Benchmarks for my new 8800GT

[Merkwürdigeliebe]

not a bad score.. my 2900pro and 2.8 ghz fx-62 only scored roughly 10300 or something of the sort... was your 8800gt overclocked?

Factory OC'd

maxed out is everything on very high.... You don't wanna confuse people.

Maxed out in XP is different from maxxed out in vista, i was able to play the crysis demo "maxed out" in xp at 1920x1200 with a single gt, havent tried the sli setup yet. I'll be picking up vista home premium 64 tommorow.

well... you should change the cvar files and play on ultra high under xp

 

[veedubfreak]

speaking of crysis, how do you turn on the fps tracker so i can see what fps im getting

download fraps

FRAPS show fps, record video game movies, screen capture software

of course after changing all of that, you still leave it on high mode.. but the settings for high mode were just replaced with the ultra high settings

makes a difference.. water has many more characteristics.. light shows relflections and bends off many more things

you just have to replace your numbers 3's with the number 4 specs.. just copy past the whole first part over the 3rd part as shown... do it with each cvargroup file

 

[veedubfreak]

Cool, all i know is that playing on high the game was still gorgeous.

 

[NosBoost300]

try it on very high, it'll be even more gorgeous.. lol i'll send you the files to replace if you want!! haha everyone must seee!

 

[veedubfreak]

I just went through and manually replaced all the 3's with 4's gonna test it out now. Too bad SLI isnt supported on the demo. Fear my 18000 3dmark06 with sli gt's

 

[NosBoost300]

very niceeee, i must see the results
