Asus a8n sli premium
1gb geil value ram
leadtech winfast pc6800 TDH (graphics card)
Hiper 580W type R modular PSU
Maxtor 120 gb HDD

my 3d mark 03 score is 11260
Is this a good score for my spec? how could it be increased? Also my computer freezees up in games sometimes mostly CS:S what could be the problem?

Do a 3dMark 06 score and THEN i'll be able to tell you how it stacks up with what you should be getting

Foehammer2003 · 6 Jun 2006 at 01:44

how is it then i only get 7738 marks in '03?

collisster · 6 Jun 2006 at 17:25

I got coolbits then detected optimal settings and toned it down. mayb thats why, cuz my GPU and GM is overclocked

the GPU hits 60 degrees after an hour of source

@OP your 03 score is fine but 60c isnt that warm so it will mor elikely be your memory or something wrong with the game if that is the only one that crashes.

'Cos you have an x1600, they arent very good.

collisster · 6 Jun 2006 at 17:40

lol are the 1600s newer that the 6800?
I'm d/ling 3D mark 06.

Raikiri · 6 Jun 2006 at 17:42

Yeah they are newer.

In 06 expect something like 1800-2000

collisster · 6 Jun 2006 at 17:43

ah well. I have geil value ram (1Gb) its only 6 months old, how could it have bit the dust so early? is there a warranty on it?

Raikiri · 6 Jun 2006 at 17:45

May have done, run memtest to check it. I velive they have a lifetime warranty so that wont be a problem.

collisster · 6 Jun 2006 at 17:48

do I put it back in the box and go back to overclockers with my receipt? Do I have to have a replacement or can I put it towards some mushkin? (is mushkin anygood, (it looks nice

))

Have you memtested it for 12 hours? You cant just take it back saying 'I think its broken give me some mushkin memory please.'

lol yeah i know, but the XT is supposed to be better than the 6800, but with the sm3.0 support would that be why i get 2107 in '06?

collisster · 6 Jun 2006 at 19:33

I havent memtested it, I doubt they will give me mushkin for geil value ram
IS MUSHKIN GOOD? please answer that nobody does lol

Mikey1280 · 6 Jun 2006 at 19:38

Mushkin is generally quite good but I havent used it myself. You will need to memtest for 12hrs probably before they will believe that it is faulty, and you cannot do a straight swap for mushkin ram unless it is the same price.

Oh and your sigs too big

Brizzles · 6 Jun 2006 at 20:01

I noticed your post last night and see you have changed your sig to " Leadtek.......Overclocked"

thats the detect optimal frequencies
its a BIG increase form the stock. should I leave it like that?
edit:i saved it as a gif sorry for loss of colour

Are you still running at these settings ?

That GPU clock is a huge jump from 325.

I wait to see your 3d Mark '06 score , Good Luck.

Cheers,

Mark

collisster · 6 Jun 2006 at 20:49

yeh its overclocked (well from the default) I didn't feel comfortable running it at such high settings, even you guys were unsure of it so I toned it down a bit and its ok now. I'm going to get a new cooler then overclock again, new mushkin ram probs, and see what my score is then.

Brizzles · 6 Jun 2006 at 20:53

My stock 6800gt / 3700+ Clawhammer (754) / 1g OCZ Gold

Scores 2300 approx.

2600 doesn't look " Cruddy " from here , I'd be very happy with that.

What temps are you getting with that O/C ?

Cheers,

Mark

collisster · 6 Jun 2006 at 20:59

with tha overclock just as quick as I can after playing source at full detail I get the temp thing up its about 58 is there any program I can have my graphics temps shown in game?
