Really? My 980s get just north of 30,300 on graphics score

Or you talking about total score?

Wow, basically identical to my score with a "gaming" overclock -- two 980s and a 4770K 4.6GHz.



And I think this was my best score of all the runs, with my absolute highest GPU OC that wasn't always gaming stable.



But graphics scores aside, 2 x 980s suck at 4K vs. the single cards now.

A pair of 1080 Tis will be a nice upgrade for me.

Both I guess. My graphics score is over 33000 and the total score is around 21500. Nothing is overclocked. The resolution is 3440 X 1440.

Oh, you gotta run Firestrike at 1080p to compare to the scores above. A pair of 1080s should be getting a graphics score of about 40-50K I think.

Dumb question but does it auto run at that even if I am using a 3440x1440? If not, do I need to change something in the settings?

OK, graphics score 38550 at stock and total score is 23356 at 1080p.

Yeah, unless you deliberately customize settings, the regular firestrike run is 1080p.

I was about to order a 7700K tonight and now wondering if I should wait for Cannonlake....

I just quit my job and have 3 weeks until starting my new job, so this would've been a good time to build.

Still waiting to order new vid cards regardless.

What u think???? Wait for Cannonlake? Doesn't seem like Z370 will add anything I care about.
