Hey guys. I've been using EVGA products for years and they've been amazing. Anyway, I bought this EVGA GTX 1080 Superclocked last week and installed it.
 
After days of tweaking, this thing is still underperforming massively IMO.
 
I did a few Unigine Valley benchmarks..
 
First score before clearing drivers..
FPS:87.8
Score:3675
Min FPS:22.4
Max FPS:150.0
 using 8x AA

Second score, cleared drivers. USING 4x AA

FPS:
103.2
Score:
4319
Min FPS:
23.0
Max FPS:
169.0
 
 
Third score, overclocked CPU to 4 GHz USING 4x AA
FPS:
115.5
Score:
4834
Min FPS:
35.4
Max FPS:
192.2
 
 
These numbers are still pretty bad. I mean it's an improvement over the beginning number. I don't get what's wrong with my setup. My GTX 770 got reasonably similar performance numbers..
 
My rig:
EVGA GTX 1080 SC
32 GB Corsair Ram DDR3 Quad Channel RAM
1200 watt PSU
ASUS Rampage IV Extreme MOBO
Intel Core i7 3930k OC to 4 GHz
 
I cleaned the drivers with DDU and forced Gen 3 on my card as well. Still pretty poor performance. Any ideas?
 

Yes, you are probably CPU limitated, because when you overclock your cpu, you have better score.
But it's just bench, I guess you wont be limited ingame.

Well I can tell you from experience the 1080GTX is 25% faster than 770 Sli. That's what I replaced when I slapped in my 1080 GTX F|E from Evga. I noticed a large performance increase over my 770 SC Sli. 
Using a i5 4690k @ 4.7GHZ on a Asus Sabertooth Mark 2 Z97 board-
Valley 1.0 
EVGA 770 SLI =95.6 fps
EVGA 1080GTX F|E= 109-113 fps

 
 
Heaven 4.0 
EVGA 770 SC SLI- 109-111 fps
EVGA 1080 GTX F|E= 135-137 fps
 
Firestrike 1080p
EVGA 770 SLI= 12,170 highest bench

EVGA 1080 GTX F|E 16,717

 
Huge difference between 770 SLI and a 1080 GTX!
You mentioned you were just using 1x 770 GTX? that's pretty crazy to say that a 8GB Vram card with GDDR5X is even comparable to a single 2GB VRam 770 GTX!

Thank you.
It's running Gen 3 at x16. (It was running Gen 2 until I forced it to Gen 3).
Motherboard's BIOS is updated. I will get back to you on Fire Strike.

Third score looks about right for 1080p... http://www.overclockerscl...founders_edition/9.htm

I wonder when Unigine's Heaven Benchmark 4.x is going to support DirectX 12

Heaven benchmark = Valley benchmark? Thereabouts anyway?
