3DMark06 - Whatchu got?!?!

[Mango]

I knew I should have gone with Asus for my motherboard (ECS )

fixed!

Not bad Foo!! Not bad at all

Still can't compete with SLI and crossfire though...

my silly mATX is just too small to compete... I don't think I could cram another graphics card in here with my watercooling anyway.

welll, maybe I could... but I'd only have the capacity to watercool one gpu and have to air cool the other. UNLESS, i did some nifty heatpipe watercooling idea....

580MB? You gotta be kidding, what a waste of time.

blah blah blah


You never say that when downloading your episodes of RamBro.

HA HA. RAMBRO! FUNNEH!

[slade]

hmm... i just installed it, and now it says i need at least 1GB ram to run it i had to send back the corsair ram cause my system was having problems, so i only have 512mb.

that was a waste of a few hours downloading and ~500MB of my hard drive...

aww, i guess my computer just sucks... i thought it wasnt that bad too

one thing though, on the test results it says 200 MHz FSB, my processor should be 800 MHz FSB... whats going on there? my guess is that would be a rather big problem...

oh, but at least the new corsair ram seems to be working fine.

oh, and... mango, how can i make my computer not suck? it seems to have trouble in that category.

[Mango]

Your FSB is quad pumped so the 200 MHz is correct. As far as making your system not "suck"....well this score is relative to system similar to your own. I bet compared to systems similarly built, your score is just fine.

quad pumped?

i was joking about it sucking. i just thought it was a fairly good computer though (even if premade...) but its score is less than a third of yours, and the FPS on most of the tests was horrible.

This site explains it nicely.

http://www.devhardware.com/c/a/Computer-Processors/Intel-Pentium-4-3.0C-800MHz-FSB/

It has to do with how the Intel chipset "multiplies" the system bus speed. There are four 200MHz "lanes" if you will, and the CPU cycles the bus 4 times per clock, thus, your 200MHz system bus is seen by the CPU as being 800MHz.

AMD 64 nForce 4 based systems use a similar system, however since the memory controller is built into the CPU (and there is no "Northbridge") the efffective system bus is actually 1,000MHz, but it is "double pumped" so it is effectively 2,000MHz. Yet another reason AMD systems are far better for gaming verses Intel architecture....for the time being.

My CPU scores would pwnz you all dual Opteron 246, add in the 7800 gtx i have been to lazy to install and the 4 gigs of ram = fast load times and fps

HAHA. I got dual AMD MP 2800+, OC to 2.4Ghz. WAY CHEAPER. ALMOST AS GOOD.

And I am not tellin how I OC, its my secret.

[FlawleZ]

Not a single competator! Not even Foo! Man, I had more faith in AO thinking I'd have a real fight on my hands. The old AO would never take it laying down like it does now.


What happened to this place.

Dude, its AO. Not Guru3d. LoL...

I'd totally run it but 3DMark06 would own my machine. What about an 05 thread? I've got 4123 out of my 6600GT on 3DMark05. I'd be 1500's on 06. Ah well. Don't care to find out really. Plays my games at whatever settings I want.

Make an 05 thread, I'll pwn the newbs in that one too. I'm somewhere around 13,000 ish in 05....I forget.
