Thanks for the offer, eidairaman1. But your AMD Athlon is not in the processor sequence. What we are doing is we are testing UPGRADES to an AGP system via AGP GPU, or via CPU. Unless you have a similar CPU to what is in the chart... there is no where to put your X1950 results without starting a whole new processor sequence.

For posterity, please post your benchies if you like. But dont be disappointed if they dont make it into the table.

nah i was just goin to post them to give a reference what to expect from such an old machine.

I posted some benches of my S478 system with the HD3850 installed in the AGP HD3850 thread found here, if it is of any relevance.

Your memory (copy) speeds seems to be working fine (consistent with my DDR at 200). I've updated the OP table with more CPU benchmark stats. Perhaps you should try all the CPU and GPU tests to see where you are losing out.
