compared to 313.96

300 lower 3dmark06 22609
25 lower vantage P22367
7 higher 3dmak11 P6178
500 higher ice storm P93758
30 lower cloud gate P16346
same fire strike P3808

 

Damn, lower across the board? Hmm. I like the speed of the 313s but I've been having all kinds of trouble with them, including the drivers crashing randomly. I thought it was just a bad install but a clean one didn't fix it.

 

put it in perspective, those "losses" are below 1% and should thus be considered normal fluctuations. ud get the same running a benchmark three times in a row and comparing the results with identical drivers, config, etc. anything up to 2% is the same score in my eyes

True, I don't know why I didn't consider that. And I'm one of the people who believe that benching is useless at determining how good it is, real-world performance is where it is at.

I'm having an off week here.

 

just didnt have time to run 8 benches in one night otherwise i would have had no time on the forum.
i normally do run 3 at a time to get the average.
as long as C3 gameplay is stable i dont really care.

 

lol, that wasnt meant to be criticism towards u dj i would be waaay too lazy myself to even run any benches whatsoever just for a new driver

ever since I've upgraded to windows 8, these new drivers have been working perfectly for me, I have seen a 5 fps improvement in BF3 vs 310.90

 

It looks like they are gearing a lot of their work towards windows 8. Can't complain, at least they are looking forward, to bad I'm not just yet.

And I agree, thanks for all the posts and updates DJ, your work often goes unnoticed though it should not.

 

your welcome mate. thats what i stick around for.
this great forum has helped me out on a couple of occasions (thanks alienware crap) so im here to help others in any way i can.
