[markOpolis]

Hello everyone,


2020 game score under 3dMark 2003 (build 330 - default settings).

Is it good/average/bad???...

What is yours? (Radeon 9500pro users)

Thanx in advance for your answers.

With your cpu that's not that good. I get 3581 with an Athlon XP 2000+ and
512M DDR mem.

your score seems not to be too good...

I get 4457 pts at 3DMark2003 330 with this system

P4 1.6 @ 2.560, FSB 160, vcore 1.7
Asus P4B533-E, 768 MB RAM Samsung PC 3200, mem ratio 1:1,
watercooled by Magnum Mg 478, Temp idle 31°C, Temp full load 44°C,
Hercules 3D Prophet 9500 pro 128 MB RAM 270/276 @ 371/310
stock cooling,
Catalyst 3.4, all settings to "high performance",
OS Win XP home SP1

System is rock solid and really quiet...
I love it ;-)

Like the rest, CPU test seems very low :-( ... Is there a known bug between

I'd agree, your scores look a little on the lean side

I get 5,735 marks IN 3DMk03 - and 17,378 marks in 3DMk01, with this system

Epox 8RDA3+ (224 FSB - 2.0v)
XP1800 DLT3C (10.0 - 2240 MHz = XP3200+ stable - 1.75v)
2 x OCZ 256MB PC3700 (448 - 7-3-3 / 2.0 dual - 2.9v)
Gigabyte Radeon 9700 Pro (373/353 - 1.5v)
Air - 45/64C

Your scores (CPU and video) are definitely low. Running the default
fail-safe settings on your BIOS most likely has something to do with it.
Check out Omegadrive's website and try his performance BIOS settings.
Default fail-safe mode is probably running your FSB at the slowest possible
setting and your memory timing at the most conservative. With your memory,
FSB should be 200 and for memory timings try 2.5,3,3,7. Here's a review on
your memory that should give you some ideas:
http://www.vr-zone.com/reviews/TwinMOS/PC3700-3200/page4.htm

For reference, I'm getting a CPU score of 760 with an overclocked 2.8 and
650 stock. With your setup, you should be scoring over 500 CPU with stock
settings.

Thanx Frank.

Default fail safe settings in BIOS are:
- FSB = 200MHz
- Bus speed = 800MHz
- Core speed = 2400MHz
- DDR400 = 2.5/3/3/8/7.8us SSTL2.5 dual channel
- HyperThreading = enabled


I ran SiSoft Sandra Pro MAX3! benchmarks, and my results are regular, in the
range where they should be! An Intel PentiumIV 2.4C (FSB800) on i875P must
perform something like a XP2800+ and between PIV 2.6B and 2.8B. There I am!

The only test missing the target is memory benchmark, where my Winbond BH-5
(supposed to be better than TwinMos CH-5), is slightly underscoring. But
nothing as serious as the LAME 3dMark'03 scores I get :-(

Something's wrong with FutureMark and HyperThreading? or a defective
videocard...
