B.Ob. Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Nice, never took the time to lap myself. Guess it does really lower it a couple of degrees C. Are you just OC'n the cpu's fsb, nothing else? (ram, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParoxysM Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Thats a low 3dmark06 score for your system. I get about 200 more with 18 month old components. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaPoets Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Yeah my 3dmark06 score is low and I have been trying to analyze my system to determine where I am going wrong. I am thinking that it's my ram, it is very cheap ram even though it's pc2-6400 but I bought it over a month ago for only $88 (2 gigs). The ram I do have overclocked a bit but I can only get it to run at about 900mhz before the system doesn't boot. I'm going to run lots of stress tests over the next few days and then re-run 3dmark06.

DaPoets Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Silly me.... I was just told that my benchmark is low because I ran my benchmarks while I was still in my dual screen mode... I have to revert back to just one monitor and then run 3dmark06.... makes sense I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Ob. Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Honestly, I wouldn't mess with the ram, run it at 800mhz, with the same or slightly slower (larger) timings than what the mem is rated for. That might mean adjusting the mem/cpu divider is the m/b requires you to do that. I would think for your quad, your cpu score would be over half that 3dmark06 score.

DaPoets Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 After some tweaking I am up to 6059... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conan4Life Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 havent done tweaking ressently also running at stock speeds logically my cpu is 2000mhz, my mobo has a 1000mhz fsb, memorry at 1066mhz so shouldnt be any bottlenecks still gotta fill thoes other 2 memory slots and a second 1650xt wanna see this crossfire in action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Ob. Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 DaPoets, as a reference. Here is my score 6036 You can look under the config tab for my specs, which are basically an Opty (dual core) 170 clocked up to 2.8GHz, 2G of ram, and a x1900XTX (stock clocks) video card. Also note worthy to compare: SM 2.0 Score 2330 Marks SM 3.0 Score 2635 Marks CPU Score 2088 Marks Your CPU should be WAY ahead of mine, where my vid card should be a bit higher than yours.

DaPoets Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 With that setup are you able to drop your multiplier and increase your FSB because I don't recall... If so try a multipier of 6 and FSB of 475 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
