming card(s) and 5960x 8core overclocked to 4.6

So you are running sli not single card. Was going to say no damn way lol

 

[Niklu]

No urbwolf Single card atm.. but i have another one so soon i Will go sli. That test was with one card.

 

[AddRAM]

OK then, using the 5960X I guess your score is not surprising then.

No Urb, he`s running a single card, check his Firestrike webpage report.

Kingpin at the hall of fame club gets a 24000+ score using a single Ti and a 5960X, good luck topping that

The thing I find interesting with Brian (addram) is and this is not having a dig, everyone is entitled to buy what the heck they like. But it confuses me why you would buy 2x 980TI GPU's when you only use a 1920x1080p monitor. It seems like the biggest waste in the world ever. Even 1 would be overkill for that resolution not alone 2 lol.

I see you saying oh everyone is beating you because they have more cores etc. You could have just bought one 980ti and used the spare money to get a 6 core Intel instead.

Just sayin

Im with 1920x1080 144hz monitor too Paul and I got 2x980ti cards.earlier I had 3 monitors but never learned To play with them. Now im looked some 4k monitors but I have no idea how they Will work @60hz. With normal 1920x1080 monitor I dont wanna play with 60hz at all after playing with 144hz

 

[paulpicks21]

4k should work great with 2x 980ti even 3 screens should do well.

I don't have a crazy resolution, just 2560x1440p with a single 980 but it works great or it did until my new cooler decided to leak water all over my components 2 days ago.

Nice bump Mike, updated

 

[AddRAM]

One step at a time Paul, I just built this system, no need for a 6 or 8 core.

I had 1 shot to get 2 Ti`s, I can get a monitor anytime, that`s not important right now, it`ll come

Does it broke your computer Paul ? u had custom watercooling system then ?

 

[paulpicks21]

No it was an Alphacool Eisberg 240 Niklu. And yes it has damaged my PC. Lots of issues with it now. The CPU socket was soaked.

Both the Etailer I bought the cooler from and Alphacool don't want to pay for the damaged parts. The cooler was only in the PC for 2 weeks and through no fault of my own my PC is now damaged.

It's a real headache at the moment.

 

[Niklu]

Strange .. i think they should have some kind of warranty of products what they sell..

 

[Niklu]

Is there where u live some kind of the consumer ombudsman(or how its called on english) guy who u can contact if product seller tryes to escape hes responsibility?

 

[Niklu]

By the way Paul do you have that asus gaming monitor what AddRAM just linked there ? im looked that one too .. nice resolution and refresh rate. im played with 144hz monitor long time now and there is no way to go back 60hz monitor. so thats what im afraid that 4k monitors only supports 60hz but does g-sync make it smoother than normal 60hz monitor..someone tells that human eyes cant see diffrence between those refresh rates but they are really wrong.

 

[Dude]

Bad news for sure Paul, hope you get things sorted soon.

I will one day upgrade and see the difference too Niklu

 

[Niklu]

You can see diffrence in desktop not even need to play games Oh wait ... Dude u going to try 4k monitor ? thats what you mean? And that Pauls case it really sucks if cooler was faulty and leaked inside the computer and manufacturer dont get any responsibility own product.

 

[Dude]

Yes, I will try a 4k monitor one day, I take a long time on upgrades though, so it will be a while
