All right, I'm still going back to using Nvidia video cards. They are just too good to give up on. I went to their website and downloaded nTune, computer froze while running the program. That, I will never get again. Uninstall.
I got a miserable 3308 on the 3dmark05. Now I'm thinking something's wrong. WIth my specs, I should be getting around 5000. I need to double check the BIOS to see if I'm running optimal settings.
Dont worry, if everythign is stock speeds on ur system that score is normal. I got the same thing. Only when i maxed out my 6600gt to optimum settings did i get over 4000 score. I guess if i were to OC my processor to it would push me closer to 5k, i doubt that 5k is attainable though.
im pretty sure the answer is no. but are there any pipes to unlock with a 6600gt? and whats the highest this card could go with a normal amd gamer setup using stock gpu cooling? (3dmark03) i've seen 9000 but thats it. it should be too hard to reach 10,000
