Post Scores.....

[the_dope_chaud]

Hello everyone, I am new to bench marking and the score process.I built this heap about 3 years a go and just ran 3DMARK06 on it,with a score of 541.That seems pretty crappy to me looking at the other scores. My system consists of
M/B ASUS K8VSE DELUXE
2- GIG RAM 3200
2OO GIG Ide hd
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128 agp
600 watt p/s
Is that score about all I can expect out of this heap,Is there some stuff i can try to improve my score? Or is it time to start thinking of a rebuilding to the new X2 stuff? That would mean new mb,ram,and video. I would really like to avoid that for now.
Thanks
Dan

your video card is killing your score, but if you dont play games or feel the need to upgrade, why do it?

but if you shop smart, you can have a real cheap upgrade....feel free to ask for help

PS I'm sure you have a processor somewhere in there also...

Don't u submit your scores to Future Mark PP ? I think, all of our 3D Mark scores should contain a FM compare link (with screenshot) to be able to understand what were the system configurations involved & which driver did u use ?

And can we start a Bjorn3D team registered in HwBot.org so that we can accumulate points for our team ? Many forums are doing this already.I know Bjorn3D isn't a Overclocking or modding community but that will be fun to compete with other teams.

Lol nope. I have my network connectiosn turned off when i bench. And i dont have an account with them anyways and im to lazy to make one. And system specs are what are in sig except i used a 3000+ at 2.6ghz and 93.71 drivers with my video card OCed to 685/1.54.

Your score is making me feel bad for my machine.My Pentium D & 1GB value ram sucks.I think,it's the 3GB ram which is giving you such high scores.Have you ever benched with only 1 or 2Gb of it to see the diff ?

[PP Mguire]

The extra gig only made me jump up from 5994 to 6025. if you look, on my last post with the on that was SO close it was 2gig. I had the other gig in my server.

Nice score darkorb, I bet you could get your cpu higher with loosening up some timings, or if you have another divider to go

I don't even mind that my computer won't touch some of your guy's scroes. I'm perfectly happy knowing that it outruns any computer in it's class and that it's a 754 where the HT outruns the 939's.

[darkorb]

here it is at 2.7

[PP Mguire]

I cant beliee your dual core and 8800 is only getting about 2500 more than me. Something has to be wrong.

[Dragon]

in this game a couple of hundred is a boat load .. especially when you allready taxing out a system ... so a 7950 getting 6k vs a 8800 getting 8800 is a signifigant gain .. what could be wrong ? sounds bout right for his system , He will be hard to break 10k mainly because the cpu is bottlenecking but its possible . looking real good dark keep it cranking .. are you overclocking the vid yet ?

[Xero (1)ne]

PPM, if you had 2 7950's you could most definately beat his @$$

[westy87]

mmm imagine 2 7950gx2's

Latest score 5543 at 3.20ghz and card at 549core and 808(1616)

I'm gonna run one after I've defragged and closed as many processes as I can
