3DMark Vantage Compilation

yeah.. i think i know what the problem is.. you said that its impossible to get your gpu ram frecuency higher.. why is that? the HD5000 series have error correction..so.. you shouldn't be able to get any artifacts while overclocking..

Because it grey screens at speeds higher than 1170.

grey screens??


if you can, post an image cause i don't get the meaning of that

put your memory to 1300 and see what happens

looks a lot like this

Although it shouldn't matter what PCI-E slot I occupy with the card, Vantage gave me 400 more points.

well i tried 1300 on the memory and.. its working

Pretty amazing card you have there klz

cards are just like CPU's Binge, maybe he just got a better one bro. Those vantage scores are still very good IMO for a single 5850. remember vantage is a nvidia benchmark bro, they shine in it.

It's only an NV benchmark when you include physX. Vantage is a DX10 benchmark.

Heres my new personal best with the 285.
Took alittle tinkering to get it to stop crashing.

i think theres a couple of limiting factors in my rig. the ddr2800 for one i can run at 4-4-4-12@800Mhz or 5-5-5-15@1000...i bench better at 800 though. the other limiting factor is the phenom, compared to the 4+ Ghz i7's out there my 3.8Ghz is the most i can get out of it...on air lol...

And clock for clock the phenom II is not so beastly as i5/i7's A Phenom II at 3.8Ghz is compared to a i5 at 3.4-3.5Ghz right? Same goes for my q9550. The Phenom II 940 at 3.0Ghz is on par with my 2.8Ghz q9550 yet they have the same cores but a Phenom II processor needs to be 200Mhz faster to be on par with a core 2 quad q9000 series.


*EDIT* Phenom II's are still very great processor's and for the money you pay for what they do is awesome. Even though a Phenom II aint so fast clock for clock, it dosn't show almost at all in video games. So dont worry we all have fast quad's

I have to geta 5770. Price/performance on those cards is amazing!

Here are my benches............sorry, but most of the time I managed to forget taking screenshots with CPU-Z and GPU-Z on....but I don't overclock my system........

My 1st ATI cards ever.. and I really like them thus far. $330 for near 5870 performance. I hope no problems arise but I like what I'm seeing.

 

[Chicken Patty]

Yes I agree bro. That's going to be my next card

 

[shevanel]

my only complaints are I am noticing stutter in MW2 @ 60fps steady. All other games run just fine and max'd out.

I don't know if it's drivers or just xfire issues

 

[Binge]

The issues with crossfire are driver issues.

Cool. i hear the 9.12's are coming soon. Maybe it'll fix it.

I won't smash this thread to OT but while I have you guys on the hook..

Since I know jack about xfire really.. would it be possible / beneficial if I disabled xfire when playing games that I know don't really need it?

I don't see the point. Your 2nd card is still sucking up power, but it won't be under load.

 

[Chicken Patty]

My first time with c/f I had that issue, however this time around every game runs fine.

 

[shevanel]

well to test I disabled xfire and started MW2.. the game ran smooth with no stutter.

I did a quick search, it seems that MW2 doesnt support xfire (go figure) yet..

I only play it once in a while on spec ops mode so I'm not worried about it. I'm more concerned with upcoming DX11 games.. these older games I can play my daughters Pc if I have to lol.

Got my 2 x Evga 295 Co Ops in last night.
Anyone know how to get the Evga voltage tuner or anything else to work with those?
Be home after while to do some benching.

 

[Binge]

Co-ops can't be voltage tuned. Only the dual PCB 295s had voltage control. You must hard-mod to get results.

Was afraid you would say that.
May be they will clock good without a increase.
