Post Your 3dmark05 Scores

my new 7600gt got 5983 stock and 6694 OCed at 617/1650

Thats slightly low for that card, also so is the post below the one above about the x1800xt, meybe you should consider the rest of your system and identifying why the score is lower than it should be.
 
WOOO, I've been going nutty with the fsb on my rig.. up to 340mhz, and stable enough for some 3dmark05 runs.

I got 10,989, and i've got proof this time! :D

gonna see if i can get those last 11 points i need. Hopefully i can edit this post soon :laugh:

EDIT: YAY... 11,018 :D

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=2176180

Both x850's were @ 639/624, but it's soo cpu limited it doesn't make much difference between that and 540/590. There's one blokey with a core2duo above me scoring 13,826. In the first 2 tests he was faster than me, but on the last one i kept up :D

Interestingly enough i was better off going for [14x 337mhz = 4.72ghz] than i was with [16x 326mhz = 4.9ghz] So i guess crossfire demands a very high fsb to run efficiently. I can't go any higher on the fsb without puttin in a divider for the memory, and that decreases performance a lot! And for some reason the memory doesn't clock faster with looser timings.

Nice scores none the less! Gotta say though, one reason why I have always been a bit put off by SLi/Crossfire is the CPU bottlenecking, to get the full benefit of the graphics rig you gotta have some serious processing power and with the price of an Sli/crossfire mobo, 2 decent graphics cards and an even more high end CPU = serious money.
 
yeah, i know what you mean. Thankfully i havn't had to spend much money on mine :D The x800gto2 cost next to nothing, and i got the x850cf off warup for $130. The only thing that needs upgrading is the P4, to a Pd 950 or something if i can get one cheap.

I might go over to AMD for my next rig (dispite conroe) when amd and ati have got settled and started producing some awsome cpu's with uber ATI chipsets

Damn! you go Squirrel :D
 
14465?! Dang, that's awesome. You can see my score in my signature.

That was using my X2 3800+ @ 2.2 GHz and the x850 CFE and x850xt @ 590/610 each.
 
demon your score and mine are off by 9 points.... i need to raise my score, i just ran this and dint even realy try

my sig has my 1800xt score

has anyone with a single 7800gt beat my old 7800gts score (air cooled, water vs air isnt fair), im still trying to find someone

not bad for an x850. your really having to bang out those cpu mhz tho, damn crappy intel p4s :p
 
Alright, this talk about 3DMark05 got me excited again, so I clocked a little bit higher again and came up with 10,711 points this time. Here's the link:

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=2177003

I'll try to clock even higher later, but right now, it's 6:30 and I get up at 7:15 to go to work (been packin up to leave for school). Shew, it's gonna be a long day tomorrow.
 
wooo, a little x850 Crossfire competition :D

In that run, you did better than me in 'GT2 - Firefly Forest', that x2 looks like it's helping a lot, see if you can get it up to 2.5ghz.
 
11,000 breaker!

Finally! I broke 11,000! My score this time around was 11,034. I don't know why, but for some reason I decided to play with my cpu clock again, because my video clocks seemed to be maxed out, and now it's going A LOT higher than it ever used to let me go. I used to not even be able to boot when I set my CPU clock @ 2.25 GHz, but now it's set at 2.32 GHz and seems to be running completely stable. I'm really excited about this. I think it might have to do with the fact that I use a fan controller now, whereas I used to have 10 fans that ran at their stock speeds, 4 of which were plugged directly into the motherboard. Now, All my fans (with the exception of my x850xt fan) are plugged into my 2 fan controllers. I boot with the fan controllers set to the lowest possible power, so I think that is leaving plenty of room for my cpu to draw enough power to boot and then stay stable after I turn the power up on the fan controllers later on. Well, whatever the reason, I'm just excited to see the improvements!
 
Keepin one step ahead of the game :D @ a 341mhz fsb no less :eek:

Saw you beat my score and decided to try harder :p

11,099: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=2177857


Nice you see your cpu's doing well thought demonbrawn. Any cpu improvement helps greatly with crossfire, it needs so much cpu power to do the load sharing :(
 
just for alec this but 2005 definitely dosnt need 1 gig of ram to run.. i used to run it regularly with 512 on board.. when it first came out 512 wasnt unusual on a gaming system..

some of these scores seem a little "high" to me.. my sandy core at 3.2 gig and 1900xtx at 690/800 only produces 12333..

are we all useing the 2005 default settings..???

trog
 
same question here...
 
Blast Infrared! It's on... hahah, yeah Once I get all settled in at school I'm gonna get back into attempting higher clocks. I just wish my vid cards to push out more. Oh, and also, F.E.A.R. all of a sudden started working fine with CrossFire. I think the CPU overclock might have been the reason??? I don't know for sure, but do answer the previous question, I am using default settings.

Edit: BTW Infrared, what's the default clock for your CPU?

Yeah, i've noticed a nice boost in fear, it's suddenly running a lot smoother than previosly, so obviously the extra cpu power helps a lot.

What was the previous question?
 
10222 :: X1900XT stock 625/725 + E6400 2.66GHz + 512MB Random 5-5-5-15

Quite a jump from X800GTO 660/645 + Opteron 146 @ 2.9GHz...
;)

Yes default settings and Alec was just getting a bit confused, 1Gig RAM required for 2006 and I think it's his OS that is prob preventing 2005.

Forgive me for saying but you should be doing better than that.
 
Tatty_One,
I know, I know. :D

It's just that I refuse to OC on air. I don't even bother to dable with all those horribly noisy fans required for OC'ing on air. :roll:
The usual CPU-MCH-GPU water loop is unusable at the moment due to my hasty transition from Opty146+X800 to E6400+X1900.
 
i dont have horrible noisy fans and i am on air.. and my cpu is running a nice 800 mhz overclock.. your 1900xt is good for an extra 1000 or so points useing the ati overdrive without any noise or heat increase..

and i have an expensive water cooling system sat in a box cos i cant be arsed to install it.. finding somewhere to put the dual core rad.. fans.. and all the pipes and stuff is just too much trouble for what i see as next to no real life performance gain..

trog
 
This seems kinda low for x800GTO but I just got 4445. This is on a P4Xeon 2.2ghz (x2).
 
well cant run it how i want but here's mine
oh yea ocing the cpu made like 3000+ more points
