So i just bought a galaxy gtx 580 accelero to replace my gtx560ti looking for more performance without sli. it was cheaper for me to do that because i would not have to upgrade memory and motherboard and power supply. But i installed the card and ran the same benchmarks and there doesn't seem to be any improvements sometimes worsw. furmark im averaging 72 fps where my gtx560 got 75. is that normal? in starcraft 2 im only seeing 45-55 fps. overclocking the card im getting worse performance.
650 score on stock
645 overclocked to 920 core and 2400 memory. but it ran stable no artifacts or lock ups
the gpu runs cool at 51c max load so i dont think its throttling.
any advice? did i waste money on the gtx 580 and should have just spent 650 on sli the gtx560ti?
my specs are
biostar ta790gxe
amd phenom 2 x4 970 oc to 3.8
kingston hyper x 1066
corsair cx600 600watt
