GPU-Z's ASIC quality reading

This thread has my interest though. Would be interesting to see if their is any quality difference between AIB's.

Same here. Ive been looking at threads elsewhere about these asic scores and so far there are many more Nvidia cards that are scorable. Only the 7970 from AMD has showed a score so far from what Ive seen. Not sure why.

Maybe some others here who are more knowledgeable in this area can chip in.
 
HIS 7970 - First Card - ASIC 82.9%
HIS 7970 - Second Card - ASIC 71.8%

Serial number wise they are only 2 cards apart. So far it looks like for reference cards at least the value has no correlation to the vendors.

Sapphire 7970: 69.9%

:mad:


Hows your experience with the card so far ? Mine is just 1 point higher than yours and Ive been able to oc at maxed ccc overdrive settings so I think @ 69.9 for a reference card is not bad. Ive seen people get below 50%. Now thats a bit disheartening hehe

Don't work on 6900's.

and on 6950's


Apparently they are still working on older AMD cards...

From TeckpowerUP,

"We've found the ways in which AMD and NVIDIA segregate their freshly-made GPU ASICs based on the electrical leakages the chips produce (to increase yield by allotting them in different SKUs and performance bins), and we've found ways in which ASIC quality can be quantified and displayed. Find this feature in the context menu of GPU-Z. We're working on implementing this feature on older AMD Radeon GPUs. "

Wow 50% ?

This one is a great OCer 1200/1750 with 1.212 volts

very nice thanks. Now I wonder if the quality is averagly higher with the OC models marketed with high OC's.
 
GPU 1 - Inno3D GTX580 - 88.9%
GPU 2 - Gigabyte GTX580 - 104.6%
GPU 3 - Gigabyte GTX580 - 78.3%

The two Gigabyte cards have different colour PCB's, one black, the other blue, one also oc's much more than the other.

Is the one that overclocks more than the other the one with the high ASIC or the low ASIC?
 
I cant remember tbh, and I cant check without pulling all 3 out and oc 1 by 1, perhaps I will when I get time.

edit: From memory 1 Gigabyte card used 1.0v and the other used 1.025v. But I have bios flashed all 3 cards with the same voktage, so I have no way of knowing which was which.. although the Inno3D iirc was 1.025v aswell, so I guess the 104.6% card is the one that used less voltage (1.0v)
