Are those really that bad?

Definitely not bad at all....but something is wrong...your puter should be faster!

 

[Lord AnthraX]

Those times are fine.


A 2.5 GHz AMD gets 35 seconds in super PI.

2.9 GHz will get you 29 30 ish seconds.

...my 3200 at 2.2 got 33 sec

You should be able to dip into the 28's - 29's with that setup.

 

[noxarcana]

Any idea what could be wrong than? thats with the 1M

 

[gurusan]

What are your BIOS settings? Maybe your ram timings or memory dividers are screwed with

 

[noxarcana]

everything is set to default settings in bios

 

[gurusan]

...well....superpi isn't the only determining benchmark...

How about a 3dmark05 score?

i ran one before, but i do not remember the result. Let me get it again and tell you the scores, but might take a while
