i said a few weeks back we should still keep the 3d mark 06 thread going but create a separate new post for Vantage scores.

i cant be bothered with doing a vantage test,us members with affordable rigs wont pull much marks in vantage anyway.

Yeah, right now my old Toshiba laptop would crash on Vantage.

even still though, jut because some people have 'lesser' rigs doesn't mean we shouldn't run it.

I guess we could run a 2001 thread too...than everyone would be winners.

I think it is. I was going to bump it to 3.2 and raise the clocks on my card. But I got over 12000, what the hell. Not bad for it.

Done alittle better this time. Same clocks.

Calibretto,how does your system manage to pull 15K? your system is basicly the same as mine exept you have 9800GT which is a 8800GT and icant manage to pull 13k?
or is there a major problem with my system?

Hey guys, is there anyway I can up my score? My temps on the GPU are 80 *C under heavy load, and cpu temps are 51 *C under heavy load. They are both OCed already. Any way I can get higher score, other than the obvious of buying new stuff?

Craig's SM3.0 score is higher than yours for some reason, try OC'ing your GT a little. ;)

it just doesnt make sense though i mean if you compare the 8800GT - 9800GT on GPU review they are the same!

and even if i was to overclock my GT,i still wont be able to pull those marks :eek:

Scores have been updated.

Mac, I didn't add your score because I couldn't see what resolution the benchmark was run at, and it seems a bit high for an 8800GT so I'd just like to see the settings.

oh poo i forgot that, i did run it at default settings, ill run it again

Who is to say people don't come here to brag in the first place, this thread is kind of about bragging. Not that I have anything against it, and I put my system up against everyone else's. I just don't want do discourage people from having to have the top of the line hardware to play COD4, or whatever.

3Dmark06 is old and out dated and it barely reflects what most modern hardware rigs can run. If it were to utilize all four cores of my processor along with its 12MB of Cache, and actually thread out instruction sets to it with out falter, I could see my rig out performing all dual core machines.

So, don't feel like you need to upgrade because 3Dmark won't boost your 12k score to a 14k score. You can still play video games.

As for the enthusiast that likes to over clock and tweak and push it to the limit (queue 80s song), then go for it. I could care less and yes, that is what this thread is about. Posting your scores and improving them.

Although it kills me to say this, I agree with you.

While it isn't the most recent version, 3DMark Vantage is horrible as it can only be run once, and it has different scores based on if you run it in different modes.

i dont like Vantage at all,you need a super expensive system to get a decent score from it.

lol i have a hard time believing that they got 34k out of one graphics card/dual core, probably set with an i7 965, and a pair of 4870x2's

My old 5000+/2900gt setup. All stock, no overclocking :D. I think I hit like 11k with overclocking :p
