PurSuiT Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 *Bump* Just tested out my new system and wondering what ppl are getting now after almost a year. 3dMark03 - 12917 3dMark05 - 6151 WinXP SP2 AMD x2 3800+ (OC'd 2.4Ghz) 2Gb DDR500 (240Mhz) Sapphire x850XT PCIe System is running very stable, would like to get 2.5 or 2.6Ghz outta it, as I am water cooling with a Aquagate Mini 120 for low system temps and keeping mem temps down with a Abit Otes RAMFlow.

ellilion Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Well on my system now I'm getting 3d Mark03 -- 15223 3d Mark05 -- 7249 Athlon 64 3800+ (2.4 ghz)(939) no OC 2gb(2x1gb) OCZ cas 2.0 2-3-2-5-1t Dual Channel pc3200 400mhz -- no OC XFX 7800gt pci-e 450mhz core 1050mhz mem(factory OC) 81.87 forceware drivers System is very stable but i'm also not OC'd at all except my videocard but that's factory OC'd haven't tried squeezing any OC's out of system yet The main reason I'm scoring higher is my video card, 3dMark is only good for VC benchmarking nothing else you might beat me in a cpu bench like aquamark or sandra if the have any support for dual core Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Ob. Posted November 12, 2005 Author Share Posted November 12, 2005 Yeah, my system still lags woefully behind, but.... found this: Futuremark Interview And if you don't read it, then just check out this 3DMark over the years, which is at the end of the above interview. There is a SICK pic from the upcoming 3DMark at the bottom!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurSuiT Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 The new Cats gave me a decent push but still not enuff to get into the 7000's 3d Mark03 -- 13781 3dMark05 - 6630 Catalyst® Release Note Version 5.12 I would not expect the same results from non dual core systems as these drivers were optimized for x2 CPUs. Performance Improvements Catalyst 5.12 improves a variety of CPU-bound performance cases when an ATI product is installed in conjunction with a dual-core or hyperthreading CPU. Performance gains include: 3DMark05 gains as much as 5.7% 3DMark03 gains as much as 3.3% 3DMark2001 SE gains up to 10% Aquamark 3 gains up to 16% Comanche 4 improves as much as 20% Far Cry gains as much as 25% on some product configurations Half-Life 2 performance improves as much as 8% Splinter Cell improves as much as 8% in certain parts of the game Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness runs as much as 10% faster Unreal Tournament 2004 framerates improve as much as 10% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurSuiT Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 OC'd alittle but do not think I can push more then maybe another 100 out of it. Still running stable though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Ob. Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 A score of 2700 is only a dream for me right now..... but I like having a house to live in too!! Fortunately, my 9800 pro still holds its own in most games at 1024 x 768. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurSuiT Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Oh then you are going to hate this. http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=1558141 http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=4471876 I want to stop, but OCin' and 3DMark is just to addicting. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

B.Ob. Posted December 16, 2005 Author Share Posted December 16, 2005 Yes, ParoxysM. Many probably already knew that PurSuiT doesn't have the fastest video card on the planet, but certainly a jump of nearly 700 pts in 3dMark05 without a water cooled GPU is impressive!! Even Conan4Life's is twice the score I'd get on my current system, and your system, unless you've gone thru a complete upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heftysmurf Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Man computer speed has slowed down. I have had my rig for well over a year and pull 12314 in 3dmark 2k3. Makes me think is it worth upgrading? Also play a game 3dmark is a lame benchmark :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurSuiT Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 q0wned... Not by you! As I know you are to poor to have a 7800Gtx and a FX CPU. I would also like to see a link posted back to 3dmarks stats site before I believe it. Also play a game 3dmark is a lame benchmark :-) I know and I also only post scores on configs I run daily, the 6832 score for 3dmark05 is with the current settings I run all the games I currently play.

ParoxysM Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 2140 Well, my score quadrupled since the upgrade to Opty 165 / 1800xt. Now it's time to OC!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
