3dmarkvantage score

[invisik]

just wondering is this a good score?

no one knows? im familiar with 3dmark06 but not vantage.

Yes, that looks quite good and around where it should be. It is quite a bit higher than my single 4850 (as it should). Still a little short of the max, though. Think you can get another 2.6GHz out of that Q6600

 

[tonyn84]

just curious, what was your 3dmark06 score? i'm getting odd results with my 260, trying to figure out what it could be

 

[invisik]

i cant get 3dmark06 to work on my pc i just upgraded to vista 64bit and it stopped working. do u no where i cant find the 64bit one (trail version)? but with my previous 9800gx2 i scored 15,100 so im assuming for 1 gtx 260 slightly less then that, around 14,000 maybe. wats ur setup?

the mobo i have sucks at ocing its the msi p6n diamond. its good and stable with a nice sound card built in, 4pcie slots, but it doesnt oc to well. also im gonna run into power problems. im running the system
with 2 gtx 260 in sli oc 680/1085 with only a 500watt lol.

3dmark06 worked fine for me, can't remember where on their site I got it. I'm at work, I'll post my results when I get back home in about an hour. Compared to reviews my '06 results seemed low but I can't recall the vantage ones.

 

[tonyn84]

ok, vantage I got
3DMark Score: 8766
CPU Score: 22693 (seems odd)
Graphics Score: 7277

3DMark06
SM2.0: 3628
SM3.0: 4827
CPU Score: 2589

Don't have any good dx10 games to get a fps test, everything else runs great so I have no complaints thus far.

 

[invisik]

for ur vantage cpu u scored 2693 right and not 22693.
cpu score seems low if thats the case.

 

[tonyn84]

yeah ran it again, 23193 CPU

something seems amiss, as that beats their "fastest" system which, as much as I love my rig, shouldn't compete that well

this isn't the test where physics drivers were throwing off scores was it?

 

[invisik]

i dont get how thats possible. my q6600 oc at 3.0ghz doesnt even score half ur score (10413) and u scored higher then the highest score which was a quad core at 5.6ghz somethings not rite. idk about the driver? hmmm

 

[EXT64]

Do you have the magical NVidia Physics driver that boosts the CPU score stupidly high? I thought that it might have boosted it higher, though.

Edit: The one that lets PhysX run on the GPU.

 

[invisik]

it gives it that much of a boast!

 

[V3NOM]

lol he beats the fastest sytem...must have got some cheap liquid nitrogen from somewhere....

 

[tonyn84]

I do have that physx driver installed, i suppose i could take it off and test again but whatever, at last I know why Igot what I did now.

Sounds reasonable to me. My Q6600 at 3.0 with 4850 gets P7100. For this same cpu (and better), 4870, 9800gx2, 260, and 280 should get much higher.

 

[spathotan]

Its definetly the driver.

 

[clownbaby]

it's gotta be the physics drivers. my q6600@3.6 scores 34k, and i'm running an 8800gt. Total system score of like 7200.
