just got my new ti4200 and Im only getting about 7000 marks in 3d mark 2001 se my system specs is

1.1GHz Tbird
Asus A7V M/B
512MB PC133
GForce 4 Ti4200 64MB
1024x768 @ 60hz

is that a bad score? i use to get 2000, if its a bad score, could you point me out to some tweak guides around the net

another thing is, i ran the test at the default setting, something like 1024x768 w/o AA, is 7025 a good score with those settings? or did u guys think I was running at a better setting?

sounds ok... your cpu is the limiting factor here..
if u want 2 improve performance... do the following,,
In Bios:
set Cas letency to 2
set Row precharge time to 2T
set Ras pulse width to 5T
set Ras to Cas deplay to 2
enable 1T command
enable bank interleave to 4way
enable fast command
Disable all unnecessary features such as onboard audio...etc.

for your driver setting:
disable Vsync under Direct 3d and OpenGL, i'm not familier with Nvidai drivers, so some one else?

First, the 1.1GHZ Tbird limits, second the PC133 is a bad nono. A brand new KT333 plus 512MB DDR PC2700, and an AXP 1800+ would yeild as high as 9000 with such setup. But yeah when I look back at your current rig, that is actually very nice.

I get about 8600 with a Ti4200 with a TBird 1333 with 256 PC2100. The limiting factor probably is the CPU/memory. Before I had my Ti4200 I had a GeForce 256. When the chip and CPU was on Sis 745 mobo with PC133, it got 2500 marks, but when I got an nForce mobo with PC2100 the score shot up to 3300, so memory really does play a huge part in getting good scores.

I'd say that's a great score for your hardware.

I scored something like 7300 with the following:

Tbird 1000 @1500 mhz (150 * 10)
Epox EP-8KTA3PRO
256MB SDRAM (PC150, cas 2/2/2)
Radeon 8500 OEM 64MB
1024x768, 32-bit color (default)

When I overclock the video card up from 250/275 to 275/300 I score <A HREF="http://service.madonion.com/compare?2k1=3869294" target="_new">8297</A>.

[EDIT]
Oops, that's my score at 300/325 overclock.
