download the new gpu-z 0.5.8
run it
right click on the title bar and click ASIC quality
for multi-gpu users it will only tell u one card at a time, switch the cards at the bottom and it will tell u the score for that gpu
here's my ASIC quality:
GPU 1: GTX580 SC EVGA 84.9%
GPU 2: GTX580 SC EVGA 77.7%
both stock voltage of 1.088, stock SC clocks
I don't like this discrepancy
both bought at the sametime from evga (dunno if that matters), approx 3-4 months after the 580's released
 
"We've found the ways in which AMD and NVIDIA segregate their freshly-made GPU ASICs based on the electrical leakages the chips produce (to increase yield by allotting them in different SKUs and performance bins), and we've found ways in which ASIC quality can be quantified and displayed. Find this feature in the context menu of GPU-Z. We're working on implementing this feature on older AMD Radeon GPUs."
 
so what's yours?
someone wanna compile a spreadsheet?

GTX 570 1 87.5%
GTX 570 2 101.1%

I'm confused about what this ASIC quality actually means, and how can it be over 100%?
 
My first 570 is 102.0%, second is 89.7%.

Interesting because both of my cards are regular 570s. Though our cards are different cards, so it'd be more interesting to see if I have higher numbers than say, someone with a "better" 570 model.

Yeah I dont really understand this rating either. My card with the lower rating runs cooler than the one with the higher rating although I have no idea how well they can overclock.

OP, I have the exact same GPU's as you and I have two:

GPU 1: GTX580 SC EVGA 84.6%
GPU 2: GTX580 SC EVGA 75.4%

Also on GPU-Z.0.58 it says my second 580 is running on PCI 1.1 and not PCI 2.0

idle it will downclock to save power
run it again during load, such as the new built in stress render test (click the ?)
it makes me a feel lil better inside that your ASIC quality is almost the same as mine

73.7% GTX460 SC 1gb 256bit.

1st 580: 58%
2nd 580: 85.7%
 
lol what a diff 

Vanilla 580 - 105.1

Can someone explain what ASIC is?

I'm with this guy and I want to know as well.

So does this mean that GPU-Z is testing our cards for electrical leakage? "...we've found ways in which ASIC quality can be quantified and displayed." oh yeah...how so. If the information being displayed (tested?) is accurate then it looks as if Nvidia is doing a poor job of binning their cards...or the numbers are suspect.

both my 580 classys read 68%ish.... so um i dont get it

85.7% on my GTX 570 HD in my Main system
 
66.6% on my GTX 570 in my second system
68.9% on my GTX 460 in my second system

its just the opposite for me, my second system cards with lower score run hotter then my main system card with higher score
 
it might depend on the age of the card to cause I had my GTX 570 HD about 2 months, and my second system cards about 8 or 9 months. I also have different Nvidia drivers on both systems so not sure if that makes a difference or not.
