EVGA RTX 3090 Kingpin & Intel Core i9-12900K Set New 3DMark Port Royal Record

[Uskompuf]

The 3DMark Port Royal single card benchmark has a new record of 20,014 set by South Korean overclocker biso biso for Team EVGA. The overclocker used an Intel Core i9-12900K running at 5.4 GHz on an EVGA Z690 Dark Kingpin motherboard paired with the EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 Kingpin overclocked to 2,895 MHz. The system also featured 16 GB of DDR5 memory running at 6000 MHz from SK Hynix along with liquid nitrogen for cooling and Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme thermal paste on the CPU and GPU. This new record beats the previous record of 19,600 also from biso biso which featured the Core i9-10900K and RTX 3090 Kingpin.

Armed with the latest hardware, including an EVGA Z690 DARK K|NGP|N motherboard, and an EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 K|NGP|N running at a blistering 2,895 MHz GPU clock, extreme overclocker "biso biso" set a new single-GPU standard for 3DMark Port Royal with a score of 20,014! This marks the first ever 3DMark Port Royal (single card) score over 20,000 and a testiment to the capabilities of the highest performing EVGA products.

I am not a pro here.

Are 400 points that much? Considering the gen change?

But can it run New World?

With the Kingpins cards VRM for sure...

 

[Crackong]

I am disappointed this isn't achieved by EVGA Roboclocker

This was my first thought, too!

The reviews are saying that the 12th Gen is 15-25% faster than the 11th Gen, and probably double that over the 10th Gen, and the actual top of the line difference seems to be barely 2-3%? What am I missing here?

Every 3090 can run New World at least once.

Port Royal is a GPU benchmark so it's obvious that a faster CPU wouldn't matter much. What this shows is how good the 10900K actually is. Plus, his 3090 is clocked higher than the second score both on core and memory.

If the GPU is the bottleneck it will not show significant improvement if you slap a way faster CPU. This means the GPU can't go any faster and CPU does not matter here no matter how fast it is.
This could only tell you that with this benchmark the 11th gen Intel CPU is fast enough for NVidia's 3090's.

That Kingpin 3090 sure looks sexy as hell

All hail green sticc!

How much power does it pull o.o

Much.

 

[YouTubeChicken]

Much.

Bruh haha, I'm genuinely curious tho. Wouldn't the card be limited by the 3 8-Pin PCIe Power and the 75W from the motherboard if it pulls more than 525W ?

Yup the Kingpin 3090 stock BIOS allows max TDP of 520W, however there is XOC BIOS which allow 1000W TDP, not recommended for everyday use.

So let's say someone is using the XOC BIOS, ow would the card even pull more than 525W ? Isn't it physically limited? I've seen kingpin cards pull 700+W , But I'm just not too sure how , the math doesn't add up lol.

Usually you'd use an external addon power supply. EVGA used to sell one way back when...

Or risk a fire. That's cool too... kinda.

Risking a fire sounds like fun hehe

Well PCIe specs say each 8pins power is rated for 150W, however good quality 8pins power cables can handle 400W each without issue. If you use stock power cables that come with good quality PSU, drawing 600+W from 3x8 PCIe power is fine for long term usage.

The only time when something could go wrong is when people use poor quality custom power cables.

Ahhh i see, so technically it's not a "hard limit" , just that 8pin power cables are designed are recommended for 150W each then.
