well i know someone who has a similar setup (different mobo mainly) and gets similar results in benchmarks in fact i beat him in some.Drivers can make a lot of difference, i just use standard mobo drivers and Gainwards graphics drivers, just check regularly for updates. i cant be bothered overclocking as it runs cames like HL2, Far Cry etc no problem over 100 fps, Doom3 when i had it i had to run it at 1580x1200 res and 16xAA before the framerate dropped aquamark3 68683 3DMark 2005 5304 3DMark 2003 13185 3DMark 2001se 25228 3DMark 2000 25771
If you have cool and quiet on on your cpu then I would turn it off, completely kills your performance and would account for the lower-than-it-should-be score
Actually cool and quiet doesn't kill your performance, it provides the CPU power that is needed for the applications your running in real-time.
well with cool and quiet on i only scored around 45000 in aquamark3,it seemed to lock the multiplier at 6x so i was effectively running a 1.2ghz fx 55, still ran games ok tho but that maybe more due to the graphics card. cant remember any of the 3dmark scores were
Strange, i've personally never had any problems with it - although i do not run it anyway as my pc is quiet and cool at full load. But then the only time i've ever run it was with the latest version applied.
oh my god, is 12,000 a good score for a radeon 9600, thats when i fully overclock it, is there anyway to increase that score. also what scores would i be likely to get with a 6600gt card and a x800pro card? frog, what did you get a score or 38,977 with, what card?
Ooh, ooh! 3DMark2001 bragging rights thread! wonder what the 2 7800GTXs will score with a DFI, thats bound to slaughter 3DMark '01
Ooh, ooh! 3DMark2001 bragging rights thread! watch a warning pop up, be like [hardware_too_powerful_for_app]
Ooh, ooh! 3DMark2001 bragging rights thread! Haha, that's great! A single card can get 41646 in 3Dmark01, so two would be fairly close to the 100k mark.
Ooh, ooh! 3DMark2001 bragging rights thread! no, it will be so powerfull that 3dmark 2001 wont be able to handle it and a windows error will come up, failed the inizialize graphics card, becouse its too power full for the app, then, windows will detect that 3d mark now is damaged due to overload or somthing
Ooh, ooh! 3DMark2001 bragging rights thread! [3Dmark_d_blocked_by_Nvidia] you kind of have to be american or know alot to get this haha
