It's always ExtremeHD, no point comparing results if we don't all use the same preset.

This is the best I've gotten to date, a pretty bad score for some reason. Have since overclocked the cards a little more and ran the benchmark just now but got a lower score, can't be arsed to close everything else that's running.

Does anyone else get really bad drops during the scene transitions? That seems to be what's killing my score, it drops below 30fps almost every time.

A perfect example of my unusually low score, your single 390 scores the same as my two 290s. I see you also get the low frame rates, however your max is a shit ton higher than mine.

What overclock are you running? Mine are at 1070/1300 so only modest, could probably go a fair bit higher.

What are the temperatures like on your 390? For core and VRM's, also voltages?

Mines at 1100/1500. Should be 1525 for memory but I didn't see any performance increase in any games with memory overclocked and when it was overclocked it forces a constant 1.258v VDDC whereas with 1500 it sits at 1.188v VDDDC which gives significantly lower temperatures like 5c at least.

Now that summers here it might be time for some fresh paste. Don't have any benchmarks on my phone, think they scored around 2900 or so, similar to a 980/Ti.
>>
>>51416353
That variation is tiny, my score's far lower than I'd expect from that. My single threaded performance is close to that of an 8320, but multi threaded is better than an 8350 and more like a 4790k at stock. >>51415080 for example beats my score with a single 290/X and an 8350.

>>51416963
Yeah it's enabled and I see activity on both cards, although it's not high with the loading jumping backwards and forwards between each card. I've seen similar issues running Firestrike and I also get a silly low score in that because of it.
>>
>>51418965
As a comparison I just ran a bench with Crossfire disabled and got 2300. Still lower than I would've expected but still not a huge difference from going from two cards to one. Also throughout the bench with one card it was pinned at 100% load.

I've had people say this many times before but I really don't think it's the issue. Core load on the first CPU was about 50-60%, like 20% on the second. If there's a bottleneck I'd expect much higher load on a single CPU, or single core if the application didn't handle multithreading well. Considering my single threaded performance is similar to an 8320 I'd expect performance similar to that at the least, yet there's a guy beating my score with an 8350 and a single 290/X.

I'm fairly certain it's Crossfire causing the issue, I just have no idea what's causing that to play up. It's not a power issue, it doesn't seem to be a setting issue (Crossfire is enabled and forced and partially working, and in some applications I get the performance I'd expect), and both cards are running at PCIE 2.0 8x which shouldn't be an issue. Drivers are up to date too and I've actually seen performance increases when installing newer drivers.

That doesn't really help when I have Crossfire issues in some benches.

My Firestrike score is similar to an 8350 and Crossfire 290/X, a little lower on the graphics score but much higher on the physics, but I'm not certain on which aspect mostly affects those different tests. For example my better multithreaded performance could be raising the physics score, my lower graphics score could be due to a lower overclock, or the fact that some of the separate tests within Firestrike don't utilise Crossfire as much.

I've seen absolutely nothing that would hint at the CPUs being a bottleneck, which is usually the CPU usage being really high. I have however seen signs that Crossfire isn't working properly, so the logical assumption that it is the issue and not the CPUs.

Right. I'm running two x5650 CPUs. Unigine valley hardly even used the 2nd CPU, and only used 2-3 cores at a time on the 1st.

In games with better support for many cores I get good performance. For example, I can play Crysis 3 with the Ultra preset at 45-60 FPS average (with occasional dips to 30 fps). (At 1600x1200, which is admittedly about 8% less pixels than 1080p).

My firestrike extreme score, which I believe uses a little more of the dual CPU setup.

Yes, I've ran the bench with it disabled and get a lower score and the second card shows no activity. With it enabled the load jumps between the two cards with only brief moments when both are under high load (which could just be down to the delay from GPU-Z).

Now this is the sort of score I'd expect, same cards and similar CPU performance (mine's a little lower on the single threaded, little higher on the multithreaded) minus a couple hundred as you're probably higher overclocked than me. >>51411629

I've since managed to get mine from 2734 to 2822 by disabling ULPS (got both cards loaded up fairly evenly with less jumping between them) and turning frame packing off in Catalyst. Frame rate throughout the bench is slightly higher and more consistent with not as many large drops during the transitions. Still some ways to go, max frame rate is nowhere near.

what are your settings/ cards? Honestly even though you have higher IPC it might just be a matter of clock speed on that xeon

I'm at 1070/1300 (stock voltage, power limit all the way to +50%), CPUs at stock of course.

I'm not sure how it works with dual GPU cards but does each core show up separately in GPU-Z? If so, what's the load like when running the benchmark (both at high load or does it jumps back and forth between them)?

Going by your average frame rate I'm guessing you're probably around 100fps on the easier scenes and down closer to 60 on the harder ones, mine's more like 70-80 and 40-50 respectively.

We're getting there, when I first got this card it was actually slower than the 650ti that I replaced and the feature support and game compatibility was terrible. As its gotten updates though its just kept getting faster and faster and now it will run all but the latest OpenGL 4+ games well.

I have high hopes that we'll see Vulkan support bring a good improvement in speed, with projects like Gallium producing a generic Vulkan backend to make supporting OpenGL and projects like Gallium Nine much easier.
>>
>>51428893
I genuinely don't understand why AMD, with its slow release cycle makes proprietary drivers for GNU/Linux.

They're a hassle to install, and you have to make sure it supports your version of X.org due to ABI changes. It's just silly. I want to be able to run any version of X I want, and the driver needs to be rebuilt when the ABI changes, meaning that proprietary driver users will be stuck with outdated software until the next long awaited release.

AMD employees who have commented on the situation have said that at this point Catalyst is only really still around for Workstations and because Mesa doesn't support compute shaders yet. Next April we'll have the new power management code in the kernel, and possibly Mesa will be at OpenGL 4.3 support. At that point Catalyst could very easily be seen as a purely legacy option.

Catalyst (fglrx) supports OpenGL 4.5. Mesa RadeonSI which is what all GCN cards use for OpenGL currently only supports OpenGL 4.1. If you have an application or a game that relies on OpenGL 4.3 features then you still need the proprietary drivers.

>Isn't that what AMDGPU is trying to achieve?
Yes it is, the patches already exist that were mostly developed by developers who were formerly Catalyst-only. You can see their results in benchmarks that have been posted but they came to late to get into Kernel 4.4, so they won't be easily available to end users until 4.5 which with any luck will be the default kernel in the next LTS version of Ubuntu. Then again they managed to get Mesa 11 brought in to 15.10, but botched the OpenGL 4 support so I won't put it past them to fuck it up.

>I don't really understand what AMDGPU is to be honest, is it a replacement for radeon or what?
Yes, its the new kernel driver that is used if you have a GCN 1.2 graphics card like a 285, 380, or Fury. So the up side is that if you have one of those cards you're going to get official open source support from AMD. The downside is we still don't know what the support situation will be for GCN 1.1 cards like the 390 even though that's still one of AMD's current high end cards, and AMD's 'official' support has seen GCN 1.2 cards go without reclocking support for over a year.

I'm in the same boat with a 280. So far things aren't looking too bad for us, Mesa RadeonSI is what all GCN cards will use so if AMD starts contributing more to Mesa we'll still be in good shape.

On the kernel front though Radeon may not be getting much support, and from what AMD's developers have said about Vulkan it may be AMDGPU only. Though an unofficial Vulkan driver for older GCN cards is basically guaranteed to happen, but it may take months after the Vulkan launch to arrive.

A "good" score would be one that allows you to play all modern games on default settings at 1080p with at least 30fps. You don't need a score of 2000 to do that.

I would say over 1000 is "good". Over 2000 is "great". Over 4000 is "a generation ahead".
>>
>>51430900

well, that's just like, our opinions man.

i don't play games on pc just so i can sit back and say 'man, i sure hope i can stay above 30 fps!'.

1080p/60 is my standard. 45 is acceptable. 30 really isn't.
>>
>>51430955
30 fps is the console standard, and the reason for that being it's about as low as you can go without feeling like motion is jerky or stuttery (provided you leave motion blur turned on). Perhaps 24 fps could be done on a monitor with *sync, but I've never tried it.

Matching the console performance basically means you aren't missing out on anything the developers intended for you to enjoy. It's the base experience.

And if you really want 60 fps it's as easy as turning a setting or two down one notch if you have a machine somewhere in the 1000-1500 range. AND that's only for a handful of demanding AAA titles. Everything else will be completely maxed out by something like a GTX 960 or R9 280x.
