Just got my gigabyte gtx 760 windforce.

Ran at default 1085 : 1150 MHz boost the physx burn in text at 1080p.

Saw some artifacts (lines down screen about halfway through only on the part where the test shows the cube field, tessellated sphere, cloth physx simulation and particle simulation. It still passed the test though.

in this ppicture it showed lines running vertically down the screen, obviously not supposed to happen

Is this general test just hard on the system ? I wanna push it farther, just curious what to do with the kombustor stability test in kombustor or if I should use a diff test alongside uningine valley very high. which passes fine overclocked as high as 1150 base / 6628 mem fps 40.7 and temp 75

I ran crysis 3 maxed out very high 1080p which ran great! so much better than stock's

Seems stable cuz it's not a very big overclock. I was following hardocp's tutorial on gigabyte windforce overclock guide.


Temps don't exceed 75

So let me get this straight. Your default clocked GTX 760 has artifacts when running kombustor? 1150 boost is the normal boost clock speed for that card.

If you're seeing lines and what not at stock clocks in kombustor but nowhere else, it could be another problem, like the drivers.. I'm on a work computer but I can't see any lines on that picture. When I go home I'll look at it again.

It's been a long time since I've benchmarked kombustor, but I don't recall it being that GPU intensive..
