Re: Unigine Valley (DX11) Benchmark Scores
Here's mine:
Never stuttered once. I'm beginning to think its measurement methods are borked. Definitely Nvidia-biased, that's for sure.
Edit:
I don't know why the benchmark is specifying windowed, seems to me that most people play in full screen. Windowed diverts resources from the scene, especially when running something like Rainmeter for your desktop. I also don't know why it specifies 1600 x 900, when the standard for games is 1920 x 1080.
So, here's Extreme, but full screen:
Here is Extreme, at standard gaming resolution (1080p):
And here is uber settings that I would actually play at (2560 x 1440):
I did no optimizing of my computer's resources, these were taken with everything running that would normally be running when I play games. I suppose I could squeeze out more numbers by overclocking CPU and GPUs, especially the latter now that the warranty is up, but frankly it doesn't appeal to me. My games run just fine, no need to risk breaking anything.
Re: Unigine Valley (DX11) Benchmark Scores
try it again with crossfire. single 7970s beat gtx680s in this benchmark so you got something set wrong...
Re: Unigine Valley (DX11) Benchmark Scores
I was in Crossfire. Refresh page and see edit.
Also, the music sounds like something out of a Miyazaki film. I like it.
Re: Unigine Valley (DX11) Benchmark Scores
Oh there you go. Guess crossfire didn't like being in a window. It would make more sense to run with the Extreme HD with recent GPUs anyways.
Extreme HD
max
Re: Unigine Valley (DX11) Benchmark Scores
I did test at Extreme HD; it's the middle result of the edit section. :p
That's a respectable score you have there, for a single GTX 670. Especially at 2560x1600, for a single card that isn't even the top-end. Me, I know I'm under par, mostly because most 7970s are GHz-editions and also because I haven't overclocked. I've seen them hitting above 4000 at "Extreme HD" with similar set-ups to mine, even the CPU.
Edit:
Disabling Rainmeter and Steam netted me a whopping grand total of 5 extra points at the Extreme preset, windowed. See the magic:
Re: Unigine Valley (DX11) Benchmark Scores
Added an Extreme HD section to the OP.
Re: Unigine Valley (DX11) Benchmark Scores
Hey Warsaw, I added the two rigs from work to the OP like I said I would. They're under Extreme HD.

Re: Unigine Valley (DX11) Benchmark Scores
Triple SLI GTX 580's and a 570 for PhysX? 570 seems like huge waste of money just for PhysX.
I want pics of this system!
