AquaMark 3 competition

Alec§taar · Aug 23, 2006, 12:28 PM

See my subject-line/title above!

1.) Download & install AQUAMARK 3 from here:

http://www.softpedia.com/progDownloa...load-4815.html

Run it @ the defaults, noted in this thread:

(That is what the test defaults to, so it is just a matter of starting it up, & "set-it-&-forget-it"/autopilot, & watch it run (takes about 3-4 minutes max to complete)).

==================================================
When you guys run the AquaMark 3 test? Do it THIS way:
==================================================
A.) Remove as MANY BACKGROUND APPS RUNNING AS YOU CAN, & even stop your EXPLORER.EXE SHELL using taskmgr.exe!

* An example post of someone doing this is here you can refer to & follow, has details, for BACKGROUND APPS CUTOFFS OPTIMIZATIONS:

http://forums.techpowerup.com/showth...138#post140138
---------------------------------------------------------------
B.) Stop as many services as you can using services.msc (or, via msconfig, whatever you are most comfortable with): You (@ least I can) can run with this MINIMUM SET OF SERVICES GOING (or just set ones you are NOT SURE OF, to MANUAL startup in services.msc):

DCOM Server Process (it may be possible to DISABLE this one, but some apps need it)

EventLog (may be possible to disable, but not 100% sure, because some security settings demand logging & if unable to log? System WILL shutdown!)

Plug and Play

Remote Procedure Call (RPC) - NEVER SHUT THIS DOWN or your system WILL LAG BAD!

Security Accounts Manager

(Some of those? You may not even HAVE on XP, not sure anymore, but point is there! ABOVE ALL - If you are NOT SURE what to do here? Ask, or just don't do anything @ all... it can be 'somewhat risky')

** An example post of someone doing this is here you can refer to & follow, has details, for SERVICES CUTOFFS OPTIMIZATIONS:

http://forums.techpowerup.com/showth...048#post140048
---------------------------------------------------------------
C.) Lastly, Optionally startup AquaMark 3.0 @ HIGH CPU PRIORITY

(Yes, it's doable, by using a batchfile w/ this type of commandlines in it, as AquaMark 3 may not let you alter its CPU priority directly via taskmgr.exe (had to figure THIS one out, lol!)):

C:
cd C:\Program Files\AquaMark3
START /HIGH aquamark.exe

NOTE: When you are @ highest o/c's possible for your rig? It can get "touchy" using HIGH cpu priority, SO, if you can't finish the test? Step down to AboveNormal or Normal CPU priority via taskmgr.exe on ScienceMark2.exe!
---------------------------------------------------------------
D.) When done Restart services you need: Done via service.msc right-click popup menu or START/STOP command there, & restart explorer.exe (your desktop GUI shell) using taskmgr.exe's File menu, RUN submenu item.
==================================================

2.) ALSO, CPU-z 1.36 DOWNLOAD (needed to verify CPU-RAM mhz used for test):

http://www.cpuid.com/download/cpu-z-136.zip

3.) When done:

Upload a photo of your score + CPU-z 1.36 CPU and RAM tab data to this thread + your vidcard type & it's O/C & post as shown (between the double-dashed lines example below):

==================================================
My AquaMark 3 test score result:

My CPU-z 1.36 CPU-mhz data:

My CPU-z 1.36 RAM-mhz data:

(My vidcard type & current O/C is in my signature)
==================================================

APK

P.S.=> This test seems like a GOOD "gamer's benchmark" for indicating what kind of a gaming machine you've put together, BOTH CPU & GRAPHICS CARD-WISE!

(Plus, unlike 3dMark 05/06, you don't need 1gb of RAM on your mobo in chips to use/run it - which is the case for me @ least, currently)

So let's "have @ it!" & Good luck to ALL contestants/contenders!

REMEMBER: "ONLY THE FASTEST SYSTEMS NEED APPLY!"... apk

There. 82.2k. min 44.66FPS, max 117.7FPS. Not bad from a 6800GT @ 432 \ 1.2GHz

Alec§taar · Aug 23, 2006, 04:01 PM

Ketxxx's post form was acceptable also!

(I don't know this forum's board syntax for that form, so I use single screenshots above is all)...

Albeit, Ketxxx currently lacks CPU-z data... he may have missed it as I edited that as a requested requirement, w/ vidcard type data + o/c on it if any.

HIS ESTIMATE WAS VERY CLOSE THOUGH!!!

* Vidcard types I can get from your System Specs/Signatures (as mine has my vidcard data in it readily for observation by others for this test).

(SO, PLEASE, FUTURE TESTERS? Be sure your o/c data for your vidcards is there please also, somewhere & up to date, along w/ CPU-z 1.36 CPU/RAM mhz data as well!)

APK

P.S.=> Thanks! Let's have some fun @ this one too... apk

Alec§taar · Aug 23, 2006, 04:29 PM

Watercooled kicks butt on vidcard score for you Lt JWS, & that looks like a NEW CPU SETUP for you...

(E.G./I.E.-> I don't remember you having a CONROE, let alone a Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 model... not from the tests before in Super-Pi &/or ScienceMark 2.0 @ least!)

* NICE SCORES!

APK

P.S.=> That's how many folks now (Me, giorgos.th, Ketxxx, gri3f, & Lt JWS (5 so far))...

I'll start charts & such (avg. analysis etc.) when I get more than 10 or 10... apk

Lt_JWS · Aug 23, 2006, 04:42 PM

Im pretty much @ my limit of my setup... im badly FSB limited

400x8 max boot and then i have to go the rest of the way in windows.

Well, "limited" or not, you ARE in the lead currently!

P.S.=> Heh, if YOU'RE "limited", I wonder what the rest of US are, behind you! apk

mandelore · Aug 23, 2006, 06:54 PM

Im not having a good time here, its an old program so I dont understand what the hell the problem is, im getting around 15k for the cpu but my gfx card is just pulling 14k??? Its highly overclocked too, im not happy with this at all. I should not be getting that result, I feel quite insulted

Even had problems with AM3 not running properly...

So I aint gonna post my score till I fix this, damn frikkin piece of crap. I will post again soon when I finish beating the crap outa Aquamark

Especially when another x1900 user here is getting a far higher score with a lower clock...

Lt_JWS · Aug 23, 2006, 07:33 PM

You CPU score is about right, with my Opty 148 @ 3.1ghz i got 15.5K CPU, i hear those crossfire boards are buggy... I only got up to 108K with my Opty and X1900 setup so lets just say AM3 doesn't like amd/ati too much lol

mandelore · Aug 23, 2006, 07:45 PM

Thanks feel a bit more reassured now but still, its not too impressive. Especially with 3dmark/sciencemark scores being at the higher end. Shame tho coz i would have really liked to have a representative score to post here, oh well, cant have it all i suppose

did you put the hotfix that is for AM3?

what hotfix mate?

(I don't know this forum's board syntax for that form, so I use single screenshots above is all)... Albeit, Ketxxx currently lacks CPU-z data... he may have missed it as I edited that as a requested requirement, w/ vidcard type data + o/c on it if any. HIS ESTIMATE WAS VERY CLOSE THOUGH!!! * Vidcard types I can get from your System Specs/Signatures (as mine has my vidcard data in it readily for observation by others for this test). (SO, PLEASE, FUTURE TESTERS? Be sure your o/c data for your vidcards is there please also, somewhere & up to date, along w/ CPU-z 1.36 CPU/RAM mhz data as well!) APK P.S.=> Thanks! Let's have some fun @ this one too... apk Last edited by Alec§taar; Aug 23, 2006 at 04:09 PM.

So I aint gonna post my score till I fix this, damn frikkin piece of crap.

I only got up to 108K with my Opty and X1900 setup so lets just say AM3 doesn't like amd/ati too much lol __________________ HP G6-1B60us AMD A4 laptop
