Nvidia Pascal - GT / GTX10xx Owners Club [With Poll

[Shou Miko]

I had to vote GTX 1070 I own MSI's Gaming X version and the GTX 1080 is just too expensive of what u get out of it in my country.

Maximum OC results may vary but the FE cards seem to be fairly good OCers overall, just use a custom fan profile in afterburner.

I don't have a FE but these are my afterburner OC settings for my MSI GTX1070 Gaming X, my card doesn't like to be overclocked much on the core, the vram(samsung) is no problem.

Nice. I managed to squeeze +150 on my core and just under +700 on my memory all with a +10 core voltage bump and powerlimit at +120.

I could probably go a bit higher

I have been higher on vram but somehow my valley score got worse after that...!?

http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/18217025 so a big difference with the i5 running at 3.9/4 vs the old fx8320 1070 is only set to 75 core and 400 memory in afterburner.

That's what happens with GDDR5 when it's past its point of no return. The OC on it is basically unstable.. but the error checking keeps it "stable" (kinda guessing).

 

[Grings]

dont latencies also get higher/more relaxed at certain frequencies?

i know it did with older gddr

The memory on the 1080s is really odd. 550 and under seems to be rock solid, anything above that, and it's all over the place. One time it'll run great at +850, then the very next run it'll drop 6 fps on the graphics scores. Personally, I think it's buggin out half the time....it's near crashing, and just barely manages to stay stable enough to keep from crashing the driver, but unstable enough that it's wildly unpredictable. I won't run mine at anything over +560, even for benching. If it's buggy enough that one run gives +6 fps, and another run gives -6fps then something's wrong. Just the fact that people are gaining 6-10 fps just by going from +550 to +750 offset tells me everything I need to know. They want to take those benchmark scores...more power to them. I have more integrity than that. lol

Looking good!

Well the maximum GPU temp during benchmarking is just around 60s , do you think it has any use to set the temp limit higher than 83?

@flmatter this is my 3d mark Firestrike score with these OC settings from above:
http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/15300177?

83 degrees is not the start of thermal throttling , it is the max temp , throttling will start at a much lower temp , and slowly ramp up the throttling as the temp rises . Just set your temp to the max setting , this will give you the maximum headroom and least throttling .

 

[Vellinious]

Not really....boost 3.0 is going to raise voltage / lower clocks about every 10c or so, regardless of what the "temp target" is at.

 

[P4-630]

Uhmm... How about these clocks @GreiverBlade

I should post my firestrike score up. I ran the bench last and pulled almost 17000 points

 

[FreedomEclipse]

Heres my score...

And heres a random user with a 1080 with almost identical specs as me that i used to compare against.

You need to look at your "Graphics score" in your case 20306 (thats the core @ stock speed?)

This was mine best sofar: Graphics score: 21169

I think the difference is from my board only being PCI-Ex 2.0 and windows 7 Hence why i pulled up a user with a X79 platform to compare directly to. And no, thats the Core with +120 offset on the core, I used to have it at +150 but I started crashing in BF1. Im not sure if its my memory which is unstable or my core but i'll find out soon enough

If you have one of the first batch, I know you have samsung vram, I think you should be able to clock your vram at least to 2400.

My core doesn't want to OC that much, my vram though can run up to 2415 (no artifacts).

 

[FreedomEclipse]

I already have +610 offset on the memory (used to be 630 but started crashing) I'll probably need to slowly bump up the core or ram one at the time to see which is the one thats causing the instability . I think its the memory though because when BF1 crashes, the screen goes all funny before hitting the desktop.

my graphics score is nearly identical to yours. I am also running PCI-E 16x 2.0

 

[F-Zero]

Best graphic score i could get in FireStrike with my G1 1070 was 21 272. The samsung memory clocks great.

now that i'm financially better off i'm pondering what kind of upgrade i'd get moving from my 3770 to a 7500k/7600k... has anyone made that jump (from a 4.5ghz OC + fast DDR3 ram) and seen gains with a 10x0?

Keep hearing of less stuttering, and higher framerates from people that moved off of a i5-4670K, i7-4770K/4790K, and especially i5-2500K, i7-2600K to the newer i7-7700K even when re-using a Geforce GTX 970. They thought the GTX 970 was limiting the framerate when it was the older overclocked (for those overclocking) Intel CPU.

If the 7600k is cheap. Just do it

 

[Mussels]

tis not cheap at all... i'll be selling off my 3rd and 4th systems to achieve the upgrade (and it wont be for a few months, we're talking $1k au just to get a 6/7 series K chip mobo and ram)

Just had a quick look, and the 7600K is an i5 and $335, so with a board to match should be around $700

Better off just going for Ryzen in that case, Get a nice 1600X or 1700. I mean, if youre going to be going down the route of a new board & CPU anyway you might as well get it over and done with.
