So I've been playing with MSI 680 lightning and a classified 680. 
Something happened with 3D maek 11. Scores went way down, all settings the same. 
Did a clean driver install and 3D mark 11 install. I get very similar results with either card. It's like 3D 11 is trying to run the graphics tests at a constant fps no peaks no valleys. What happened? All settings the same.

 The same is not true for vantage


A directx thing? re installed that also.
 

 Thanks hellshealer, But after much frustration turns out was the monitor. 
Single 680

 

Any of you guys see Vince's latest work?

lesson here guys, dont be an A-hole at work.... you get FIRED!
 
 
 

where did you get all of those fans halo?

Halo_003

I know some guys. More are on the way too, but those are just Sickle Flows.

 
you have the fan hookups haha

Halo_003

Indeed I do.....

Or pretty much any Cooler Master Product that I need. 

 
Lucky! Coolermaster makes great products. My UCP 1100w is going strong as ever although the fact that its non modular is a total bummer but my HAF 932 does a decent job of hiding it

Nice Walleye, what's your cooling and max clock?

Sorry to hear that Hells, that sucks! 

Stock cooling  1385 core +380ram.

 
Seems pretty good to me.

Let me know if you want a Silent Pro Hybrid in the future. I have a spare 850W at the moment. 

2 680's with phyx CPU@5.0

what ive noticed is with certain benchmarking programs (like OCscanner) the pixel clock limit imposed by the new drivers is responsible for lower scores as it prevents higher framerates. using toastyX's pixel clock unlocker, i went from 70 fps in OCscanner, to 1384 fps..... so apparently nvidia's own software is causing this. i still love toasty for the fix!! :D

So why does this happen with one monitor and not another? Is there a fix?

there is, go to 120hz . net and look for toastyX's pixel clock unlocker, i have it installed, works perfectly :) it should make that problem go away.
 
also i should add, the reason why this would happen to one monitor and not the other (assuming they are on the same setup) is that the pixel clock limit is on the dvi's. so if your using hdmi/dvi setup, the dvi side will be pixel clock locked. there is more to it than that, of which i dont know much about, but thats the basics from what ive read. use the unlocker and everything should be fine.

The lesson is don't be an **** anywhere.
 
:P

Not sure if John will see this but I was curious if this is worth buying to build a SS or dual stage with.

If I was to get it I'd be using a kayl evap and a 2-4ft lineset. Would be shooting for -45C 250W load SS, or -90-100C 250W load 2stage.

 So what is better for chilled water below freezing, antifreeze, windshield washer fluid, or something else?
