even lowest end gpu with 80%+ ASIC. that is where NVIDIA shines.

Sapphire HD 7870



this is good Quality for AMD, considering most of AMD's are around under 70%

The ASIC quality is based on the default voltage fused into the chip after testing at the factory.


Higher voltage = more leakage = high temps = low OC = poor/low quality ASIC

@sunnykhan

higher ASIC is better. and in my case, sapphire 7950 has 53% ASIC with performed not optimal to MSI 7950 60% ASIC. GPU with better ASIC performs better stock to stock.

i don't know whats the reason for my gpu low ASIC
but all of them r performing well enough in every bench
i'll try to post some other benches as soon as i get my new board

any ways thank u @nafu for ur guidance

try comparing your tri sli 780 clock to clock performance. it is not definite that ASIC directly/straightly effect on major performance. But it is just one of the indicator of Chip's overall performance. from voltage to overclock. kepler series mostly achieved 75%+ where i have seen globally.

compare in valley benchmark and firestrike

I'm not sure about what exactly ASIC is but I see I'm pretty getting low percentage value as compared to others. I need a brief description of this term in a more digestible way.

bro ASIC is basically tells about the Chip's or silicon's overall performance regarding HEating and speed comparing to same model. like we can compare 280x vs other 280x on the basis of ASIC quality. Every cards performance varies to each other. in the same Model some card perform good some below optimal.

Your GPUs ASIC Quality Suggest:

LOW Voltage leakage: so you will need More Voltages for overclocking
More Power Consumption: high voltages will increases the power consumption
More HEat Generation: high voltage generate more HEAt
High Temperatures: More HEat raises the temperatures

But you cannot say it is Perfect Link that reflect you chip,. because sometimes GPU perform way better or different from mentioned characteristics. but it is true on most of the cases. atleast i experienced similar. you ASIC Quality definitely lower, but its a luck of a draw. difference would be max 2-5 fps. not more than that. sometimes it wont be any.

For example: My Sapphire 7950 at 54% was scoring lower to MSI 7950 @60% clock to clock (same clocks and settings). this is what i experienced.

NVIDIA GPUs are mostly above 70% due to efficient built. but AMD usually 50-65% which suggest high power draw but great for overclocking.

Even Though I Have High Asic Quality The GPU Still Doesn't Overclocks Well! :(


Practically it is not certain it Overclocks high with High ASIC. I think This ASIC Result more reflects the overall performance of Any GPU, like heating, voltages, temp etc. Its Say Lower ASIC =High Voltages & Heating = Lower Overclocking. but i am experienced AMD GPU 7950, with 53% ASIC and overclocked at 1250/1700mhz from 950/1250mhz. So can get idea of certainty.

High ASIC definitely worth as translates low Heating and temp. obviously NVIDIA is specialized in it. thats why NVIDIA gpus are better in power consumption and temp and So the High ASIC.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!
