is this normal for 3dmark05

exodusprime1337 · Mar 18, 2008, 03:10 AM

so i made the switch from xp 32 bit to vista ultimate 64bit and i noticed something very very odd. my cpu score in 3dmark05 with vista was vastly different from xp. persay my cpu scores came out to this

windows xp 32bit sp2: 9356
windows vista 64bit sp1: 17132

how is that possible, on top of it my overall scores were largely the same, in fact i only lost about 100 or so points going from xp32bit to vista64bit

xp: 18584
vista: 18428

the odd thing as well is my cpu score in 3dmark06 is about 2700 in xp and in vista it's only 2550?

It could be just a calculation problem, or a glitch. I wouldn't worry about it myself.
