I haven't used Heaven since valley came out. I do have a weird thing that happens running it. If I get low FPS, I reboot and then the numbers are significantly higher.

Would you mind posting the results of your 7950 running the same benchmark I did? I would be really curious to see the results.

 

[futurefields]

Please anybody with 7950 post your scores running the same benchmark.

Or anybody with any single GPU for that matter...

Why don't you download The Valley benchmark and run it at 1080p extreme HD presets? This is the most current benchmark and resolution to test your system with.

Looks fine to me, bump your memory to 1500 for GHz clocks and run it again, you should hit 39 fps.

Erm, check your PCIe lane speed OP, I get 44 fps at 1050/1500 2.0 x16, 39 with 1.1 x1 ()

Edit: I still think you should bump the memory to test, there is a memory hole after 1250 around 1300 which causes you to actually lose fps.

My results on your tests with stock 7950

FPS: 37.2
Score: 936
Min FPS: 15.8
Max FPS: 66.5

Why is my min so much lower than your 7870? Do these results seem right?

 

[futurefields]

Wow wtf.... my 7950 got

FPS: 37
Score: 932
Min FPS: 18.6
Max FPS: 83.5

Your 7800 series is whiping the floor with my 7950. THis card is for sure a dud.

^ Are you sure you guys are using the same settings? His 7870 XT overclocked is going to beat up your stock 7950. Once you overclock your 7950 it will be well past the 7870 XT.

 

[futurefields]

Face, he got almost 20 fps higher than me, and I have a 7950. This is not an overclock issue there is something wrong with my system.

 

[GrantMeThePower]

That score seems crazy high!!!

Compared to WataGump your score seems fine...? unless I am looking at it wrong. Don't worry about comparing it too another model, We need more 7950's to run the bench. I am not at home so I cannot help you

OP: Update your drivers to the new Beta's and see if that does anything?

It's a reg 7870, not an XT.

Opps... Hmmm... Balla what is your score at the same settings as OP?

 

[futurefields]

Lol i overclocked my card to 1100/1500 and the benchmark is running still but it looks like the results are gonna be even worse than stock.

 

[futurefields]

OC'ing to 1100/1500 only nets me +1.3 FPS.

 

[futurefields]

And it was hitching more during the benchmark. It almost seems like my card isnt getting enough power, but I have it hooked up to 2x pci-e connectors from a Rosewill Capstone 650 watt 80+ gold psu.
