PPL - Performance Per Liter, Round 2!

Case is a Lian Li A51 with a volume of 44 litres
i7 8086
RTX 2080ti FTW3

Calculation ((1283 * 14537)/(44.2^1.5))/100 = 635

Now my case size is really killing me, but I am about to put it into my self designed 11.4 litre case .. .. but not just yet

You are right @ZMan size does matter. Wish I had done these tests again when I had my 2070 in my MI-6, at 6.7l it is much more compact than my Ghost + Top hat at 11l.







Time Spy result link.

((1603*9707)/(11^1.5))/100= 4265.

If I had the same scores in my MI-6 my score would have been 8972, oh well.

I don't really wanna let this thread die out, 'cause I am really interested in this topic, so I guess it's time for another "Oh that guy posted again":

I sat through all posts and updated the leaderboard. You can see the new one down below.
(neygurt's score and AURMEND's updated score are in brackets as there is no evidence for these scores (screenshots etc.))

Ooops, long overdue but here's a screenshot of the cinebench run and build:

Ok new computer, new test.

Nouvolo Steck
Ryzen 5 3600x
MSI B450i Gaming Plus AC
EVGA GTX 1080 SC
2 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance 3000 MHz
Corsair SF450 Gold
Scythe Big Shuriken 3
128GB XPG SX8000 M.2
960GB Crucial M500 SSD









((1660*7759)/(8.7^1.5))/100 = 5019.21

I was still surprised when my bone stock 3600x beat my 5.0 GHz 8700k, but seeing how well Ryzen performs in this test I shouldn't be. My 2070 did destroy my 1080, 1080 isn't a great over clocker unfortunately.

Holy hell! How do you keep the 2700 cool in this little beast? At 37 mmm cooler clearance, I'm assuming you are using a L9a or something similar? How is the long-time performance?
Sorry for bombarding you with questions. Very well-deserved first place!

Nice seeing 3rd gen Ryzen for the first time here. Can't wait for the release of the 3950x. Cooling will be an adventure, though.

Yep L9a. You got it right.
And the CPU is slightly overclocked.

The L9a is not sufficient to keep it cool 24/7 at 100% load. On the other hand I use that PC only for gaming. Mostly. And occasional 3D design of a new PC case :). So the CPU load rarely goes above 50% for more than a couple of minutes. L9a is good enough for that.

Its all about correct balance between purpose, noise, weight and volume.

GPU is Gigabyte GTX 1080 itx. Small radiator, single fan. Should be noisy, right? But... My monitor is 1080@60. So the GTX 1080 is more than enough for it. It rarely goes above 80% load, no mater how bad the game optimization is. Its fan never goes above 60%. In idle the fan turns off.
CPU in game never goes above 30%. And the Noctua is good enough to cool that without the fan being noisy. 'Cos Noctua fan, you know...
PSU is FlexATX. The 40mm fan on it is temperature dependent. Its a 500W PSU and the whole system eats 350W tops on synthetics. Under normal load (gaming) it rarely goes above 230W. PSU does not heats up. Hence the fan is barely audible.

With the introduction of Ryzen 3000 and waiting for roughly around a month, my new CPU arrived which I already built into my machine, along with a new motherboard. The case is still the same, if anyone needs some photos for confirmation I can take new ones, otherwise see my post #11

I reran all tests and have an updated score:





timespy-link: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/42636999?

Sadly, my scores in Timespy are really buggy and it kinda depends on luck how high my graphics score is.
Either way, my new PPL score is:

(3776*7505)/(6,7^1,5) ~ 16341

my 3950x arrives tomorrow - will still need some time to figure out cooling though... I guess we'll see a whole bunch of new attempts at #1! What memory do you use?

Are you going to put your 3950x into your 5 litre case? Holy smokes. Cooling is going to be an adventure. Although it would be nice to see how far it can be pushed under extreme circumstances, since the official statement is that a 280mm radiator is recommended for cooling.

I use two 16GB G.Skill RipJaws V Sticks, each at 3200 MHz, CL 16-18-18-38. I also can finally use these settings, my old Biostar Mainboard wouldn't post with anything higher than 2933 MHz

Yeah - that's the ambition at least ;) outcome uncertain...

What 2080ti fits into a 4.9lt case? or what 4.9lt case does fit a 2080ti?

This one :)
