In this article put the new EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC (SuperClocked) Gaming to the test. It is locked and loaded with with 8GB GDDR5 graphics memory. Now we all like the reference founders edition cards, but let's face it, aren't the proper board partner cards something we are all after?

Why does this perform lower than the msi gaming 1070?

Even when you overclocked the EVGA higher than the MSI it performed worse than the MSI?

Hi Hilbert,

On the page with Grand Theft Auto V, the 1920x1080 benchmark is duplicated and no 2560x1440 results are shown.

Likely because the average boost on the MSI is a bit better. I too get ~18600 Graphics Score on mine when at stock clocks. And then ~20600 when OCed when the boost ranges from 2025 to 2063MHz and 9410MHz on memory. Also, iirc Hilbert put a +700 on memory for the MSI, whereas only +600 on this one.

Why is RX 480 missing from the charts?

Still investigating. Ran the OC many times yet it seems to be stuck. I think it is stuck on a lower boost mode e.g. the power limiter kicks in due to the tweak being maybe a notch too high. This afternoon I'll re-do the overclocked bench on a fresh system to see if that made a chance. Also could be the new FM update from a couple of days ago. But I am checking it.

Updated: second run/check worked well. Firestrike OC results have been updated accordingly.

For the other question. RX 480 still need to be added to this data-set.
