3d Mark 06 scores thread

Right yeah sorry im half asleep so im not really thinking.

Yeah i just overclocked mine some more, as in sig now, went from 600/1800 to 625/2000, 06 score went from 10288 to 10682, a nice 40ish pts up for a little oc

When in the control panel for clocking the graphics card the first bar is set to 600 on mine and the lower bar set to 1Ghz. Is the lower bar supposed to be doubled when quoting my running spec i.e 600/2000 - that makes more sense to me.

Sorry mate, I meant the graphics cards RAM. Mines 600/1000 but I've seen some at 650+/1500+. Happy with 10.5K but when you get there you always wonder if it will go that little bit further.

You sure about that 1500 figure? Think you'll find that's the DDR rate ie actual 750 as I've never seen anyone get anywhere near 1500(3000) on a GTS or GTX. Check combat squirrel's database. Think 650/1000 is about as far as you're gonna get.

Well at 3.1ghz on my 6300 my ram timings are at 5-5-5-15.. any lower and my pc doesnt stay on :S

Also if my ram goes above 1000mhz it again fails to stay on, had to reset CMOS before..

my ram is PC5300 btw, if anyone wishes to know, at stock the timings can be 3-3-3-12, but with such an OC i have to stretch a bit

i have the same ram and at 4,4,4,12 you can go over 1000mhz no problem
 
Probably a noob question...but how do you get to see results without uploading them first? Like in the pic above..i always seem to have to upload first before i can see the scores

3DMark Score 5511 3DMarks

SM 2.0 Score 2008 Marks

SM 3.0 Score 2234 Marks

CPU Score 2836 Marks

3d6 = 6751 with the gear in my sig which seems strange to me. As you have the slightly better chip. Maybe the xt rather pro gfx is the reason?

As a general question, how much of a difference would a gts 320 make to me? I assume I'd get scores around the 9-10k in 3d6, but is that something that is noticeable in games? Also, would it be wasted on my 1280x1024 19" tft?

Cheers

Scored 8061 with the core@550 mem@845. Didn't want to take it much further as I've only recently got the card so i'm still checking it out. One thing tho'. Games such as F.E.A.R. and Supreme Commander play great even with graphic options maxed out but Far Cry and Halo 1 hate it... I'm assuming its a driver issue and will be sorted eventually, does anyone else have the same probs? My rig has been through the mill with Prime95 and Memtest so I know thats cool. My temps are fine, drivers are 158.22 with the latest (April) Dx update. Any advise much appreciated
 
Sorry to be a bit of a n00b, and sorry if ive missed this answer already

Just built my first PROPER gaming rig and have got 3dmark06 to have a go with

When you guys run the benchmark do you leave all of the settings within 3dmark at DEFAULT?

Id like to submit my results when i have them but not sure on how youve made the test consistent
