Haven't ran it in awhile but I think my rigs under performing so I wanna know where you think my score should be. Last time I ran it the score was 21,700 something. I've been curious as to why there is no gpu score also. rig in sig. Also I tested on the free one where you can't change any settings.

I see your showing your I7 at 3.33 GHz in your sig. Is that stock clock or are you slightly overclocked? Either way 21,700 at, (or near), stock clocks seems about right for a 295 with a fast processor, though I'm no expert on the new Intel chips. When you consider that you should be able to increase that score somewhere around 20-25% with some serious OCing you might make the top 5, or even the top three with a single GPU. That would be impressive.

the i7 960 stock is 3.2ghz but windows a shows it actually runs at 3.33ghz, and cpuz also shows about 3.33ghz so I just say 3.33. Only thing overclocked is the gpu. Hope people dont think im trying to brag i just wanna see if im in the right ball park.
 
Why don't you wind it up to 4.2 or so and post the score up in the 3DMark thread. Shouldn't be too tough considering you're starting at 3.2. Have you OCed it yet? Whats the MB and cooler you're running?

Nah I don't need bragging rights, nor do I know how to oc my cpu, already overkill. havent overclocked anything besides the gpu. Not sure what my cpu fan is I didn't keep the box. It's a nice one though. and mb of what? Also this thread isn't a competition its to see if my system is running under performing or not.

Gigabyte EX58-UD3R, I guess its suppose to be really overclock friendly but I no nothing about ocing, only reason i oced my gpu is because all i had to do was move 3 sliders and test it over and over, nice and simple. I'll make a seperate thread and try to oc.

Speaking of overkill,just wondering if you do realize the 960 is nothing more than a 920 running a little bit faster at stock speed? Both will overclock nearly identically, and the 920 can easily overclock to the speeds of a 960.

Yeah the 960 is a overpriced 920, since I dont know how to overclock I got the 960.
