GTX 970 Benchmark
#1
Greetings everyone.

Long time lurker and just built my own rig with the new NVidia cards.

I went with two GTX 970's as they are readily available, in my budget, power efficient, and easily found in reference design.

I haven't seen any benchmarks around for these cards, so here is mine.

I feel it is rather impressive for NVidia hardware and furthers a lot of the claims that these new cards are pretty sweet.

Setup is Ubuntu 14.04x64 and I'm using the official NVidia 343.22 drivers and cudaHashcat-1.31.

xorg.conf includes:
Code:
Section "Device"
    Option       "Coolbits" "12"
    Option       "RegistryDwords" "PerfLevelSrc=0x2222"
    Option       "Interactive" "False"
EndSection

At the moment I am very mildly overclocking with (note: cannot run as root):
Code:
nvidia-settings -a [gpu:0]/GPUPowerMizerMode=1
nvidia-settings -a [gpu:1]/GPUPowerMizerMode=1
nvidia-settings -a [gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1
nvidia-settings -a [gpu:1]/GPUFanControlState=1
nvidia-settings -a [fan:0]/GPUCurrentFanSpeed=85
nvidia-settings -a [fan:1]/GPUCurrentFanSpeed=85
nvidia-settings -a [gpu:0]/GPUGraphicsClockOffset[3]=150
nvidia-settings -a [gpu:1]/GPUGraphicsClockOffset[3]=150

I found that a higher clock offset and/or any transfer rate offset increase resulted in cuStreamSynchronize() 700 and/or 702 errors. Something I am still trying to wrangle in.
