    coming down the old pipe as we speak...

    *begs for 4 figures*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,557 ✭✭✭dubdvd


    ill have some of that :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,951 ✭✭✭L5


    Im hoping to get ~ 4000 , with my 6800GT oc'd to ultra, p2.4ghz, 1 gig ram. This is roughly what people with similiar rigs are getting. They say it runs like a slideshow :(
    I pity people with 9800pro's and below!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,299 ✭✭✭✭BloodBath


    Have 50% of it now. Only an hour to go. I'm not getting a great speed on the download.

    L5 do you have that 2.4 overclocked? If not you're being very cpu limited using a 6800ultra. You wouldn't get the full potential of the card at 2.4ghz. If it's a 2.4 Northwood and not a willy it should go over 3ghz easily enough.

    4000 with a 6800gt

    omg....

    im at 99% now..i wanna cancel! lol

    edit

    ok installing now..ill be back in 10min in tears


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,943 ✭✭✭Mutant_Fruit


    I'm begging for triple figures! Will my geforce3 be up to the test? Will my 9600pro get 4 digits... who knows!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 807 ✭✭✭ViperVenoM


    **** ME

    lol, oh dear oh dear oh dear

    return to proxycon - 12.0fps!
    firefly forest - 7.5fps!
    canyon flight - 14.5fps \o/

    score - 2727!

    *tops himself*

    i also did the 2 cpu ones

    cpu test 1 - which is the canyon flight...wait for it..1.9fps! (with a 64 bit cpu..sigh)
    cpu test 2 - return to proxycon - 3.1fps!

    cpu score - 3676


    i feel well and truly ....gutted lol

    return to proxycon is cool though, the bloke with the gatling gun..i gotta get me one of those! :cool:

    *edit*

    btw my vid card is running at 455mhz core and 760mhz mem..so its a bit over the 412/730 stock...i think your geforce will die mate lol ..i didnt know if my card would even finish after the forest one :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,299 ✭✭✭✭BloodBath


    This always happens with new 3dmark tests. It takes about a year for people to get decent frame rates and another year for people to get good frame rates with newer gen graphics cards.

    Even 6800ultras and x800xt's won't fare too well on this benchmark frame rate wise. I lke the 3dmark tests though. They are usually a good indication of what games will look like in two years time.


    BloodBath


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 807 ✭✭✭ViperVenoM


    oh indeed the return to proxycon looks f00king awesome :D

    im not that bothered i guess...im only mid 7k on 03 so i expected pretty crap for this...they do look damn good though

    ill have to get a new vid card next year just so i can view them properly, it was the same with 03..stuttery as hell with 9200..got this card and..omg its a demo not a slideshow! :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 953 ✭✭✭StRiKeR


    hmm got higher score this time, maybe coz i reboot first, anyway

    3DMark Score: 4194

    CPU Score: 3639

    hey CombatCow what speed is the Ultra running at?

    mine at 400 core 1.1 mem

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 953 ✭✭✭StRiKeR


    how could it??? what cpu have you got??
    i dont hear anything!

    heh heh!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 807 ✭✭✭ViperVenoM


    i need a new video card

    ..and a new cpu :eek:

    lol...when i was getting 1fps at the beginning of the canyon 1..i thought it had crashed!...er..wots happen..! oh god its moved.....and again!....and so it went ..in super slow mo...i ended with something like..200 frames..is there an expression worse than *this sucks*..i think it would be pretty apt around now...although the watercooling will be set up next week..i will get 2fps!!!!! :p

    1354 3D Marks

    LoooooooL!
    Although it seems to be the correct ball-park figure for my specs.

    Athlon XP 2600+ @ Stock
    Radeon 9600pro @ Stock
    768MB DDR PC3200


    Going to apply some overclocks and see if I can break the 2k mark! :(

    -{edit}->> heh no hope... have CPU and GPU red-lined and I just about break ~1550 Marks.

    doesnt it just make you feel like crap as the screen stutters by with your precious rig on its knees begging for mercy :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,557 ✭✭✭dubdvd


    just ran it and got this score 5989

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,299 ✭✭✭✭BloodBath


    That's crazy Dub. Your score is well above the other high end systems. I wonder why but nice score non the less.

    Tremble in fear at my score of 2837.

    6000 is just..sick :p

    if i can get 3000 with my current card after a lot of tweaking/ocing the card and the cpu and what have you..then i guess ill be happy

    around 6000 are they actually rolling demos and not just stuttering crap?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,557 ✭✭✭dubdvd


    There not that bad at all but the cpu ones are in and around the 3 to 5 fps so there jumping but the frist couple look sh*t hot ..ill post some snaps in a while :D

    lol, I imagine it would if I'd gone out and spent €600 on the latest gfx card... Mark03 was choppy as hell for me, so no surprises here.
    Although I would have expected more of a show from the 'bleeding-edge' cards out there... think I'll hold off upgrading a while longer :p

    its only stutters in the cpu benchmark, the first couple of them are GPU test, run nice and smooth, frame rate not great but if you not looking at the frame rate, you wont notice the different! mines running stock, when I get my LGA775 3.4 and the board I'll bench it again with it, should get here in a week hopefully! i dont expect to get 6000 tho, as I be running stock first!

    I will be hoping to get something near yourself..

    You wouldnt run the specific CPU tests and post your results would you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,557 ✭✭✭dubdvd


    not sure whos cpu score your asking for ...heres mine cpu 4840

    Thanks for the posting yours. It was Bloodbath's I wanted as he has a similar clocked CPU.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre


    With my 9800 Pro OC'd I got 2560

    At stock I got 2249

    CPU score of 3957


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,299 ✭✭✭✭BloodBath


    Hey I didn't note it the fist time I ran at 3.6ghz and can't be arsed changing the settings aagain.

    At 3.5ghz I score 4566 in the cpu test.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre


    I am somewhat perplexed as to why CPU is so much lower.. I wonder if its the Gig of RAM?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 807 ✭✭✭ViperVenoM


    my cpu is a PoS it seems :eek:

    im only getting 3670ish

    its stock for now..but i thought amd64 was good for gaming and stuff!

    is it the general thing around here that Intel seem to be scoring higher cpu tests then...?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre


    The directly comparable AMD and Intel processors at stock are one story, i.e. the AMD tends to come out top. But you simply cannot OC the AMD64 processors the way you can the Intel processors.

    At that, its only a tiny difference.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 807 ✭✭✭ViperVenoM


    yes but...are you telling me a 3.5ghz intel SHOULD" beat my amd64 3400+ by like...25%...i knew they was different..but not that much!

    its just im noticing a lot of intel users getting 4500+ and us amd64 guys getting around 3600's...

    seems a little odd imo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,299 ✭✭✭✭BloodBath


    Well my ram was running at 500mhz for that test with 2.5-4-4-7 timings and a system fsb of 1000 so I'm sure that helped. A gig of it at that.


    BloodBath


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre


    That exactly what mine is running at too... The gig is the only difference..

    i.e. my FSB is 250 with a multiplier of 14 with Gold OCZ pc4000 ram at 2.4-4-4-7


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,299 ✭✭✭✭BloodBath


    That's weird, it must be the extra ram. I'd say the benchmark must use more than what you have free so the ram has to constantly update from the virtual memory on the hd. Your processor would be spending more time doing this so your losing some performance.

    That's a pretty high spec system, you really should be running 1gb of ram. Time to order another stick I think.

    got a score of 6x4 ..is that any good?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,299 ✭✭✭✭BloodBath


    **** that's the best score so far.

    How did you manage that, you must have one serious system. I wish I could get 6x4.


    BloodBath


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,415 ✭✭✭Optikus


    Using the latest mully technology from clonbrusk... your system could't handle 6x4 technology i think. have you seen it in action?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,299 ✭✭✭✭BloodBath


    No but that sounds wicked. This mully technology must cost a fortune. I'd love to see it in action.


    BloodBath


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,415 ✭✭✭Optikus


    check out my homepage bloodbath have pics and vids to download also have some benchmarks up.. ohh and some of the pics from the LAN last week.
    6 ****s and 4 holes , you do the math. <--- should have that as my sigy should't i.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre


    Whats you homepage.. cant see it in your sig!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre


    What the **** is mully??? I am picking up piss taking vibes!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,299 ✭✭✭✭BloodBath


    I've done some research on mully technology and it's pretty ground-breaking.

    Just google it, there are plenty of links.

    6x4 is the future.
