    Just for graphics, Ungine Heaven is good. For both I like Firestrike and Superposition and there is always Time Spy.
    Be sure and watch your temps closely!
    Ok, ran benchmark with Ungine Heaven @ Extreme. temp 75-80. Cooled back down to ~35 in 1 minute. Now I have this nice HTML, what do I do with it? :) Be nice! My first time!!!!

    I’ve been waiting for a new version of the vaunted Microsoft Surface Book Pro
    You are just talking about the Microsoft Surface Book, right? The hybrid with the latch where you could detach the screen and it didn't fold down flat? There isn't a "Pro" model of that, right? It's just the Surface book?

    Please tell me Microsoft has more in mind than this as a replacement for the Surface Book Pro Sorry but on surface (no pun intended) this looks like a flop to me considering what the Surface Book Pro is/was. Hopefully the true replacement for the Surface Book Pro 2 is still to come.
    I don't think this was meant to be the replacement for the Surface Book. I think MS needed to get out a standard laptop, and wanted to compete better in the Chromebook space. I think this is intended to fit that middle gap. Personally, I don't like using a standard Microsoft Surface Pro as a laptop because it doesn't sit well on your lap. And the Surface Book was simply too big and bulky with that odd hinge. And I don't have any need to separate my keyboard from my tablet. So, I think the Surface Laptop would be geared towards somebody like me.

    I prefer the laptop form factor, over a tablet. I want battery life, I want it as small as possible and I want great battery life. The cost of the Surface puts it up their in MacBook territory, but like the MacBook, it is pretty premium hardware.

    I think you can rest easy knowing a new Surface Book will likely be on it's way.

    Moving away from GPU's for a moment...

    I’ve been waiting for a new version of the vaunted Microsoft Surface Book Pro (Surface Book Pro 2) and instead I see MS is instead releasing a standard notebook called the "Surface Laptop" with Windows 10S (a Windows App store only OS).

    WHAT!!!

    Geesh, I see if it isn't "GPU" talk things get ignored. Perhaps we should rename this the GPU thread.

    He seems to have lost interest in running more benchmarks. I guess it's that way when you have a lazy version of a 1070 and you know your next best score will likely move from 7001 to 7001 point five.

    Worf will be so far up on him in the leader board that he will have to shout so dude can hear him.

    I'm guessing our dude is being cool, quiet and taking his time. Pondering his options and waiting for more data.

    Yep, that will really help you beat Worf in Time Spy.

    Did you see this, essenbe? Seems the 117% power target Bjorn3d showed in the review is indeed the max power on the primary bios for the FTW 3. How weird is that?

    For those interested, Precision XOC 6.1.6 is out (guess they skipped 6.1.5) which has optimizations for FTW 3 cards and likely addresses none of my issues.
