almost exactly what i got with my 1080 when i downclocked it.

i didn't see your scores. what were they?

i think my g-sinc monitor limits my maximum fps.. i never seem to see anything higher than 144 now.. looking back at some runs done on an earlier monitor the max was around 240 and the score 6300.. this was 1080.. this would explain why i dont see much difference between 1440 and 1080.. this probably applies to anything that tries to bang out extra high frame rates much over 144.. ..

that would make sense.

try disabling gsync and see if it changes

You must turn off G-SYNC in *two* locations in the Nvidia Control Panel. You must uncheck it on the GSync tab, and you have to turn it off in Manage 3D Settings. Scroll all the way down to Vertical Sync and you'll see an option that says "G-SYNC" with the Nvidia logo next to it

+1... this isn't a time to save power and limit frames in a benchmark Trog. Run those cards like they were meant to for once! :p

Same clocks on the GTX1080 : 2100 core / 5100 memory. Just tossed the 6700K in and ran it stock with bios set to default. Score jumped 1000 points!!

all very true if benchmarking is your game.. he he

i run them when i first get stuff "just to see" but i am long past that now :)

as you know i normally run a 75 fps cap.. 75 fps being plenty enough for me.. :)

its only with looking back to an old valley score done before i got the g-sinc monitor that makes it obvious that its my g-sinc monitor even though its not set to do it limiting my max fps to 144-ish.. i commented because i thought it was of interest..

my old score from a while back.. pre g-sinc days..

Bumped my X5670 to 4GHz and got a score increase of about 39% (Vs. 3.2GHz CPU & 1250/2000MHz GPU's) with my 2x 780 Ti's @ 1200/1750MHz 1.212V.

CPU speed really makes the difference in this bench.

It does with multiple gpus, yep. they need to be properly driven, particularly at these settings.

And thats and old cpu.. makes sense. you sense. you'd see less sense recalling with a faster processor that isn't limiting the gpus:)

I propose we run this bench at 1600x900 like they do elsewhere and compare CPUs instead.

Much more interesting. These 1080's all score the same anyway :)

your missing the point of the thread. its supposed to help people see what they can expect fom certain configurations.

if any of the settings change. every single run would need to be run again at those new settings for the scores to hold any meaning and be any use at all.

I added a 4k section. run that res as its the next standard. ty

Edit, disregard this run, new one a few posts down :)

Here's my run,

6700k @ 4.6ghz (does cpu effect scores much in Valley? I'll do another run at 4.7ghz if it does.)
2x gtx titan 6gb at 1224mhz / 3460mhz

I don't think that 100MHz will give you a much better score, since this benchmark should be GPU bound, not CPU, curious though if it does...

i have found its more CPU clock rather than cores that improves performance

Nope, enabled. I just realized that last run was actually done at 4.6ghz, must have forgot to save changes in bios.
I might try without HT later on tonight.

Run #2

6700k @ 4.7ghz
both cards same clocks as before, 1224/3460

valley 4.7_1224_3460_2.png

Edit: Run #3 (last one, sorry for spamming) 7037! :D Go little Keplers! :rockout:

Same on cpu, gpu's are clocked at 1236/3460

Did you do a valley run with HT disabled?

@Athlon2K15

Sorry but I don't agree this with you:
https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/...uld-it-be-worth-it.227477/page-2#post-3552392

You have every right to disagree, one fact is this benchmark isnt very consistent. Its hard to replicate results even with the same exact systems. I mean you and I had identical systems for the most part 6500 and 1070s and your scores were 400 points higher than mine. After getting the 1080 and the 6700K i have found that clocking higher nets me more performance, that could be do to relieving a bottleneck that previous CPUs had with the 1080

Yeah long journey from a RX480 to a GTX 1080. Lots of money wasted in between.
