I was wondering if this was some low scores for 3dmark05 for my sons computer. Here are the specs:
3.2ghz P4 Prescott
1gig Corsair Value DDR 3200 RAM
80gig 7200 HD
P4P800SE Asus Mobo
7600gs 512mb Video Card (AGP)
3dmark05 score of 2929
Is this normal for that kind of setup?
My own computer has:
AMD 64 3200 (socket 939)
2gig XMS DDR 3200 Ram
80gig 7200 HD
Asus MVP Mobo
x1800xt 256mb Video Card
It gets about 9600 score.
Are these seem right? Just wanting to know if I have a crap setup or if this is pretty much in line with the equipment that I have. Thanks in advance for your relpy(s).

when your son plays games or anything of that sort does he enjoy them? do they run as good as he would like them to ?if so then there is no problem. 3Dmarks are useless, and are just anoying
i would probably get a 1000points but i play the games i want the way i want and thats what matters. so dont worry about 3Dmarks

Have you updated his drivers? If not try that. If you just did and scores fell. Remove display drivers, install older Driver.
I just updated my dual Asus 7800GTX cards and they went from one card doing 9000 on 3dmark05 to both doing 6000 on 3dmarko5. Installed Nvidia's latest driver (Not Asus Latest) and all is well.

Yeah latest drivers from nVidia were used. Anti-virus program running in background. I just installed new video card, but didn't check with older setup with 9800pro 128mb video card. I used driver cleaner pro to remove ati video drivers, prior to nvidia install, so don't think that is holding me up (not sure though). I think he might have lingering spam/trojans. I ran adaware program and got several items to come up. I think it removed them, but they seem to come back after getting back onto the internet. I think I'm going to format hard drive soon anyway.

i would have expected a 4400-5600 score form experience with different setups. Make sure only around 25 processes are running in task manager, disable unnecessary services, set 3dmark05 priority to high in task manager( well in games if you don get performance then you increase priority so why not with 3dmark05
). Its not some funky turbo cache type board is it?heres a benchie - http://www.digital-daily.com/video/chaintech-7600gs_512...

WTF? i can get 9300( maybe an extra 200 in XP havnt tested as Vista fecked my XP which i must fix ) on my setup without changing quality in NVidia CP and my 6400 is running at 2.7GHz

No no turbo cache video card. Didn't know there was a setting in the task manager to set priority. So I would start up 3dmark05 and go to task manager to set priority? I was thinking that the 2929 score was crap! I know if I had more memory that the score might increase, but with 1 gig in dual channel I thought I would have a higher mark.

yep you can( its good for video encoding/decoding ), but thats not gonna increase it by 1000 or anything, start 3dmark05, before you run the test open task manager, right click on the process select 'Set Priority' and set it to high
I would think you( your sons PC ) has spyware or processes stealing CPU cycles/causing unnecessary harddrive access, so most importantly check the number of processes in task manager and all the services running, even post screenies if you can and check total memory in use after loading XP before you launch 3DMark05
and im still trying to figure out how your own 3dmark05 scores are so high?????

Which score? my 2nd computer?
I think that spyware is affecting it, so that is why I'm thinking of formating the HD, since it's been about 1 1/2years since the last format

Sorry,i updated my original post, please reread it, i ment your sons PC, you dont have to format it, check the processes, spybot search and destroy, lavasoft adaware and hijack this will destroy most of the crap on the system if there is any( except trojans which can replace themselves )

I use System Mech 7pro and like it alot. You can try it for 30 days free here WWW.IOLO.COM.
My 800XT AIW AGP with E4300@2.4GHZ scores 6000 in 3dmarko5. Copies movies much faster than my Opteron 185.
I'm not to hip on 7600.
Good luck

also remove any old nvidia driver/drivers as per the installation guide on http://www.tweakguides.com then reinstall the latest drivers, download and install the latest dx9 drivers from the M$ site also
Oh and as was said switch of everything that will use CPU like anti virus, firewalls etc( reenable them afterwards )

your x800xt is probably as good if not better than the 7600gs except it lacks shader model 3, your CPU is also several generations better
Incidentally i got 6600 in 3dmark05 with a 4200+( @2.5GHz ) and a highly OC'd x850pro, 6800 if i tweaked the quality to performance

Yikes that is pretty low... my system at stock speeds is around 5XXX points, but as you can see with my overclock... my 3700+ / x800xl gets just a hair under 7000 points.
I understand that people say 3DMARK scores don't matter... but perhaps they can be, and perhaps in this case are, an indication of a hardware/software issue.
Could always format, flash bios, make sure every driver is installed with its own seperate restart afterwards and install 3DMARK05 only, and do a new test.
Then overclock that mother to the moon and test her again.
my 2 cents.

great OC dude, never tried any volt mods on my x850 pro but i got the 16 pipelines open and it was obviously an XT that some tests because core wouldnt go over 513 stable, mem would go to around 603

I only could afford a 7600gs with my budget
Would've needed to get a better PSU to get a better video card
, so that was my only option at the time (was for a birthday present). I'll try the System Mech 7pro and re-run with no antivirus program and see if that helps things out. I have adaware and search and destroy on the system already, so that is covered for now. I run virus scans about 1-2 times a week, but with a teenager it's hard to get computer time from the system.
