GTX 780 ti Owners - post your ASIC quality score

[Hauk]

That's good. Doesn't seem to affect things much, the spread is interesting though. RaulF's 80.7 GHz is the highest I've seen. I'll be pushing my classified when I get time, I hope for 1250ish while staying under 1.25v

Lava posted a ref evga vanilla card with 87 basic.

He's got the highest. Probably has Samsung chips too. I have skh.

ya, not sure about my ram. I guess I could look but it's not really worth it to me

Just got my EVGA 780 Ti SC ACX. ASIC = 57.9%. Slightly disappointed, but it means nothing until I see how it OCs. I'll update in a few days, if anyone is interested. Running on PCIe 2.0 for the time being - wouldn't affect ASIC, would it? Does anyone think I'm going to completely saturate PCIe2.0?

2500k@~4.78GHz

I have both of my 780Ti sc acx crds in PCI-e 2.0, 8x/8x and it did not seem to affect the quality score.

My new as of yesterday EVGA 780 Ti SC ACX shows 82.9%.

 

[TreVader]

You're lucky, guy posted his Kingpin Classified at 62 or something godawful like that.


Power delivery features might help but there is no substitute for good binning.

Interesting how SC ACX's have higher ASIC (than Classy/KP) and OC with with stock voltage. Classified/Kingpin lower scores/higher voltage side of things has me at odds. :\

Gigabyte 780 Ti OC: 67.0%

 

[valarmorghulis]

So here's an update on my 57.9% ASIC EVGA SC ACX:

Preliminary OCs are not bad. @ stock voltage I can get +110mhz GPUCore (1116core/1182 boost) stable. I can actually clock higher w/out artifacts in OC Scanner X, but heavily modded Skyrim makes the OC fail.

@+75mV (EVGA Precision v cap) I can get +144mhz core (1150/1216boost) ~stable, with +365mhz memory offset! Actual boost will jump into low 1300s at times. 106% power target/95C temp target.

Mind, these are preliminary OCs... tested for 10-30 min, not hours (Edit: I mean tested 10-30min each time a setting was changed) - But 2-4k res Skyrim + Enb + heavy DDOF + weather & lighting mods, etc... will usually make an OC fail or show artifacts if it's not stable in my experience.

Overall, I'm pleased with the OC results and I think with voltage unlocked I can get over 1200 stable. Doesn't seem like the low ASIC is holding me back much if at all. This OC seems right smack dab in the average from the 6 or so professional reviews I've seen.

And more good news is without touching fan settings the highest temp I've seen is 75C under GPUburn.

Sorry, late to the party. Just got my EVGA reference - 69.9% ASIC
Overclocks to 1240/7600 Crysis 3-stable. That's a +234 offset, although it's hitting the 106% power-limiter the entire time, meaning it drops to ~1220 a lot.

Evga reference vanilla- 87.6
Pny reference vanilla- 65.6

The Evga card runs noticeably cooler but the Pny card can definitely clock higher. I flashed them both to evga sc acx bios and the boost to about 1150-1167 with only fan and power target sliders moved

What do your two reference cards overclock to?

ya, not sure about my ram. I guess I could look but it's not really worth it to me

The new version of GPU-z tells you the VRAM vendor. Mine is Hynix.

There is no proof High ASCI helps anything.

780 Ti Classified here. 61.4%.
Not sure how it clocks yet, just received it yesterday, and school is in the way of playing with it.

 

[Spidre]

EVGA 780ti supercharged reference here. 68% I believe.

My 100% stable overclock is 41mhz above the factory overclock (and I believe it boosts above that). Anything higher then that artifacts, however I did not overvolt at all, and I am using the default bios. I did, however, put the power limit at 106%.

So odd that tehy are almost all very very low. Very $$$ card to get poorly binned chips

Thanks for the link. I have noticed the exact same thing. My Evga reference SC edition kicks the classified in the ass. Paid for more but got less

I know. I've read it. But was getting this one anyways. Mine doesn't clock high at all. Couldn't get the core any higher than stock, and the memory only goes up by +100. Didn't overvolt, just raised the power limit to 106% on AB.
Apparently there's a BIOS update you can get in the EVGA forums that might help.

Might give it a shot when I have some more time.

I would bet that the card you bought second hand in a "sealed" box had been tested.

You still got a good deal, but there's always a reason someone lets something like that go at such a low price.

I would thoroughly stress test it at stock speeds. If it doesn't OC at all, it could be at the edge of stability, and the minute it crashes at stock speeds, it's time to look into RMA'ing it.

I thought so as well, but EVERYTHING was sealed, properly. Had a 670 FTW last year, and it had every unbroken seal and sticker.
Also, it seems like it is a known issue:

This is just one of many threads about this in the EVGA forums. They just don't OC as well for some reason. It seems to be the BIOS. There was a BIOS update that seemed to work for some but not all, issued by EVGA, and the one I linked before is a newer version.
Either way, for what I paid, I really really can't complain.

Absolutely - even at stock speed, you have a ~15% overclock versus reference. That's pretty fantastic.

It's just that if you can't overclock at all without a crash, it could be unstable. I would just leave it as is for a while before tinkering with the BIOS. If it crashes at stock, the BIOS likely won't help.

I tested it with Unigine Heaven for about 45 minutes today, ultra settings in both 1080 and 1440. Worked fine with a stock on the core and +50 on the memory (I believe that's 7050).
I might write EVGA and ask about the BIOS, since it's an official one, make sure it doesn't void the warranty and I might give it a shot.
