Hey guys first ever post. Havent had a capable rig in a while, and recently upgraded to a EVGA GTX 1070 SC. Heres my full build:
Asus H170-Pro motherboard
Intel I5-6402P (2.8Ghz)
16gb DDR4 Corsair vengeance 2133mhz ram
EVGA GTX 1070 SC GPU
120GB SSD + 1TB HDD
500w PSU
Dell 27in 1440p 144hz 1ms G-sync monitor
So Ive recently purchased an EVGA 1070 SC from best buy and ran a few benchmarks with Unigines Heaven software.
Without any overclocking, the best i could do was 92.7 FPS, 2336 score(Averages around 89 and 2210~ respectively). Ultra settings, Tesselation extreme and AAx8.
With overclocking gpu to about 2189mhz (insanely high if you ask me) the best i could achieve was FPS 97.4, Score 2453
**However this was at 1080p on a 1440p native monitor (dell s2716dg). Not sure if using 1080p on a 1440p-native monitor will have any affect. Its also 27inch if that matters.
Ive been seeing other 1070 cards on Heaven benchmark around 97-99fps stock and up to 105-107 overclocked. And these runs have a lower clock speeds than i had during my benchmarks.
I've tried DDU and reinstalling drivers. Also set up a much more aggressive fan profile, no avail.
Im new to high end graphics and have heard of the silicon lottery. I was under the impression that just applied to a cards capable max stable clock speed. It seems i can get very high clock speeds compared to other 1070 owners but am still not achieving as high of framerates. Did i just get a crappy card? Or is there a bottleneck somewhere? i can still swap it for another EVGA 1070 SC at best buy, im within the 15 day window. Sorry, im new so if i forgot to add anything let me know!
also want to mention multiple runs at 2100~mhz overclocked resulted in 90-94fps, showing no improvement and sometimes decrease over stock clock.
