NVIDIA GTX 970: ShaggySVK set 4 3DMark records

Surprisingly, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 graphics card has become quite popular in overclocking circles lately. Just the other day, Belgian enthusiast known as CornerJack claimed the top spot in the 3DMark — Time Spy model leaderboard for the card. Today, Slovakian overclocker ShaggySVK has already broken that record with an even more impressive score.

What's more, the Slovakian overclocker scored four records across all the latest 3DMark benchmarks:

The last record is the most interesting, as it was with this one that the Slovakian surpassed the previous Belgian record holder.

CornerJack's result was 5398 points, but ShaggySVK managed to hit 5548, dethroning his peer:

The heart of ShaggySVK's test bench was an Intel Core i9-9980XE processor, overclocked to 4800MHz, and installed on an ASUS ROG Rampage VI Apex motherboard.

As for the graphics card, based on the information from GPU-Z, it's one of the models shown in the screenshot below:

Unfortunately, the exact model couldn't be definitively identified. However, given the diamond-shaped vents on the back panel, it's likely a Palit product, possibly the StormX. Or perhaps one of the models from companies controlled by Palit (like Gainward).
