3DMark 2006 Scores: Show It Off!

[Hatman]

For xmas im hoping to get water cooling. Was kinda hoping there would be some info available on whether 7950gx2 quad sli is going to work on vista 64, since apparantly a 4way AFR was going to be invetned on Vista to make the quads work loads better, I think ill get water cooling for my current rig instead though, its pretty loud. Ill replace my current fans with low RPM quite fans.

It'll be good beacuse it means some serious overclocking!

just post what you think you will need and we will all help you out every step of the way

Well mate, your cpu is probably holding you back - I think I got a couple of thousand points from overclocking (cpu - also gfx/ram oc'd)...

I take it you have the latest drivers?

Hi .. i've just upgraded my mobo and cpu following your advise here .. problem is i think my 3dmark score is still a bit low compared to my hardware it's now (10013) .. please advise if this is a low score ,i'm running windows vista ultimate 32bit with this specs at stock clock..

intel Q6600 (2.4 quad-core)

XFX GeForce 8800GTX (forceware 163.69)

XFX 680i SLI LT mobo

2GB of bus 667 ram

hec 650w psu

lots of hard discs but all of them is WD 7200 rpm

Sound on board

sorry about my english coz i'm not a native speaker of english

Friend just did 3dmark on his new rig. on XP

Q6600

ASUS P5K-E Wifi

2gb Patriot

500GB Seagate

XFX 8800GTS 640mb Extreme Edition

OCZ 700watt PSU

he just ran it all at stock, except GPU and got 10105

sm2 is 4035

sm3 is 4136

cpu is 3812

he just did it again with his quad at 3ghz, on stock volts! (gotta love that SLACR)

10546

cpu 4725

sm2 4077

sm3 4203

i think his scores at 3ghz should have gone a little higher

 

[Whacked]

My rig is:

E6600 @ 3.6ghz

4GB PNY XLR8 DDR2/800

2x PNY 8800GTX @621mhz core, 1000 mem SLI

I think your CPU lets your score down a bit there mate, might be worth getting a quad core, new ones come out soon.

For all that GPU power quad core must be tempting

ya the cpu bottleneck is killing me, but I have a Q6600 G0 and all my liquid cooling parts on the way

 

[Hatman]

Hope I can get quad to about 3.6..

will be v. interesting to see how 8800GT performs in 3dmark06, it might be used to get the new high record in SLI ya never know.

 

[Whacked]

you should be able to get to 3.6 on that SLACR easy.

I hit 12k score with 3d mark 2006 I cant remember the exact number thought. I have a Q6600 and a geforce 8800 OC to 3ghz GTS overclocked even more by me

 

[Hatman]

Well I'm ordering the Zotac 8800gt AMP! edition which is 700/2000/1700 for core/mem/shader and from what Ive seen with a 3ghz quad it gets close to 13k in 3dmark06, so will be cool to see what I get with it.

 

[bobletman]

That is a really nice graphics card your getting you should be hitting 13k no problem.

 

[FragTek]

Nice scores yall are tackin' up, keep up the good benchin' work and keep the scores comin'!

 

[bobletman]

LOL i would overclock more so I would get higher then 12k but I dont like changing voltages and getting the temp to high.

I'll sort the Hwbot out another time.. Also i'll drain some more out of the system at some point.. That was just crank it up and fire out a score.

 

[Bungral]

Ok last one before bed...

http://service.futuremark.com/orb/resultanalyzer.jsp?projectType=14&XLID=0&UID=11880189

I still think I could get higher but i'm happy with that... Seems my target is 13k.

It spanks my old 320mb GTS all over the place though

 

[Hatman]

lol imagine what quad could do to that score

14 - 15k probably. Quads can reach 5k+ points quite easily.

cough

with only one stick of turd ram!

 

[goldenchessboard]

i was at a friends house and he ran it.. got around 13000 after he overclocked.

i was reading the charts, it can go up to 28000 or something? =S

I can see a new potential 3dmark06 record being set.

Potentially.
