Unigine Heaven 4.0 Benchmark Scores

[erixx]

No no! I did a 4x run and noticed you want 8x so this one is inferior but normalized!

 

[mapesdhs]

What do you mean by normalised? AFAIK, if the GUI result is not showing 8x AA then it's
not being used, hence why your result is so much higher than it should be for a single 980.

You need to run it with proper 8x AA as other screenshots show, otherwise all it's doing is
clogging the thread with irrelevant data.

Too much wine... Will rerun later...

 

[Archangel_77]

Hope this is valid..thank you for examing it anyway! GPU CLOCK=1020mhz core GPU RAM CLOCK 5120MHZ

 

[Optinumb]

All that good stuff on too.
Little hiccup on gpu-z at the end cause the first screenshot i pasted into Paint only showed left monitor so had to screenshot again.
Fan on Auto.
Cpu temp really low, stock voltage, so coulda been OC'd more but this is my every day Overclock.
Cheers!

ok, now I see i did not use 8xAA. sorry and thanks for warning.

AMD A8 6500 APU @ 3.5Ghz ¦ R9 270X 1070 / 1400

 

[jondee112]

Think i can fill up the list? Runs on the stock clocks atm. I'm going for 4,6 GHz on the processor and dont know about the graphics card yet.

Hey guys, I just started oc'ing my 970, so far I am at 1405 mhz boost, but I've seen a lot of people easily getting to 1500+ however I am curious if those clocks hold up when running Kombustor, because I hit the powerlimit (110%) instantly and it throttles to 1375-1360. So if I throttle at 1400, than 1500+ seems impossible to me. Or is it normal that it throttles under Kombustor (because it's a stress test, not a real gaming scenario) as long as it's stable under a benchmark like Heaven or 3DMark (or any game for that matter)?

System Specs? You could be power limited (PSU), Is you CPU Overclocked? I Overclocked my GTX 970 to 1554 Boost and 2000 On the Memory.

Did not realize that I had my specs blank. i5 2500 @4.4, psu Corsair VX550. Currently my card is a 1405/1811, it's stable under gaming, 3DMark, Unigine but throttles under Kombustor.

Tested with 1500/1811 on a whim, still rock solid stable under Heaven, Kombustor obviously nope. At this point I think Kombustor/Fur Mark is not meant to be run under high OC conditions.

yeah, they introduced powerlimit because kombuster/furmark generally tend to draw maximum power and then some which may fry the Chip.
my suggestion would be just overclock and test using Afterburner (Precision X) / Heaven (Or any other preferred app / game / benchmark)

I would really love to see your heaven Score

Happy Overclocking!

Will post it soon. I do remember that a while back nvidia introduced some kind of limiting for Fur Mark and most tech sites had to come up news ways to test the cards for the reviews.

So... MSI GTX 970 @ 1500/1813 mhz and i5-2500k @ 4400 Mhz

Guys is this normal for my laptop graphic card?
I'm having problems when i'm playing games now.. But I used to have a smooth gameplay... I updated my driver formatted pc and done everything I can.. I need help Is it just my graphic card faulty?

Your card isn't faulty, it's just very low end and a few years old now. This is a demanding benchmark, much more demanding than most modern games, but most modern games won't run well on your card. If you want to run modern games better, I'm afraid all you can do is get a new computer.

I think my last one was higher

are you running your GTX 780 at Stock?

Correct. 1464 -> 1446

Just saw the updated leaderboard with my score sliding in 45th place, thanks FX-GMX.

I did notice something when comparing my score with other 970s (that filter btw, is a stroke of genius, makes searching and comparing a breeze). Sirillya score, 1538, on 43rd place has the clocks at 1304/1913 with my score of 1518 on 45th with 1500/1813 and Optinumb on 40th place with a score of 1559 and clock at 1560/1952. (I also ran a 1543 score with 1500/1900, will post that shortly). Basically I dont think Sirillya's clocks of 1304 mhz is actual boost clock, but rather the one reported by GPU-Z (which is always lower than the actual one), it's not a big thing but for consistency's sake that clock should be updated in the chart (it should be somewhere around 1450-1500, just a guesstimate), Makes Optinumb's and my 970 look stupid with similar score but 200 mhz less

And, a bit off topic, but just saw it on the news, the new Afterburner 4.1.0, whoa, what do you think? I'm so used to the old one that this one looks scary complicated

Just tested it, old skin is still available.

Here goes, my new oc'ed bechmark:

MSI GTX 970 @ 1500/1900 mhz and i5-2500k @ 4400 Mhz. A score of 1543 should move me up to 43rd postion (coincidence? 1543 -> 43 ). Sorry about the Intel HD Graphics showing up in there, Windows keeps reinstalling it after I remove it, I hope it's not a problem, if it is, let me know, I will redo the bench.
