E6600 Try #2

[BongWizard]

i dunno about even getting stable for 3dmark... usually when i fail IBT, i cant get 3dmark to run properly either... sometimes i can get it all the way through, but it gives me a whack CPU score (like 1000points at 3.85GHz)... try 3.5 dude... just push every MHz out of it you possibly can

I can get it to go through 3dmark and not pass IBT. I do it all the time. I just don't keep it there for long.

my 3DMark Score = 12347

 

[zmatt]

12k is a respectable score. Whats your full system specs?

The Video card i have is a Geforce 8800 GTX and i also have a Sound Blaster X-FI XtremeGamer sound Card.. along with the stuff already mentioned running on Windows XP

 

[BongWizard]

thats a decent score for that setup... have you OCed your GPU much/at all?

You should be able to get up to 625/1000 on stock cooling. GPU OCs help 3dmark a lot. So don't be afraid to crank it up!

With my cpu at 4ghz, the difference between the max non volt modded oc and stock on my video card was 1000 points in the final score.
