weird I reached 7k with x1900 series. How did you get 4k?

1. You have the X1900XTX, I have a X1900 All in Wonder @ 500/470
2. You have a Core 2 Duo E6600, I have a Pentium D 820

but honestly.. I would have excpected a bit more of the Geforce 8 series.. I mean, when I compare it to what i have, yea, its an improvement, but not that big tough (and then considering my cards are what, 2 years old now? )
nevertheless, its nice

of course, its not even the gtx... its the lower gts though its still very powerful.

yea.. but the 7800 series is 2 generations older that the 8800 ( the 7900/7950 came in between, and yes, i do consider them to be a own generation because of having a different arcitecture)

also, an slightly overclocked 7950GX2 could reach the same score as that iirc


edit:.. but yes... Strength in numbers ftw. ^_^

well, actually the 7800 and 7900 series are the same architecure (hence the same pixel pipeline and vertex shader count)... the difference is between clock rate because of the switch from 130nm (or was it 110nm?) to 90nm... letting nvidia raise core clock a bunch.

imagine 8800gtx quad SLI lol
can you say 25k in 3dmark06? insane. lol
then again, you never know with bottlenecks lol

yea... but going from 130nm (i think it was 130.. ) to 90nm makes quite a new chip imo.. call it the 7800MkII if you want

but like I said, I did excpect a bit more.. meaning it's my oppinion, nobody has to (and appearantly does) agree with me on that

Its a nice score,.. but I would have expected 12k or so tbh
