ooohhhh!!!! manny doing a triple throwdown on bassnut!!!! it's popcorn time!!!!!

LOL C/d I'm just saying the 970 should be able to top my 780 but it will need to be pushed. My memory doesn't Oc worth a damn but the Cores sure do. I can't complain with a +441 Oc on the cores.

I'll also add for Bassnut try working on your memory if you can't get it higher try tightening the timings up. Especially the TFrc I don't know how much of a difference it will make but 300+ sure seems excessively loose.

 

[bassnut]

Those timings are in Auto ....... I didn't realize that till late this aft. There is work to be done still but this is all new to me from switching to Intel GPU overclocking and benchmarking. I'll try some of what you have said tomorrow if I get a chance Manny.

@CD ...... my memory speed I had to turn down some I was up around 2000 as well as I went up in my LOD settings, my driver was crashing. Not sure if this is because the card is getting heat soaked or something else. I can get memory up but have to sacrifice the core speed. I think I am gonna pick up a waterblock for the card ...... another $175 ...... we'll see what the future will bring.

 

[Mandrake4565]

Just get a universal Gpu block and some heatsinks.

 

[bassnut]

I've gone beyond worrying about cost on this build now. That went out the window when I decided to upgrade my loop....... and the new graphics card ..... lol you get the picture I'm sure.

IF anyone has tips on AMD cards I'm all ears. They're not my specialty and somehow I seem to have a few of them?

 

[Witchdoctor]

The big deal is you ca turn tessellation off in ccc

That is about it ? I am all ears as well

 

[Mandrake4565]

Other then turning off Tessellation it's the same as Ocing any other Gpu.
