help with low 3dmark score on ti4200

[deankenny]

i see ppl with the ti4200 with the exact specs as my pc and card even some with only 64mb are getting around 14,000 3dmarks on 2001se, and i can get a maximum of 10,500 with full overclocking, am i missing something or just luck of the draw?

3dmark 05 and 06 mainly measure graphics card performance. 3dmark 01, on the other hand, provides a good measure of your entire system's performance. It is a good chance the higher scores were caused by better processor/ram/etc.

 

[deankenny]

yes of course that is the most obvious case, but i clicked on exact specs so it was my exact processor speed and make and also amount of ram

background apps taking up speed?

 

[deankenny]

nope just done a fresh format and xp install

Do you have a sound card or integrated? Whats your PSU?

i would consider yourself lucky you get 10K in '01. With my old Sempron 2800+, 1GB DDR400, 9600XT 256MB, i got 12K in '01 stock.
