I have to agree with you! I thought the whole Idea of a benchmark was to have exactly the same settings for the things that effect the test so you could compare computers at there core performance level. What is the point if its not a fair test?


Yes, its absolute pap this benchmarking!

My benchmark is this, before, FS2002 maxxed & 8x AA with 8XAF (Purely for screenshots!) about 9fps over cities at a max! I now can get 18 > 20 fps!

3D Mark would have you believe my old pc was exactly as good as my new one, it isn't.

What, ultimately, is the point of such an obviously crap "benchmark" !!!

My remedy is to remove the damn thing and get back to silly fps figures and stutter free gaming.

(Don't mention CFS3!  Roll Eyes )

Paul.

P.S. You not got your's yet Bird?

Newegg is the way to go in the states...can't beat them since they have a warehouse on both sides of the nation!  And they use FedEx!


I got around 1200 in 3D Mark03.  Probably will at least double when I get my 9700pro. 8)

Other side of the pond mate! In Britain we only need one warehouse!

I don't really mind when it comes as long as it works when it comes! They had to completely build it from scratch as you can choose every single bit thats in it! So thats why it takes so long!

Glad you finally saw some increase in benchmark performance! What was wrong?

Are you brave enough to give us your 3dMark03 score?

May I ask whats wrong with leaving the poor thing alone?

PS. Interesting background you've got there!

2879, went to upload it (to give you a compare URL) and it told me I'd run the old version! Tsh, post another in a bit with the patch applied... Roll Eyes

Background?  Flying on L.S.D. ?  Grin

It's interesting to see your new benchmark Paul. It's almost identical to my rig with a slight overclock. And that corresponds to the 5600 being a little faster than the TI4200 as well,  we both have more CPU power than Graphics power.

I wouldn't score well in the 2003 benchmark because the TI4200 would score 0 in the DX9 tests. (the dx9 tests wont run at all on a dx8 card).

I managed to install the new Cat drivers and redid the benchmark this time with 2x AA and 2xAF. This time I got a better score:


3D Mark03 score: 5111

Settings:
Driver 4.1 Catalyst
2x Antialiasing
2x Antrioscopic Filtering




The proof of the pudding will be in the eating but I can't get off the ground with the keyboard! Need to get a new joystick!

Yo Swanny,
My highest so far was 2660.  My specs below.

a) How on earth can you score 6050 with those specs?
b) How do you add a JPG as you've done?
