Just installed the above GPU and I was wondering if others have had similar scores. I did not overclock the card, just out of the box:

CPU Intel 3770K
GPU EVGA GTX 970 FTW

1080P at Ultra setting
Avge Frame 107.2
Score 4485
Min frame 39.8
Max Frame 201.2

1440 P at Ultra setting
Avge frame 74.5
Score 3117
Min Frame 35
Max Frame 139.3
