[PhatboyHD]

Hey Tom I Have A question, I have my I7 980 (not the X)at 4.0Ghz 200/20,,@ 1.256 volts I have a Asus Rampage 3 MB, 12 Gigs Of GSkill Sniper @1611 Mhz, 3x 4 Gig sticks , 2 EVGA GTX 470sc in SLI, @ 725,Mhz Core clock. Ok Now Here is the Problem , My 3D mark 11 Scores are awesome 10,000, Heaven Benchmark 111.6 FPS, it does awesomely , But Vantage is the Problem my overall score is 33,976 , my GPU score is 33,089... My CPU score is only 36,945 !!! Hell my Q6600 got 44,000 CPU score WHat gives? My Sandra PROC arithmatic score is 158.46 GOPS,, your CPU score when testing the MARS 2 cpu wasd 67,000 with a I7 950... why is my CPU score in vantage so low? i have run it a dozen times always the same result. this is the only test it doesnt Rock on .. The only thing i noticed is that during the Physics test It doesnt use the GPU's at all which with my I7 950 And My Q6600 it always did my Nvidia settings are the same havent changed them..am i doing somthing wrong here?

your I7 950 dbl'd my score...any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated... Oh my O.S. is win 7 64bit... this has me realy Puzzled,,,

If your Q6600 is getting higher than your 980 that means you had physX enabled while benching. Physx greatly increases CPU score in vantage.

But a fair/accurate bench test means you disable PhysX. as AMD cards do not have it.
