Reason: Gave thread a better title and moved it to Benchmarking - the idea being that this becomes the official 3DMark 11 thread. :)

:lol:

My GTX 460 is a Super Overclocked EVGA version. 3DMark is installed on my 10,000 RPM drive and I have 4GB of RAM. I know my bottleneck in performance is my proc but I just dont have the money right now to upgrade :(.

hey jelly - me thinks ur got a golden sample HD5850 :-D

so i did sum research yesterday & this is what i found:

1.) 3D mark 11 is less cpu sensitive than the others.the reason i say this is that my score of stock 2.8ghz is 40 points (!) lower than it on 4.2ghz...40 points for such a boost in speed....wth

2.) its very sensitive to Gpu speeds though - if my card is on stck 850mhz core / 4800mhz mem it gives me the score in my post - however jus 50mhz more on the core jumps my score almost 300 points higher...

so now i want to know....what programs can i use for GPU overclocking? msi afterburner & ati overdrive only allows up to 900Mhz on the core & i want to go a bit further...

and jelly - what clocks is your card running @?

lolz :lol: i noticed it had nothing to do with this thread but great read anyway 8)

that link is one the spot R3D - 3d mark 11 is very different from vantage & such + its got a very poor scoring system...

i guess the biggest thing that bugs me is that cpu speed / cores etc has little to no effect on scores - i mean wasnt that what DX11 promised in the first place - improved multi-threaded support?

i guess we all knew someone would start complaining cuz that happens after every 3D mark is released :lol: ...but IMO it seems very off as a benchmark....

Smiley im running my card at 850/1200 stock volts....your stock clock speeds.... but im on the verge of over volting try for 950-1000 core...... jus gota watch my temps....
i totally agree tho theres something not so right about 3dmark11 cant quite put my finger on it but, from a scoring perspective i was also pretty dissapointed when i ran at stock speeds on cpu vs oc speeds....

i wont lie its quite a let down... vantage is still the best in my eyes to see how much an overclock will effect 'real world gaming'(can't really call it that but still helps to judge how much more power you getting out your system...)

hopefully a patch of some sort will be released to fix this but i doubt it.....

thanks bro... i bumped my voltage up to th 5870's voltage( our cards have the same core so thought would be a good place to start) so my voltage went from 1.09v to 1.15v got it at 960/4920 stable now! temps max temp was 67C with fan at 38 percent..... looking for that 1000 core sometime tho will try soon... my memory is maxed out wont go any further.... would love it at 1000/5000 though.... will post my score when i run 3dmark11 again at these clocks... keen to see the difference....

ok well guys its seems the HD6970 has been benched....

here some nice pics of the card for you...

Image

Image

...and a 3d Mark 11 score - here IMO is proof of the really weird scoring system....

Image

under extreme profile this card only scores X1776 :?

i mean how can a brand new card get an odd 200 - 300 points more than the old card.... something not right there... :?

Don't remind me. I am dying under the weight of NDAs. Certain new processors and GPUs are sitting here and I can't even say their model numbers
