I cant run more than 1/2 of the tests, so I can only post my CPU score - 665

My system is running @ default/safe speeds

Ok, these are my scores @ default speeds with new system:

 

2001 - 26168

2003 - 17617

2005 - 9537

2006 - 4856

 

Id post screenshots, but dont have those apps installed yet. I plan on overclocking once I get everything reinstalled.

 

What is the purpose of running the tests 2 or 3 times? Does it average the scores? I had it run 3x while I took a nap.

I got my new DDR500 Friday and its haulin' ass. Got my cpu oc'ed to 2.2 right now. Going to let it hang out there for about a week then probably kick it up to 2.6, where it pretty much max'ed out at when I was testing the ocing on it before. I'm really waiting to get my water pump back but Danger Den won't even get it till this coming Thursday and I probably won't see a new one till next week.

 

I'm going to run 3dmark again to see what I get, I'm a little curious. B)

Gonna take me a little bit to figure out to OC the CPU on this m/b. It has crazy amount of settings.

Since I upgraded to 6.4, 3dMark06 hangs on the ice station flyby...have to downclock to 674/772 to get past it.

Hmmm, that sucks. Strange, as that seems the easiest test (highest framerate). I did upgrade to 6.4 but not the proper way, I just installed over the top of 6.3.

 

I couldn't wait since the 6k mark was calling my name....

I like during the '01 benchmark portion of nature that the butterfly's look like they are on crack! :(

I've just been trying to find the top end of my CPU, so my mem speed is WAY down, which is probably why my '01 score is so much lower. '06 is higher cause the 1900 has a LOT more shader pipes than the 1800. Figure in another week or two, my system will be completely optimized.
