So i just built my new PC a few weeks ago with the following components:
Antec 750w Power Supply
AMD 8350 with Hyper 212 Aftermarket Cooler
24GB DDR3 1600 G Skill Ripjaws 9-9-9-24
Radeon R290 4gb 512-bit Vid Card
All in all ive noticed that most games i cannot go in and turn everything to max which i thought i should be able to. So i decided to do some benchmarking.
Without Overclocking i ran the Valley Benchmark and got the following score:
FPS:
54.9
Score:
2298
Min FPS:
23.4
Max FPS:
99.1
After some super light overclocking through the AMD Catalyst 4% GPU clock 2% power limit i got the score:
FPS:
55.6
Score:
2327
Min FPS:
22.7
Max FPS: [/b]
107.1
Ive double checked that the RAM timings are being properly read and everthing seems perfect as far as reporting, Card never sees over 89C, CPU never goes above 47C after 1 hour of gaming and Prime95. Ive tried the latest stable drivers, and the latest Beta drivers.
What is going on here? Dont these benchmarks seem really low?
