Did you forget that you can set up Triple Buffering in that test?

EEK you guys are both useing 875 chipsets LOL

useall over 22,000K here with my X800XL but have stuff
like folding a home etc still runing also so my results can't
be trusted

sandok what do you have you CP settings set to?
Try setting the slider on performance and see if that
helps... run only the game tests, loop it a couple times

Makesure your just after a fresh boot, close any unneeded
programs, make sure nothing is "running" in the back ground
be it spyware or a mssanger serive or anything can effect your
results

I have highest mipmaps, normal Ai and no v-snyc...

What triple buffering are you talkign about dyre?

The thing is i remeber with the 5.7/5.8 I got quite high scores.

Nothing is running in the background

And we don't all got money for the newer platorms mate.

Apart from 01, verything is spot on

Tripple buffering the the bechmarks settings, default is double,

Try your slider all the way over on the deafult for performance
see what it does for you.

EDIT

with the main slider on Peformance disables V sync by default
(sets it to always off)so that should take care of it

so were your scores higher before or after?

my score is in my sig. my rig scores almost 27k w/my chip OCed to 4Ghz and gfx card OCed to hell and back

Sandok · Oct 8, 2005, 06:19 AM

Well I used to hit pver 20k.... On stock

Gonna test later everything like how neon said.

CDsDontBurn · Oct 8, 2005, 06:25 AM

you want to set your v-sync to off, and set your D3D and OpenGl settings to off like neon said. maybe installing the 5.9s would also help out some?

Sandok · Oct 8, 2005, 08:12 AM

The 5.9 ARE installed and i DO have v-ysnc off. Still no go

With neons idea I get JUST 20k but still...

CDsDontBurn · Oct 8, 2005, 02:01 PM

remember that 01 is also CPU intensive. a significant reason why my score is so high compared to yours, is because of my insane OC i had going on when i ran the benchmark. At stock speeds, i'd be scoring around around 20k as well on my rig
