Like title says, any low iso comparisons? Like side by side same image with both cameras? I've seen some comparisons in videos, but its hard to really appreciate quality in a youtube vid. I'm trying to decide if I should start lusting after the 1dx, or just be happy with my 5d3. I've always liked the idea of the 1d body style and durability, but i need some more info. Does the 1dx have more DR at iso 100? Is the banding any better?
Any 5d vs 1dx low iso comparisons?

I'm trying to create an opportunity to do so. I'm trying to find a bright situation with ISO 100, but with a shadow in the background or off to my side. Sounds fairly easy to do I suppose.

That would be great. I do want to see shadow noise and all that good stuff, but honestly, im more concerned with the overall image. Does a photo from the 1dx under perfect conditions look better than a photo from a 5d3?

no i haven't, although i did look at black frames a bit to measure read noise and to look at the banding patterns
the 1DX has a little bit less read noise, bit not a big deal less than the 5D3
it has a fair amount less banding, but still a bit more than the 40D or 1Ds3 (it has a bit more horizontal than the 5D3 which has none of that, but definitely less vertical which the 5D3 has quite a lot of, although the 1DX still has some; 1Ds3 has a little bit of horizontal but basically no vertical, now if they could only combine the 5D3 and 1Ds3 they'd be set for banding ;D although the read noise would still be way higher than exmor sensors or even the best non-exmor sensor in that regard, the one in the D4)
I'd say it has somewhat more usable low ISO DR but it's not a huge amount more like say a D4 or D800 or the like would offer, so yeah it would handle pushing around somewhat better than a 5D3 most likely, but not OMG! so by any means I wouldn't think, better in a noticeable but modest sense most likely.
Some of the Nikon are like 2-3.5 stops better than the 5D3, the 1DX is probably, at best, 1 stop better usable and perhaps only 1/2 stop so (ignoring banding, it is definitely not more than 1/2 stop better).
1Ds3 still probably has the best ISO100 by a smidge over the 1DX when it comes to Canon DSLR is my best guess

It's not only about noise and banding. It is also the color / clarity of the RAW and the ability to push those to the edge:

That looks great. If only my wife wouldn't disown me for spending that kind of money... again.

North central Ohio. It doesn't rain that much here. In fact, it hasn't rained all summer. Until Monday and Tuesday.
