3dmark question

[taintedplay]

isnt your 3dmark score a sum of the sm2.0 score, hdr/sm3.0 score, and cpu score? if so, how is this right?

i think i should have gotten 16278 if you add up the three. but i got 13604. Whats the deal?

 

[Nagasama]

its not summed up, its a percentage of all 3 scores. i dont know the percentages.

bring that quad up to 3.8. Scores start to take off once you open it up. Or go for the gusto and do a 4ghz run

16,278 would be an impressive score for a q6600 and an 8800 gt. I got 15,736... speaking of which, I never tried again when I w/c'd my q6600... **** I probably could of pumped out 16k with a few more mhz out of the cpu.... Oh well.

i just got 17K with my 9450 @ 3.5 and a 280gtx.

 

[thirdshiftdj]

you have a 280gtx now?

 

[Nagasama]

nah im just "testing it for artifacts" while i wait for the replacement 9550 and new p5q deluxe that i RMA'd/traded out for. heh. its pretty awesome.

lol so much for just a simple switch to intel huh? You've gone through a few chips now

no ****...if i could convince myself to sell this cool little 9450, i'd have my fourth in 2 months
