HWBot chitchat: OCTB to the TOP - Page 240

After talking to Gamer last night, I now know this is not common knowledge. So, here's the post.

For DX11 benchmarks (3DMark11 and Heaven), you can reduce the tesselation level in the driver and get a major boost in performance. Just move the slider to the most left position to completely disable tesselation.

does this disable the feature ?

geoffrey · 10th July 2011, 10:29

probable overrides the game settings, is there a workaround for NV? Regtweak?

jmke · 10th July 2011, 17:46

heaven and 3D11 are not games; if there's a tessellation test and you disable it through the driver, that's the same as disabling 3D rendering for the 3D tests

Massman · 10th July 2011, 18:28

Yes, tesselation is disabled.

So, how did we get to top-10?

I can only see Leeghoofd's Q6600 entries. Nice work!

HWBot algorythm miscalculation

Thanks Luc for the board, she behaved quite well, sadly only 400 strap.

Though CPU has got more in it, went only -80°C max to save LN2... Think 4.75ish and maybe more on the P45 UD3P is possible for better pi and CPU-Z...

PCmark05 can be better too, but had not much time to try all the diff settings, only one run there...
