SF3D Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Hi! I finally received 1 sample. I didn't test any default clockspeeds because web is full of articles. I directly tried 1150MHz/1700MHz settings with 100% fan speed. It went through all the tests without any issues Then I quickly tried to find max clockspeeds on stock aircooling. Here are the first scores with 1250/1800 and 1230/1800: These are sick cards! I raise my hat and bow to ATI.. or AMD to be exact. Next propably watercooling and modifications and next week some ln2.

phil Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Nice.What voltages on core and mem for those clocks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew stummerwinter Posted December 31, 2011 Crew Share Posted December 31, 2011 Nice start, 3D11 looks not too strong, did you use any tweaks there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoF Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Physik Score is a bit off... Guess he was running the cpu at low speed Nice start and thanks for sharing! nailed that heaven woohaa Edited December 31, 2011 by SoF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 I used 3Dmark11 1.0.3 version which should be the one we all work with. In other benchmarks we use latests versions, so why we don't do it with this one? CPU was at 5GHz so score is just normal. Did some watercooled runs earlier today and got a bit better scores with 1275MHz/1800MHz. Next mods and ln2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteLion Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Nice Scores.......now i wait for the second touch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazzan Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Nice Score Petri... can you try too on 3D 03 when you put on LN2 later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) Nice Score Petri... can you try too on 3D 03 when you put on LN2 later. I don't have good CPU for 03, so I will propably leave it. Here are the watercooled runs. My watercooling for VGA is not strong, so there was not that much help from it.

der8auer Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Nice results These cards realy have potential! Which voltages did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 Oh, now I see what was wrong. The 8.921.0.0 driver is very old. Updated the 8.921.2.0 driver and got 12.2K in 3Dmark11 Screens a bit later today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) Ok, here are the new screens. The 3DM11 was only benchmark which was giving bad scores with old driver. These results are made with max software voltages at the moment (1.25V / 1.75V) Watercooling was bad and block was used last time with GTX 7900 years a go. Nice that I still had it though. Dirty setup Hwbot unigine 3Dmark Vantage 3Dmark11 P 3Dmark11 X Now the card seems to be very strong Ok, time to hardmod now when some issues are solved.

subaruwrc Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 can i ask why cpu energy saving features are enabled? real great scores from you by the way. card looks real strong. 12k + in 3d11 is great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 Tried the card on ln2 today. Did hot wire mods with RIVE motherboard and that part worked well. There was a lot of issues with powertune and temperature. Powertune is causing totally random runs, if voltage or clockspeed is too high. I managed to get one almost correct run, but only with 1400mhz. Score was 13083 points. Temperature was another issue. -92C was locking up the system every time and -84C was causing no voltage on boot. I might be on rust, but maybe not this much.

OBR Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 you need shambos bios ... power tune is shit, you have to turn it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Yes, but no way to get it unfortunately. AMD/ATI should release it directly from Toronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBR Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 i think shambo will give us that bios after 01/09 ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreYang Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 what are you guys talking about bios? the bios only helps more range for gpu and memory clock at CCC control. thats it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hokiealumnus Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 what are you guys talking about bios? the bios only helps more range for gpu and memory clock at CCC control. thats it. This BIOS: http://hwbot.org/forum/showpost.php?p=145618&postcount=1 Without it, I had no voltage control. With it, I had voltage control and was quite happy. :woot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 No, I got the bios what I was looking for today. My card just had cold issues during that short session, so that might have caused all the weird behaviour. Will try more on the upcoming weekend, when we have small SF3D OC Gathering event in Finland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
