Trust me bro, I understand.

I used to run around with turbans in 1.0 on my elf girl 'cause it looked better than any of the hairstyles. I was like a Yda-lite.
Anyway, highlander switch is complete seeing as they didn't add any new hair.

Hmmm, you know what, I might just do that. Thanks.

**Ratatapa** · 2013-08-01 08:01

I will be ok with NDA if I just take pictures still right?

Gained like 3k points with this benchmark.

Also, it's saying my GTX770 has 4 gigs of VRAM, when it really only has 2.

Beside my woes with my SSD, I ran it on my HDD and this is what I got with stock settings. Ill lazy man OC later.

I caved and I'm buying a GTX780 with a 3770K later today. I'm overclocking the fuck out of that 3770K. I'm interested in seeing what scores you get with it OC'd.

Also, what GTX780 did you get? I'm gonna get the EVGA one with the ACX cooler.

Yeah, it seems to be claiming all cards as having 4GB of VRAM. My HD7970 only has 3GB, and my laptop's NVS 4200M only has 512MB, but they both weigh in at 4GB in the benchmark. My laptop scores weren't anything to write home about, so I'm not even going to bother posting them.

**Sodalitas** · 2013-08-01 08:40

I'm running stock i7-4700MQ and GTX 780m on my laptop. It's not correctly reporting my graphics card due to driver issues. It's a really nice jump from Exploration (~6782).

**Adajer** · 2013-08-01 08:42

Lazy man OC's. Changed CPU to 42 multiplier in BIOS and added +115 to 780's core and +485 to the Memory. I have not really attempted to find max stable OC on my CPU or GPU.

@Izzy I have the MSI 780 Gaming Edition. It runs really cool and is inaudible. I didn't realize how loud my older cards were until I switched. I am a fan of MSI cards, they perform well for me. EVGA, pre-ACX cooler, was on my do not recommend list. I think they are pretty good now.

They started promo for Free Splinter Cell Blacklist game the day I bought it. The bundle actually includes Blacklist Digital Deluxe Edition and Splinter Cell Conviction Complete Edition.

The AMD 9000 series is rumored for an October Release. Could be better than the 780, or force competition to lower 780's price (knowing Nvidia, they will still keep the same price regardless). ARR is confirmed to be an AMD gaming Evolved game, so it will run great on Nvidia Hardware. I personally dislike AMD.

I really wish Nvidia would get that Shadoplay stuff functional. I am missing out on a lot of great footage.

Also, the 4770k will run cooler than the 3770k if you want to OC the devil out of it.

Impressive score with the OC on your 780 Adajer. It looks like they have done some serious optimization with this benchmark. My single card score with a 580 was 8582, which I think is up about a thousand+ points than the previous 2.0 benchmark. I am thrilled that SLI is working now though.

**Icarian** · 2013-08-01 09:20

This benchmark is a whole lot better optimized, GPU side at least, it now uses 99% of the GPU

I also noticed that bumping my CPU OC (200-300Mhz) does not increase my score in a noticeable amount while the previous benchmark varied a lot even with just a measly 100Mhz bump/drop

**Jamison** · 2013-08-01 09:21

I'm seeing the same thing as everyone else... got a 2200 jump in the benchmark. Score was 8225 (gtx 760) at 1920x1200 on an old CPU. I can usually squeak about another 200 points or more by shutting down some background stuff, too.

Benchmark is not under NDA ._.;

**Ratatapa** · 2013-08-01 09:38

I know just wanted to be 100% sure

**Ratatapa** · 2013-08-01 09:44

Also i'm sad that the only AF i could try was PLD

**Hellfury** · 2013-08-01 09:53

While I will roll with a male elf as before, as an appreciator of the female elf form I am somewhat concerned with the options presented, though hopefully I will soon be shown dead wrong :/

**Eagleheart** · 2013-08-01 10:02

The world shall be filled with Highland women, and it shall be glorious.

**Gokku** · 2013-08-01 10:04

Does this shit work with crossfire / sli support yet? My scores are off because my cards are only decent when crossfire is working.

**Rocl** · 2013-08-01 10:05

The benchmark software is compatible with SLI for NVIDIA graphics cards. Furthermore, CrossFire for AMD graphics cards will be supported when updated drivers are made available. A separate announcement will be made regarding driver updates.

c'mon

I'd heard the Haswell processors run hotter than the Ivy Bridge processors when OC'd, that's why I went with the 3770K.

Here's my build if you wanna nitpick it before I put in the order in a couple hours.
