I think there is a problem with my score. Take a look:



I should score a lot higher than that. Also after I ran 3dmakr06, little dots were filling the screen up. You can see them in that picture. Since I restarted it, they have not been back yet.

That score is low...I can pull just over 8,000 with my daughters 4 year old Dell XPS 400.

Intel Pentium D 940 with two cores 3.20 GHz CPU
Nvidia 7900GT
Dell 375w PSU
2 GB DDR2 667MHz
 
Yeah, tell me about it. I think the reason it is low is because of the display driver error I keep receiving while playing Crysis or 3dmark06. I can not figure out what is causing this error.

Memory, google this: The infamous nvlddmkm.sys "Display driver stopped responding" error?

You might find the solution...good luck and I hope you fix this, I'm sure it's frustrating!
 
Yes I have googled the problem. Really there is no real solution. What has worked for some does not work for others. Alot of them say it has to do with an unstable system.

you may have a junk video card there. I would test it in another computer before I pulled my hair out trying to figure out what was wrong with your computer. Those artifacts are common when overclocking but could also be caused by a failing card. Worth looking into anyway.

That's about as hard as I care to push it.
 
awww, I thought there were some free points out there I was missing out on.

I did change things around a bit recently, re-flashed bios, found and disabled the C1E and EIST functions, new ATI driver, and lower clocks all around to fix some temperature stability issues.

My score is now at 16701 from 16820

CPU at 3501 from 3582
GPU at 826 and 1078 from 845 and 1125

Prime95 for 10.5 hours stable and ATItool shows no artifacts using the latest version now!

I'm satisfied.
 
eh, the benchmarking is fun to see where you stand but if you don't use those settings for anything else then what's the point? I'm very happy with my score and it feels great to do so well on my first build/OC especially knowing that my system is as stable as any oem package :good:

don't get me wrong though, I am pretty jealous of your score :D

That's a nice score mate. Those 4850s do well in 3DMark, considering your CPU clock speed.



lol. That's 3.4 :)

yeh lol i know its 3.4 but i just put it down as it was....

im impressed, havnt finnished overclocking yet

ill get my cpu back up to 3.6ghz then al crank the gpu's up and see what it can do

Dammit, you beat me by like 200 points! lol

That's it! I'm flashing my BIOS and going for 3.6Ghz again!
