Unigine Heaven 4.0 Benchmark Scores

[Db_BRICK]

Db_BRICK, what brand is your 980, and how is the noise level like when it's at stock
and also when oc'd? 1544 is an impressive bump!

Ian.

It's the EVGA acx 2.0 980 and at stock it's amazing since the fans don't even turn on until 60c which it only get up to under around 75% load. When they do it only takes around 10-20 fan speed under max load.

AMD FX9370
R9 290
8GB G.Skill
WaKü Endermax

I think iam the first one with an FX9370 here so u need to add my CPU in the list

 

[FX-GMC]

Updated.

 

[WoodyWakü]

Thx the results are currently without OC´d casue i have the watercooler since today and I want to OC my core to 5GHz then i will update my results

 

[dskhury]

Hey guys, just a little doubt here... I'm not posting my results just yeet, just want some opinions on what i got given my rig setup

Core i5 4670k @ stock clock
8GB 1600 DDR3
XFX R9 280X 3GB Black OC Edition @ 1080/1550

Using the max possible settings @ 1080p i got arround 950ish Score. Is this in pair with the current setup? Or should be higher?

Hey there, yes, that score is on par with your setup. I would say that setup could maybe squeeze 50 points more out of the test but that's the general score you would get.

 

[WoodyWakü]

OC´d my CPU today from 4,4GHz to almost 4,8GHz Temperature get a little bit higher than the last one but still space up also clocked my DRAM.
I will slowley go further to 5.0Ghz but i need to do that when i have more time maybe I also need to buy a new Power Supply before. At the moment my Sytsem has a 600W and in benchmark with OC i reach 585W.

But when someone of u need a nice cooler for little money really get that Enermax Watercooler its pretty dam decent !

Here the new score

Squeezing by overclocking you meant? Or just general tweaks here and there?

 

[WoodyWakü]

ne he meant like in other conditions like day times, when u freshly started the pc after playing a game etcpp with overcloacking u will increase between 100-300 Points i would guess

I would be surprised to see a 280x reach 1200-1300 score, I highly doubt it though.

 

[WoodyWakü]

I thin k if u cool well enough there is a good motherboard build in ur PC and also a good cooling it should be reachable to get that kind of scores

What GPU clocks were you running? There is no way a single R9 290 gained 600 points with the same clocks. Also, with the previous best single 290 scoring only 1589 at 1240/1590 your scores are definitely suspect.

Even the first score is suspect as hell

I agree. IMO neither of those results are possible at 947MHz core. I am removing the score until further information is presented.

In the future if anyone has a problem with a result please send me a PM. I can't really "police" the system, so I may pass over a few outliers.


@WoodyWakü please inform us to what the core/memory clocks are on your R9 290 for both your first result of 1643 and your second result of 2158. Screenshots of GPU-Z wouldn't hurt.



EDIT: Furthermore, I have been lax in the past with GPU clocks being noted. From now on if a result doesn't meet the requirements laid out in the first post the score WILL NOT be added.

If heavily oc'd, maybe. The 280X is basically the same as the 7970 GHz; I have two which give round the 1800 to 1900 range for this
test in CF, so a single 280X should give 900 to 1000 at stock.

It's the EVGA acx 2.0 980 and at stock it's amazing since the fans don't even turn on until 60c which it only get up to under around 75% load. When they do it only takes around 10-20 fan speed under max load.

Blimey, that's exactly the card I want to get! Still waiting for it to come in stock.

PS. The above EVGA has just come into stock, and they've put the price up by 31 UKP.
I'm so sick of the price gouging which goes on in the UK...

 

[WoodyWakü]

I runned the second Bechmark with both of my R9 290 whats so special about that score ?

when u check Hall of Fame some ppl reach 2300-2500 with their R9 290´s

and i didnt even asked to take the new score into the ranking since two GPU´s are not allowed, so dont see the problem

Your result says you have only one GPU.

You also said "Here's the new score" implying that nothing had changed (no mention of a second graphics card.)

If you want to submit a screenshot of GPU-Z beside the posted score confirming dual cards then i will add the scores.

Example with GPU-Z:

 

[Stasis007]

Probably don't see too many i3's around these parts... Transitioning a basic gaming rig into something Rift-ready come Xmas, GPU was the 1st step (a 290 for $250 on Amazon was too good to pass up!). Main reason for posting this is to get some confirmation that it's good silicon. Been reading a lot of forum posts detailing problems with the PCS+ cards, so was keen to jump into and test mine to see what's what.

GPU is a Powercolor PCS+ 290 (non X) clocked at 1180/1500. Zero artifacting during benching after several hours of stress. It was stable at 1250/1550 w/ +100mV on the core, but returned a slightly lower score in Heaven jacked up like that for some reason (no issues with temps or throttling that I could see).

Temps hovered around 65C, with fans around 50-60%; VRM1 ~70C. Guessing I could squeeze a fair few more frames out of it, but case has no intake fan and 550w PSU, so I'm treading lightly.

Thanks! Looks like almost all the suppliers have kicked the price up to around 480 to 500 UKP,
so I bought one from Novatech for 460 total. More than I wanted to spend, but I reckon if I left
it much longer, their price would go up too (the source I was going to use had it listed for 432,
but then when they had new stock arrive yesterday, the price shot up to 463; stuff that I say!).

Anyhoo, this is the config it will be replacing, two Palit GTX 580 3GB SLI @ default 783/2010/1566
core/RAM/shader, 344.60 driver. System is an ASUS Maxiumis IV Extreme (so the cards are each
at 8x PCIe v2), i7 2700K @ 5GHz, 16GB RAM @ 2133MHz (9/11/10/28/2T), Win7/Pro/64 (to the
thread mod, hope I've done this ok, only my 2nd shot)...

Thankfully I've sold the two 580s for a good price (175 each), so the dosh pain is minimal.

If I can get at least the same speed for the (older) games I play, I'll be happy, but just a little more
oomph would be good for the OTT customised Crysis config I use (45fps with these two 580s). Btw,
I know these 580s oc just fine to 900/2150/1800 core/RAM/shader, but as I've sold them I didn't want
to risk an oc run. I can try oc'd 580 runs later with some MSI 3GB LX cards instead (they use 832 default,
but handle 950+ with ease; my AE system has four of them).

Ian.

PS. I bought the 580s last year for 270 total, so I've made a profit of 80 on them. Hehe, not bad... 8)

 

[Alechord]

Hi guys. Here's my result. I think I stabilized it enough. Even Watchdogs does not crush XD lol

 

[Monkent]

Here's my "dirty" overclock of my Asus GTX980 Strix, no voltage increase.

Screenshot is not after benchmark, but with same settings, and short GPU load.

 

[Revelle]

Hey guys, just recently got my new MSI Ghost Pro 3K-046 laptop, its got the newer 970m so I thought Id give it a shot fully stock and see what it gets. I may try overclocking later.

Updated. forgot to post specs

 

[FX-GMC]

Updated the list with the scores that conform to the rules laid out in the first post.

 

[thekos]

Hi its me again. Updated AMD drivers to 14.9.1 beta(i think). Hope this time I done it right - Here are first result's:
