3dmark06

hmm... That would be nice :D , are you sure about 14 000 though? sounds a bit high for a 8800gts?
 
I think I saw a youtube vid from the coolit systems guys where they got 17k with 3dmark. not sure about the version. might be 05 or 06. the coolit eleminator rawks. (TEC)
 
You must have overclcoked that cpu or gpu quite a bit to get to 14000. I get about 8600 when I overclock my cpu to 2.8 and just over 10 k when I overclock the cpu to 3ghz and gpu to 625/1000.
 
No im serious i got 14k, it as on mark05 cause every recommended it, may it will drop quite a lot when i use o6 instead.

And no dont over clock i never have dont know how either lol.Looking at your specs im wondering now again, could it be a fault of some kind?

Maybe i should download 06 and check with that.
 
3dmark 06 is very different to 3dmark 05 in performance ;)....wait till you get to that cpu test :D and 14k on 05 makes sense
 
Man im not gonna download 06 its 600 meg double the size of 05 damn thats nasty. But im telling you i did clear 14k on 05. Matbe 06 will chop it in half?
 
I hit 13/14k easy in 05, it was 06 that killed me...

Ok I installed the drivers that came with my 8800gts and suddenly I get around 4600 3dmarks06. Thats a drop of just under 3000!!!!! :mad: wth!!

Anyway I read a thread where even a 4800+ x2 amd can "bottleneck" an 8800gts and as a result the guys overclock their cpu's and achieve much higher gfx results.

As my CPU temp is around 50' degrees overclocking is not an option right now but I am busy downloading other drivers to see.
 
11300 for 3DM06 last time I ran it.

E6400 @ 3.2Ghz
2Gigs kinston HyperX @ 4-4-4-12 and 800Mhz
8800GTX @ 630Mhz(Core) and 2000Mhz(Mem)
Asus Striker Extreme
CPU running on Swiftech water cooling
 
C2D E6600 @ stock
2x 1GB Transcend DDR2 800mhz
XFX GF8800GTX @ stock

3dmark06 default settings about ~11,000

Apparently there's a new build of 3DMark, I'll have to get that and re-run sometime.
 
Competition? I'm entering too 13.8K 3DM06
rig in sig
Only difference is gfx is 8800Ulltra
 
My score in 06 is 7986

That was with cpu at stock(2.13ghz) and gpu at stock.

Also running vista.

My new score: 10221. cpu at 3ghz and gpu at 625/1000.

With 2900XT It's 11.4K I think can't be sure but will confirm later on...
 
Hehe, I could not care less about Benchmark programs. As long as it can run my games decently with enough eye-candy, I'm a happy man :D
 
Are you all sure you are using default settings :p lol

I mean I could probably get 13k if I bring settings down to performance etc... and with a few tweaks you neva know.

I had to format my PC as it was crashing for some unknown reason.

Anyhow I loaded my original BIOS, got hold of forceware 165.01 for xp32bit and installed 3dmark06 straight after windows install and everything. Got around 6800marks. It's weird how my results keep jumping :/
 
benchmarks show how your rig will scale according to next gen content etc...
you don't have to care nobody is asking you to...
Its safe to assume Futuremark is not targeting you for their benchmarks so don't worry too much about our scores,. You can stick to the games exclusively :)
