Is this good?

[TonCrafter]

Hey guys. Just got home and ran a quick 3dMark05 test on my new Alienware. I'm really new to benchmarking and what not, so I apologize for any stupid questions. Anyways, here's what I got.

My res is set to 1600-1200.

Score= 5,553

So, is that a good score.

My core specs are as follows.

FX-55 Processor
6800 Ultra
1gig of Corsair XMS Ram

Anyone? I really need some input here. Thanks all.

I really have no clue about benchmarking right now but i THINK that that is a good enough score. With your specs it better be good enough.

1600x1200?

no one benches with that, so i don't have a clue

1600x1200?

no one benches with that, so i don't have a clue

Ok, so what res should I bench on to get a good idea?

1280 by 1024 is more common

Ok, I ran 1280-1024 and got a score of 5,551 3dmark. Pretty Good?

I would say thats a good score. But find some one with a 6800gt and ask them. I scored 2657 with a 9800pro. Where those default settings or what?

Your monitor res may be 1280x1024 or 1600x1200 but 3dmark05 doesn't bench at that. The demo version ( which is what everyone here has) defaults at 1024x768, so that's technically what you're benching at.

Honestly considering the CPU I figured you'd get higher.

I just benched my 6800GT with Ultra speeds...well just a TINY bit better lol at a insane 401/1101 lol.....a whole 1MHz on each

Anyway I got 5,410 and I'm on a 2.6GHz Athlon XP-M and 1gb of 2-2-2-5 timing RAM.

Your card is perfoming right on though....I assume that extra 100 points is coming from your processor, but yeah......it's definitely performing exactly where it should, soooooooo now OC that beast
