I dont know what my issue is with my Port royal scores, is it my temps hitting 50C the issue?
I see someone with a 2205 clock set with average 2172 according to 3dmark, 41c average temps mem clock 1422(1219) and gets 15786 score
I cant even break 15600 at similar clock -_-
Edit-I feel like having my GPU near end of loop is not helping me with temps
Your problem is your clocks are not accurate..
Look at these screenshots..
First one is when I open Afterburner and lock my OC to 2205@1.1v with VF curve.
You can see AB and GPU Z see 2205Mhz, but HWinfo shows the Effective clock is wayyy off..
In the second screenshot, I used Classified tool.
Disabled "Auto" and added to the NVVDD and MSVDD.. and now you can see all the clocks match.
Temps are not your problem, check this run I did where I hit 55c. (In the case with panels on, 21c ambient room temp)
PR 16,017 I believe this is the guy you're referring to:
PR 15,786His clocks are lower than yours, but the effective clock is probably more accurate, and he has more thermal head room since only hitting 41c.
- He can probably score higher with more voltage/better tuning.
TLDR: Check and make sure your CLOCKS MATCH, then run your benches..
