    WHATS UP WITH 3d11!!??

    Nice compo :)

    Hmm, so 10 times difference between 3Dmark Vantage Performance and 3Dmark11 Performance in percentage way.

     

    Easy math:

     

    I took average of those low-high pairs in each benchmark with 1P and 2P and what we get?

     

    3Dmark11 P : +1.35% increase in total result score in 2P system vs 1P. (15906.5 avg pts vs 15695 avg pts)

     

    3Dmark Vantage P: +10.37% increase in total results 2P vs 1P (43846 avg pts vs 48393.5 avg pts)

     

    Almost 10 times difference.

     

    And I bet difference between benchmarks even increase with higher delta's between CPU frequency diff 1P vs 2P.

    We all know that X5000 series CPU's locked multi, what limits SR-2 only to Vantage actually in cases of 3w/4w SLI, from what we see.

    Windows 8 anyone?

    in Benchmark software

    Saw S_A_V's result in PCM :D

    Win8 leaked on torrents few weeks ago, very early version, but at least possible to run some benchmarks.

    Anyone tried?

     

    Right now I installed 7989 build, but unable to run CPU-Z and most benchmarks, it freeze system, only mouse moving, but nothing happen.

    Same with 3Dmark03. Aquamark, superpi works.

     

    Heaven unable to run bench on xtreme, says D3D fail change resolution etc.

     

    Tried on EVGA P67 platform with GTX 590's, driver from NV 275.33.

    Yea, aqua is tricky.

     

    I just dont get point why even to bother with points privileges for benchmarks. All benchmarks are different, why even to compare them. Just lets have points on all and stop this BS. No one complains about having superpi 1M points but not having 3Dmark Vantage Entry points yes? But all know that Entry Vantage is all about MT CPUs only :D

     

    Gatman is right, good question! My bet there is no solid reasons, so that's why we have 8 page discussion on one simple question :)

    Prolly not all realize, that its much harder to bench 11 high that aq or any other old benchmark.

    Need some hard facts?

     

    Game 4, Reference GTX 580 , 1255MHz GPU, 2500MHz memory clocks, -100c.

    Power draw from PSU (ONLY videocard, +12V rail)

    840W, brown colored measurement field, at right.

     

    Aquamark, same stuff.

    aqua.png

    470W, same colored measurement at right.

     

    3D03 Nature, same settigns

    nature03.png

    590W.

     

    Vantage gametests is about 680W.

    So I think not all "hardcore not-guys" just able to handle this system just to get score, i'm not talking about records even :D

    And Aquamark is wonderful bench for PR, you can even make WR with two aircards on stock clocks, just enough to have 7G 990x or 6.1G 2600K :D VERY 3D-demanding skillful benchmark, memory tweaking YEAH.

     

    P.S. I LOVE Aquamark btw, my favorite test.

     

    P.P.S Antec 1200W was used for this testing

    Why we just cannot have both, Unigine is cool, and 3d11 is power-crazy-demanding on GPUs. Both are nice in own way. Just get it awarded same, top-guys anyway are very few who have best hardware in any benchmarks, no matter if it's superpi, 3d01 or 3d11.

     

    11 now is just pulls out all juice what GPU can do, every single amp from it. 3d03 puts twice less loading on GPU VRMs.
