I know its an old chip ( well a dinosaur ) , but funds are limited and all my parts are 2nd hand/flea bay or MM.

Spec;

Socket 754 AMD 3700+ Claw ( 2.4Ghz sock )
DFI nf3 250gb
Patriot 2Gb 2.5-3-3-6
Gainward 7800GS+ ( 512mb/24 pipe ) AGP

All at Stock (i.e 200 fsb - Mem 1/1 ) for the testing ( 3 runs of 3D Mark '06 ) :

Average Score ;

Total - 3562
CPU - 872

Half Life Lost Coast Stress Test average 75-80fps ( on max )


But it seems woefully low compared to others .

( Even though i did reach #10 :D in Orb for "similar" systems when pushed a bit )

Any Comments ?
