3DMark06 Score...

[Arge]

I have had the setup in my sig for just over a year now but have never really bothered with 3dmark. Since the new 8800gts 512 last month i have used 3dmark06 a few times and 11144 is about the best i can get.

Just wondered if this seems a good score for this set up or should i be getting more ? have seen people getting 15k+ with single 8800gts 512 cards, i assume this is overclocked ? maybe i should overclock mine, any good overclocking guides ?

Any input welcome

Cheers for the fast reply,

with regards to the processor, I clocked the e6300 to 2.8ghz origonally to bring the Fsb up to run at the default memory speed (400mhz) at 1:1. this seemed logical, and easy with very little Vcore increase. Also, temperatures were better than stock timings with my freezer 7 pro onboard ! But going past this would mean i would have to either overclock the RAM or use a different RAM to FSB ratio yes ?

Any info on how far THESE giel 6400 sticks will go ? Or am i better off changing the ratio ?

Also, will my freezer 7 pro be adequate cooling at 3.2ghz ? dont want to have to run the fan 100% 24/7 !!

with regards to overclocking the gfx card, that was next on my 'things to do' list

By how much ?

willhub, when you say 850mhz at current and have been to 1000mhz i take it you mean effective clocks ? so your currently 425mhz fsb ?

also do you have any ram cooling if you are using 1.9v or is it not needed ?

anyone got any advice on wether the temps will be ok with a freezer 7 pro at 3.2ghz ?
I have a stacker 830 with plenty of 120mm fans so case temps should be pretty low.
