Speedway Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 And reviews show sli 460 crap on 580s and 5970s too.. Yet they don't even come close here in the duels.. What's that say??? Haahahah my CPU doesn't oc anymore as well but post ur scores so we can see what urs can do with a better cpu Maybe I spoke too soon! Pushing the 5970 for Forum Wars, the fan went out, or actually is going to go out. It has an unbelievably loud high pitched noise coming from such a small fan I had to throw the GTX 460's back in and see what they were feeling like I guess some good R&R goes a long way for the 460's Uploaded with ImageShack.us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Capitan Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Got ya beat just slightly, though I'm sure if you overclocked your voltage, you'd probably get in the 1GHz Core Clock speeds. Hint hint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedway Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Capi, so far, I can beat my HD 5970 in both Heaven and 3DMark Vantage, getting close on 3DMark11! So now I'm trying to figure out how you were beaten so badly by Nyt's 5970! I see originally you had 29fps in Heaven, how has you score changed so much? Was something set wrong in the 1st duel ever?

El_Capitan Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Yeah, I'm thinking so... I think I wasn't running in SLI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedway Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Almost looks like it would have to be something drastic like SLI not working for a difference like that! Because so far the Heaven scores posted by the 5970's and 580's are getting crushed by the 460 SLI setup all at about half the price Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedway Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Woo maybe it was a good thing your 5970 gave out?? Man, you might be right! I just broke 32K on Vantage, couldn't do that with the 5970 (31700). I probably need to make sure that I can use the 460's in the Forum Wars! I didn't even cherry pick the 2 460's in my setup out of the 4 I own either! When I 1st got them, they were all individually tested and labeled. The labels had fallen off, so I just grabbed the 1st 2 saw. If I find the 2 that overclocked the best, pair them together, I will see even higher scores! That is unless the random 2 I grabbed are the 2 gems Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedway Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 Updated my Furmark score: Nyt Ryda 4272 points (HD 5970) El_Capitan 6328 points (2 GTX 460 1GB's) Its looking like the writing on the wall is quite obvious....Capi learned how to use SLI I posted a Heaven SS of over 55fps, which then filled him with determination Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyt Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 I suppose the 1ghz oc on the 460's make up the difference and surpasses the 5970 even when oc'ed . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
