Well I've loaded up Hawx, COD 5, Fear 2, Company of Heroes, and Sniper.


I'm running everything at max settings with no issues, sooo my benchmarks may suck, but my games look crystal clear.

Wish I could figure out the benchmark thing I'd like to see this thing perform at its best but I can live with the fact everything runs perfectly smooth with no issues on high settings.

 

Your benchmarks are right in line with your setup 13K, maybe 14K max on a stock system. I have a 720 and have benched it extensively. If your looking to raise your score, minimizing the amount of uneccessary processes and services would help since they eat cpu cycles in the background, and 3DMark06 is CPU dependant, that makes a differances. A system with 25-30 processes running will score higher than a system with 50+ processes. Vantage is a better benchmark at the moment since the GPU score isn't CPU depenant nearly as much.

 

I get the same scores as you College. But my games run excellent and I have gotten Black Ops to run at full settings with the equivelent of 48x AA. With the use of Morphlogical AA and Temporal AA.

 

Well, then, you're one of the few. Black Ops is not fully using my hardware. Running 45-50fps, and my GPU/CPU barely get warm.

 

damn you all...I want black ops...I ordered it, it was shipped on release date but begin in afghan may not be here till next week, along with my mouse, keyboard, head set....I dont like gaming on the keyboard just doesn't feel right I like sitting the monitor a little back.
