780 Ti user experience

Just flashed to the evga superclock acx bios. The card boosts to 1150 or higher on its own. I feel like I got a golden chip. Not the best overclocker in regards to what Ive read but it sure is nice running very cool and capable of good clock speeds with low voltage.
 
The acx superclock bios also stabilized my clocks speeds greatly. Before they were all over the place.

You should give it a try.
 
I am not doing anything fancy with my 780 Ti but it boosts to 1124mhz and stays there in games that push it, while sitting around 78c. I'm happy with the 250mhz boost, so no plans to mess with it.
 
bf4 @ 1440p (2xmssaa ultra settings 125% res scale) at 1200mhz core 7600mhz mem = 45-60fps. impressive for one card but damn I need my second 780 Ti to get here. evga needs to hurry it up with my step-up for my second 780 Ti.
 
As well it should be, if the objective is to complete a benchmark a certain amount of stability is required.

lol @ 8000MHz though.

Since when did the people at OCN care about stability? As long as it completes a benchmark run they're fine.

Indeed. Take all OCN top 30/top 50 benchmarks with a grain of salt because they're not representative of real world or stable 24/7 performance. I used to participate in the benchmarks over there, and all of those guys do nothing but suicide runs with borderline stable overclocks - if it completes the benchmark and BSODs or TDRs 5 seconds later, it's a valid result. This is the rule and not the exception - I did the same thing when I participated. None of those top 30 lists are real world results, generally speaking.
 
I believe that if a benchmark is run at speeds that are not usable for 24/7 use then the benchmark results are meaningless.

I honestly believe my stock bios has issues. While performance is great, clocks speeds fluctuate so much that it makes no sense what its going on. Clock speeds will go down with less than 99% gpu usage but power target will be at maxed out while only using 1.01 volts or something. Then it will jump to 1.15 volts and boost higher for a couple seconds and and power target will drop. It's so erratic. With a different bios (in my case Superclock) clocks speeds changes have smoothed out to mirror what I used to see with 3 different 780's and a couple of Titans.

Something was definitely screwy with my original bios.

I must have a poor mem overclocker then. I can get to 7800MHz, at 7900Mhz i get artifacts.

luck of the draw. My Asic, if you put any weight in that is 87.6%. It does high clocks (IMO) at just 1.01 volts. If vendor bios's would allow for under volting I would see how low I could go for kicks.
 
Damn 87.6? Thats the highest I've seen for the Ti

Mine is only 70.9%. Still very satisfied with it though, 1.2ghz @ 1.125 volts. Hoping I can maintain that clock speed in SLi.
 
So whats the statistical average for Overclocks?
Stock Cooler, stock bios:
Stock Cooler, Modified bios:

Stock Cooler, stock bios: 1.2ghz if your lucky but the clock speed will bounce around (going lower than 1.2ghz)
Stock Cooler, Modified bios: I would say 1.2ghz is pretty much guaranteed
 
lol its true. Nvidia tweaked how gpu boost works on the 780 ti I think. On the stock bios my voltage and clock speed was all over the place.
 
Anyone with an overclocked (any cooler, or even water) 780TI that can run a couple benchmarks for me, with comparable CPU/mem.
Thinking maybe Tomb Raider, Unigine Valley, at 1080P or ideally 1440P.


I want to compare to my 680SLI's at 1.2ghz each.

I wanna get out of using SLI, but if a 780ti is too much a downgrad ein Performance,m then it's not worth the 300+$ offset

I posted some benchmarks over at rage3d:

My cpu is only @ 4.4ghz though

edit: if you view the whole thread theres a couple unigine benchmarks in there too
