Show us your Unigine Heaven benchmark scores!

[essenbe]

Bungee, you're still bragging about that killer rig you built? Just kidding, but Solar is right. It's just a benchmark and means nothing in the 'real world'. You'll find some benchmarks are optimized for AMD GPUs and some for Nvidia. Some will recognize your CFX and some won't. In your real life usage of your computer, none of them mean anything. They are just for playing. I don't get too upset if any of them don't get the score I think it should. Just like yours, my rig will play any game out on the highest settings. That's all that really matters.

Steve, Tommy,
I know you are right, but I just cannot understand why I get reasonable scores without any OC and then crappy ones with OC.
It used to run just fine with my OC'ed 8120.
But again, you are right. I'll put it to rest.
Thanks guys,
J

Hi guys ... just found the forum and this thread and thought I'd chime in with results for the new Christmas build ...

Hi Mike, and welcome.

Nice rig!

Try maxing everything out in the benchmark and run it again, so results are comparable.

Cheers,

Here you go ... all benchmark options maxed out. No GPU OC. Slight CPU OC (idles at just over 4 GHz with boost to nearly 5 GHz under load.

Very good numbers Mike! Cool rig.

Nice score Mike
Welcome to Seven forums.

Great scores and great rig, Mike. Well done. Hope to see you around Seven Forums quite often. Glad you found us.

Thanks, guys ... I expect I'll be stopping by often.

are you running with 13_1 WHQL drivers?
reason I ask is that some 7*** series users seem to be in rapture over it
while others report that it nerfs some GFX OC-ing and tweaking apps

if you're feeling adventurous there's a 13_2 BETA (unofficial) floating about
some users are going nuts over the improvements - reporting big improvements..
you need nerves of steel to go BETA-testing with AMD, by the way

I'm sure not going to try any of these new GCN 7*** series hardware-related drivers myself
unless they're approved for earlier models by the AMD tweaking crew, that is..

NB: AMD's new driver-scrubbing utility, is causing some Win7 installations to go haywire
so, tread carefully with that one (- or keep a rescue-disk handy..!!):shock:

Thanks BugMeister.
I'm running 13.1, no issues. Not ready to try 13.2 Beta. Will give 13.1 more time to mature.
Thanks again,
J

Here's mine.3930k 4.6ghz, 2x7970s flashed to ghz edition on stock clocks, 13.1 drivers

Howdo folks
As i thought my cpu is limiting me a bit. So i upped my oc from 4Ghz to 4.3 which certainly helped. I think i could have scored more still though as i have the central heating on and one of my gpu's hit 71c. 70c being the first throttle point. It would probably make very little difference but i'll do it again when it's cooler
I've still not tweaked my gpu's at all yet either.
Before and after screenie's

Very nice score thebagladysong

 

[essenbe]

ganjiry, Nice increase there. well done.

@thebagladysong, Welcome to Seven Forums. Those are quite nice scores. Very well done. Congratulations.

 

[ganjiry]

I've done another run while its cold lol.
I increased my cpu to 4.4Ghz

On my Gpu's i changed power management to max performance and raised the power target on gpu's to 120% with +25mV.
It made practically no difference at all, Max Fps increased by 5 and scored an extra 4 points.
I'm pretty sure my max kepler boost is 1176Mhz though as i've never seen it higher no matter what i do and Mem clock 1527MHz. No complaints ere

Hi guys,
I finally managed to decipher why I was getting such low FPS in 3D Mark11's physics benchmarks (4-5 fps).
Turns out that though I passed IBT (10 passes), the CPU wasn't getting enough juice to properly compute the physics stuff. It got enough not to freeze or BSOD, but not enough to do it right.
I bumped vcore beyond what's allowed through BIOS using MSI's OS overclocking tool (Click Bios II) et voila, now I get 25+ FPS on both physics benchmarks.
Since the board vdroops like there's no tomorrow (from 1.512 to 1.435 under stress and idles at around 1.48) I'm settling for a 4.4MHz 24/7 OC to keep idle vcore at reasonable levels. Not ready to fry anything, not yet.
This board would be great if it had LLC. Already looking into some Sabetooth deals plus a heftier PSU.
Thanks for your advice.
Cheers,
Jay
