3DMark 06 Scores

[darkorb]

it was a while ago so i may be 100% wrong

i hope no one here is scoring 3000 points. hehe! i dont how any of you guys say dont base it on this becuase of that. its moronic. if my computer scores higher it performs better. benchmarks are nothing more then baselines, 3dmark being a very widely accepted one. what 3d mark should be doing is setting a baseline based on todays games. I.E. seperate the scores into there individual catagory and have a base. this many points in this catagory is essentially acceptable for these games.

Though 3D Mark06 is really accepted but as,i said, it can't be a measurement to judge a graphics card coz 3D Mark doesn't tests the cards in a real word way & a Synthetic measurement isn't a proper way to test cards.And to me,it's a starange thing that you get same scores in single card & SLI.

6k for me now with a single card and 3000+ OCed. SLI is so over rated.

my 3500+, 2gb ram, 6800gt scored 2400 or somtin?

for a 6800gt that sounds bout right on the money .. .... we not here to bash others people scores but to help and see what others are getting ... so please be nice ...

[PP Mguire]

For a 6800GT and an Axp it sounds right, but i still got higher. THats why i said what i said.

My brother got ~200pts on his machine and it plays all of his games and ran Vista absolutely fine

1.1Ghz athlon XP
512Mb 400Mhz DDR
MSI KT4-AV
80Gb IDE Maxtor hard drive
GeForce 6200 128Mb (don't remember the clocks off the top of my head)

200.
Well like some said as long as he can play games and enjoy his computer everything is fine.
3dmark is only a benchmark.

[PP Mguire]

Well then again his PC cuts the minimum requirements for Vista and most games too. Just not 3dmark 06

he runs games in vista? i would have to call that B.S. sorry.

I think that was about the score my ATI 9600XT gets in 3dmark06. That happens because the card is only SM2 capable, it does not support Shader Mark 3 or 4 and 3dmark06 uses almost SM3 based tests exclusively. You would need to use 3dmark03 or 05 to test an SM2 card.

My 9600XT will actually run Areo Glass... SOME 6200's do offer a 256bit bus with DX9.0c tech, so it is certainly possible if he has one of the better ones that he can run Areo and modern games... Might make a point that the games will have all their settings toned pretty low though.

[PP Mguire]

All 6 series cards where DX9c and supported SM3.0. So, its VERY possible. Not everybody has 30 million processes taking up 40 million gig of ram on Vista

It's called modded drivers + vLite + hard core tweaking + a little bit of patience + magic dust

Am I the only one who has not had problems in Vista??

[Schwarz]

Where do you get that so called Magic dust... if I would let's say be interested ?

I have vista ultimate on 2.4 celeron d with 512mb ddr 333mhz and a radeon 9250. i can run glass on it. doens't mean its any ****ing good!! my sister plays the sims on it at 800 X 600. still doesn't change the fact that not one of us would enjoy this expierence. if you guys want to try it be my guest. last time i checked oblivion wouldn't even run nicely on that system in XP.
P.S. the only prob i have had with vista is SLI support i have been using it for about 2 years now(beta tester) i loved it before aero was even involved!!! and as soon as they fix SLI or i get a single card solution i will go back to it and not let 200 dollars go to waste in my CD case.
