Powerful System, Low Benchmark?

[the_person]

TRDCorrola, if yur using 3DMark05 yur machine is still extremely powerful, i just downloaded and ran 3DMark03 and got 11661 3DMarks :O; im sure yours will be around 8 or 9000

you should still be getting higher. there something wrong there. the x850xt pe gets 15,000 around in 3dmark03, i cant see the "PE" part making it get 4000 more points...

Holy....your numbers are staggering. Let me check the specs on your PC...

The only thing that is different from mine is you have more RAM and a different video card. But that's a huge increase to what i have for a 3dmar03 score (8175) compared to yours (11661).

It looks like you may have the better video card.

 

[mighty_chick]

yea and his should stil be higher. dont forget he has one of the best ati cards out, if u had an ati card you'd be using a x800 or something one step down from the top.

 

[TRDCorolla1]

Yeah, I was just checking that out. I went to the ATi's site and looked up his specs. Impressive. I guess I have nothing to worry about.

 

[mighty_chick]

nope, 8000-8500 is typical for a single non o/c 6600gt. im getting 7682 lol.

The ATi Radeon X850XT:

256MB GDDR3, 256-Bit
Chipset/Core Speed: ATI Radeon X850 XT/520MHz
Memory/Effective Speed: 256MB GDDR3/1080MHz
BUS: PCI-Express x16
Max Resolution@32bit Color: 2048X1536@85Hz

Nice core and memory speeds. I can see how it's better than a 6600GT.

GeForce 6600GT

128MB DDR3, 128-Bit
Chipset/Core Speed: nVIDIA GeForce 6600GT/500MHz
Memory/Effective Speed: 128MB DDR3/1000MHz
BUS: PCI-Express x16
Max Resolution@32bit Color: 2048X1536@85Hz
RAMDACs: 400MHz

Pretty good considering I payed around $190 for my video card.

WTFreak? Even my 6800 NU scores a 12,010 on 3DMark03...

You can overclock most 6600 GT's like crazy though, and get a better core, and memory speed.

in Nividia cards, what is the card thats as good as the X850XT? is it the 6800 something or other?

mine is too old to benchmark put as you can see i am building my own computer. What do you think about my specs, In my sig
