Okay - I am on the lookout for a new graffix card.

My 3DMark05 Score came in at 365 (Three hundered and Sixty Five) - Absolute
Crud !

Most games run pretty well on my system which is a Pentium 4 2.53Ghz with
1GB RAM and a Geforced FX 5500. So you imagine what benefit i I would get
out of a much higher rated graffix card...

I was actually amazed that my card score was so low... which got me
thinking... What cards and system scores exist out there...

What Card and System do you have and what score do you get???

If somebody scores 5000 for example - does that mean thier card is 13.69
times better/faster than mine? How does 3DMark05 score it's scores?

You can use the Online Result Browser to check how your machine compares to
others with similar or different specs. That 365 seems awfully low, though.

You reposted my compare link...

yes..so as to have another system side by side to compare too...for his
reference not mine...is easier than flipping back and forth between two
links. Didn't realize it was a problem..was just trying to make it all easy.

my mistake...on mine it showed both..but i needed to purge my Internet
Explorer cache to see what you meant..didn't realize it till I seen the end
refernce numbers matched.

Hi i also have an nf4 board and my question concern the T1 timing of
your memory. Me on my board it set at timing 2T and it say something
about the difference of 1t and 2t in the bios, actually i can't recall
what it is but i think it something about what kind of mem you use.

Could you tell me what's up whit that has your showing us that spec???
