wow?

Yeah latest ones, and now even got the beta ones. IDK I'll run it again, trying to write a research paper lol but I get so sidetracked.

Is that the new 8800GTS or the older one? Thats not very good for your system I can pull like 11,100-11,200 in Vista with Aero Enabled.

do you get more points with areo disabled

 

[A True Folder]

Aero should auto disable when running 3d intensive programmes.

@ OP, it is probably background services and programmes in Vista hogging your bandwidth, also have you changed setting in nvidia control panel from Quality to Performance?

Most old hands at 3DMark kill all background processes and change that setting, that is why some identical systems perform differently.

 

[Bobert93]

so i should change it to performance in a benchmark

 

[A True Folder]

yes, that will get you a better score.

Can you wring a little more out of the gpu core?? My last run (13,958) was at 3.6GHz but the gpu was 680/950 and mines only the old GTS. Have you tried getting the core a little higher? nevermind the memory for now.

 

[Bobert93]

no and i dont want to, its allready the overclocked version and last time i did that i screwed up my 7600 now its worthless so i dont really want to touch that again. maby now i can beat worship me HAHAHA

 

[Bobert93]

HAHAHA!!!! I ran benchmark earlier today and got 12656 or somthing now that i went into performance mode i got 13877 hehehe im happy now.

EDIT: WOOOT I raised the RAM from 760 to 850 mhz and I GOT ,14001 HAHAHA i got 14001 the first time i ran it with no overcloking i got 10,500 . what an improvement.

onya

top score that, still, instead of raising the memory go back to the lower memory settings and try and lift the core, no big jumps, just easy as she goes.

EDIT: Which driver are you using??

This means WAR! I'm gonna OC the shit out of my rig then test it out.

EDIT: I'm up to 3.3GHz and an 840MHz memory clock. GPU at 700/1025. Performance enabled. Brace yourself Cryman... http://service.futuremark.com/orb/resultanalyzer.jsp?projectType=14&XLID=0&UID=13356518
Worship me.

its on, going back to the bios now
