Is this ok???

Datagg

Hello all,

Dabled a bit into oc last nite. Using the ATI tool I achieved from what it set is 352.50/328.50 .

and put fsb up a bit also, to get a bit more outta cpu.

Here is the history of 3dmark results...Oh also the newest set of omegas...

My question is based on my spec, is this a good score.....??also, but dont have here was a score of 37,576 in aquamark, does that sound right with my specs and with oc done....



Score: 5220

Date: 2004-01-26
CPU: Intel Pentium 4 2519 MHz
GPU: ATI RADEON 9700 PRO
353 MHz / 329 MHz

thanks guys, oh 1 more things, how do i know ifmy dual channel memory is actually in dual mode......Have it in the slots right according to MSI, but I do you really know???

Your scores look pretty good. You should use the "dynamic compare" on future mark using "exact specifications" box at the bottom, then hit "show me the results".....or whatever it is

also if you go to CPU-Z and download the CPU-Z program it will tell you just about everything you want to know on your settings, like voltages, DRAM timings and even if you are using Dual Channel memory and of course the memory timings. It is a very helpful tool with overclocking.

Let us know how it works out for you. And of course make sure that you dont over do it when overclocking, something can always go wrong when you dont want it to. Course most of us just use that for an excuse to buy upgrades....

unffortunatlly (mind my spelling :O ) for us, overcloackers, CPU-Z will not tell us Vcore (CPU voltage) but only Vdd (chipset voltage). But as for everithing else, yeap, it does the job lovelly. You should try OC-ing your vid card yourself, they usually go more then ATI Tool wants you to know

GutterPunk

that isnt bad.... gosh.... im impressed for 9700 pro

Vampyromaniac

pretty good scores there, but hmmm
what driver are you using? I think something is odd, but maybe it's because you're on Intel, and I'm AMD

I ran the benchmark at the same vid card speeds and got the following:
324/311: 4645
344/324: 4870

couldn't get 353/329, so ran at:
351/331: 4944 (now it's lower than yours, due to your CPU overclock?)

Anyway this is on:
AMD AthlonXP 1800+ 1529MHz
ATI AIW Radeon 9700 Pro
Windows XP
Catalyst 4.2 driver

and the default benchmark settings of course

G@MeBoY

Your scores are pretty good, difference between yours and his are in CPU speed off course he has 1GHz faster CPU If you would replace your CPU for lets say XP2600+ you would get higher scores then him, i bet on some 200marks in 3dmark2003

Vampyromaniac

actually I did notice his CPU, but my 324/311 and 344/324 scores are higher than his then the score at 351/331 is lower (like I think it should be anyway)
. . . that's where my confusion is

BWX

I got quite a bit higher 3dmrk03 score with my 9700pro just ocing the core and leaving the ram (almost) stock-
of course I was using omega's too...

Basically trying to get more OC on the core by leaving the ram lower than max OC to allow for better core OC.

Vampyromaniac

I'll give that a shot later but I doubt my core can go higher . . . so far my max score is 5365 at: 392 core / 351 mem

G@MeBoY

well, you see, in default tests your CPU can handlle what GPU is asking, on higher GPU clocks your CPU just cant provide enough bandwith/speed. Also note that you are running on TOTALY diffrent platform than he is. Driver versions my be diffrent (I havent payed attention to this so I just said it), RAM is also very important...you are getting fine resaults, you shouldn't be confused, systems are too diffrent for close comparation of vid cards

BWX

Same exact drivers- systems are actually pretty similar in speed.

G@MeBoY

my bad. I was reffering to Vampyromaniac scores

BWX

oh yeah definitely different than, funny thing is my CPU is in fact an 1800xp+ though- just OC'd a "little".
