Is there an official thread for scores for this? :) Id like to see how everyone is making out with '11
 
I can kick one off if you'd like. Though I still have to update the 05 and 06 threads I started... :(
 
Hah! I think it would be neat to see how peoples systems fare for the grand release.. Just had a friend with a stock clocked 920 and an ati 5970 get a P6713... I will have to wait until I get home ;(
 
Just post a few in here. Screenshots or verification links, take your pick. I'll *TRY* to update the OP with user-submitted results.
 
This test is death to current hardware! Nice!

Weird also that 10.10 drivers are not supported? I may revert back to 10.9.

Stock CPU (3.3GHz) no HT, GPU @ 775/1550/1800.

EDIT: Scaling for CPU and HT sucks. I raised my clocks to 4Ghz, added HT, bumped GPU up 25 on core, and scored only 280 more points. Bumped GPU up again (825) and scores another 200 or so. Sitting at 5528 now with this 470.

What can I say ( at least about basic version ) is that test is ugly, short and I was expecting something better ...
Using physx won't change score ( I got 1 mark difference after turning off physx on my card ), all based on direct compute so better for rankings. Still it's better to use physx, why ? ... because it's not using cpu so much in last tests and at least I had to lower cpu clock a bit so it wouldn't crash ( seems like it's not using multi cores in most tests except physics but I didn't have time check all ).
 
Potential warning after installing this and running SLI...

guys...whatever you do, don't run 3DMark Vantage with 3DMark11 installed, coz:

Vantage will show corrupt graphics you might think your cards gone bad (in SLI atleast, was OK with ONE card..dunno about Crossfire) and still does so even after uninstalling both apps, and re-installing Vantage. Changing drivers won't help, but a System Restore ! google this and you'll find many threads, one at futuremark, one evga etc etc
 
I cant believe the difference in the results between a 470 and a 5870. Its like over 500 marks! I guess its time to start shopping around for a new card!
 
Dont go by sythetic performance, go by game performance. ;)

Unless you are a benchmarker. :chair:

OP updated with results. Preliminarily, seems the generational difference from C2Q to i7 (and Thuban) -and thus either double the threads or 50% more cores- does make a difference, even if higher clocks don't help all that much.

EDIT - To make things easier for whichever mod edits the OP, only the top score will be listed. Thanks!
 
Word...but I was answersing Tokae more than being a generic statement.

To the contrary...sort of.

The jump I made from 3.3Ghz no HT to 4Ghz w/HT (and a 25 core clock speed increase on the 470), net me about 280 points. When I jumped another 25 core and left it as is, I jumped 150 points. So 700Mhz of clock speed and HT was good for 100 points.

EDIT: Now I realize that is wholly unscientific and probably not right, but one would think such a drastic difference would net a bit more than 2%...

EDIT2: See post 28 for actual details. Apparently Im tired as all get out and butchering my numbers.

I definitely do! :) But I still cannot help it that I like to run these tests and see how my hardware fares. When are the 6990's due out? :O
