3dMark05 Scores (Revised)

You could always try installing different drivers..

What CPU/RAM is in the machine? If it's a 1.67 Core Duo your score is probably about right, but if it's a 2.0 or 2.16 you should be getting 4200+

 

I put my computer specs in my signature.

 

Your 3DMark score sounds about right then..

 

Well, the spire pacific breeze came today. Time to get to those benchmarks >:- D

 

Hehe great mate, you just gotta love that blue light

By the way today my laptop got very hot, it was like 58 C while gaming with cooler... Very weird, I always have 52 degrees max... My HD became 42, while it always was 36-38 C... I guess it is because my room was cooking in the sun

Blue lights rock! I've got blue lights on my desktop over here, blue lights on the USB hub plugged into my lappie and now the fans! ROCK ON!!!

Edit: Got it up an extra 11 points to 3317 on the same clocks in my sig (425/785) and thats after the PC was warm and had been on for like an hour.

 

3336 at 430/795. MUHUWHAHAHA!!! And I'm sure I can push it higher, everythings cool and stable.

 

Hehe Congrats mate those are great scores!

Do you think you can get 3400 out of that beast? That would be so cool.

Charlie-Peru

 

If it wernt 4:30 in the morning, I might see if I can push it for you right now. But It'll have to wait till tomarrow.

 

An even 2000 marks at default clocks. 2180's overclocked @ 501mhz core/807mhz memory. System in sig.

 

*comes in quietly humming waving around a screen shot*



Clocks were 440/800! I KNOW I can hit 3400 now. I tried to see how far I could blow 3400 out of the water and over did my overclock and crashed it. But I know it'll do it!

 

Woah! 9 more points . . 3,400 . . you are almost to the level of the MR X800 - that gets around 3,600-3,900 points. Quite a feat. Excellent job, watch those temperatures.

Your core is higher than even the X700PRO on the desktop - stock clocks for that are 420:432. Impressive.

Yeah, for a moment there, I thought it was a 6800 Go. That's what I got on stock clocks.

 

Temps were nice and cool! It was cold and rainy outside today. CPU was around 43C according to NHC and the GPU was at a guesstmated 85C according to one of those laser turkey thermometers. I dont know if I can trust that thing though, that thermometer was really cheep.

Almost nothing running in the background too. The almost was my logitech mouse software and AVG (Which was doing nothing at the time)

Is there a temp sensor on the x700 in this baby? I'm pretty sure there isnt but I guess I'll ask.

 

There's no temperature sensor on the Clevo M560A I'm afraid. I have tried three different programs, none will report the temperature. We'll just have to guess. I remeber how hot my notebook gets above the GPU without the pad - just as long as it is under that, I think it's fine.

Chaz

 

Meh, thats what I thought. The turkey thermometer will have to do I guess.

 

how much overclock potential will my notebook have?

 

Depends on your cooling solution and how strong your parts are in general.

 

My Compaq v2000z with Turion 64 ML-40, 1GB OCZ PC3200 (CAS 2.5/4/4/8), and 128MB shared x200M got 584 in 3DMark05 after a fresh reinstall on the latest Omegas with all stock clocks. I think the dhzer0point drivers yield a slight increase, so I'll try those tomorrow. I had 604 on stock clocks just before I sent it in for repairs to the defective cooling system (which is when HP mysteriously decided to give me a free upgrade to a processor that doesn't even exist as a build-to-order option on my notebook), but I can't remember what drivers I was using.

 

Come on Twilight we want to see 3400!

Very interesting these X700 sometimes... I once clocked to 372/330 and hit 2605 3dmark05 points... then I clocked to 378/330 and hit 2609... 6 more MHz for 4 points I guess Twilight had the same...
Actually someone should make a graph about what overclock gives you most boost

Charlie-Peru

 

3404!

Hoaah! Congrats mate! 3400 finally for a X700!

I bet if you get a Sonoma 770 with 2 GB DDR you can break 3500 too! By the way mate do you have a 7200 rpm HD?

Charlie-Peru

 

Heh heh, thanks!

No 7200RPM's yet. I was planning on getting the 100GB 7200rpm soon.

 

Dell Inspiron 6400
Intel Core Duo 1.83ghz
1GB RAM
ATi Radeon Mobility x1400 256MB HyperMemory

Stock Clocks: 432/396 (3dmark05 score 1153)
OC: 540/430 (3dmark05 score 2105)

 

Wow that is an incredible overclock that you have done there.... Almost 90 MHz for the core... nice...

The stock for 1153 for X1400 isnt correct I think, it cant be that low.

Charlie-Peru

 

yeh i thought the stock result was way too low...lol...

i tried putting the clocks up to 550/440 but got a bsod part way through running 3dmark05 so i've put them back down to 540/430...i've read that people have gotten up to 575/445 with it staying stable but it seems a rare thing...lol

was able to play BF2 at max detail and max rez (1680x1050) with 25-35fps for about an hour with no problems at all....very happy

 

i hope i get atleast 2200 with my configuration

 

Quick question: Does the amount of memory affect 3DMark05 score? Say if I have two identical systems with all the same hardwares (CPU, video card, hard drive, etc) except one system has 512MB memory while the other has 1GB memory, will the two machines have difference scores on 3DMark05?

Thanks.

 

It will affect it but not too much. 3dmark05 is (almost) only GPU depending. But it can be possible that your CPU or memory is a bottleneck. But it wont affect the score too much.

Charlie-Peru

 

Agreed . . 3DMark05 depends mostly on the GPU. If you have 1GB of RAM, that's fine. Anything over that doesn't make a difference. 512MB might bring down your score a bit, how much I am not sure, but you'll see a boost with 1GB.

Chaz

 

I just got a V6J about a week ago
Graphics card wasn't as good as I expected
it's as fast as my radeon 9700 in my acer

w/ overclock(520/550):2300

w/o overclock(450/450):1906

i think it's pretty good performance except at 520/550 i do get some white dots and artifacts but i just ignore them lol rofl

 

If you're artifacting you should back off or you could damage your card.

Just because it scores the same as your acer, the new one will still perform better. Newer technology and stuff.

 

Deedeeman, you should easily score a 2200 with that machine. My Go 7400 scores a 2023 on stock settings after a fresh xp install and I can break 2300 with some overclocking..and your card is more powerful than mine.

 

Deedeeman had a score of 2600 or something, I saw it in his signature... Great score indeed...

Charlie-Peru

EDIT: Incredible! Out of box my notebook had 2280 score... after the latest drivers and good defragging I get 2385 at stock! The X700 is scaring me

 

1382 with my x600 at 425:275

 

Supposedly! I want to see an ORB.....

 

in my sig

 

ATI Tool, is best.

Because you can set-up multiple profiles to save battery and the GPU when not in heavy use.

For normal usage its best at around 150/150
For some video, DVD, online games and stuff like that around 250/200 is good.
And for gaming, as high as its default is or OC that mother****er.

 

I have a dell inspiron 9400 with:

intel t2300 core duo @1.66 ghz
1.00gb of ddr2-667 ram
60 gb 7200rpm hardrive
geforce 7800 go video card

i overclocked my video card to
core-366
memory-902

and i got a score in 3d marks of
5,512
is that any good?

 

Yea, that score is pretty good. Which drivers are you using?

 

I didnt do to badly myself for a x1400!!!
Check Sig...

 

look in sig for score. not OC'ed, but it has omega drivers. im thinking of getting those dhzeropoint drivers though. those improve your score alot?

 

i have a similar setup as you..just do what i did overclock with omega drivers...i used power strip and look my score is 500+ more than you!!!

 

After messing around with Joker's bootdisk for 7900gs, I got the system running stable at 500/600 clockspeeds, scoring 7847 3dmarks. Working now to enhance that score even further.

Also scored:

120.4 fps on CS:Source Test
87.6 fps on HL2:Lost Coast Test

 

8350 3dmark05

Stock clocks (7900GTX) everything maxxed out

CS:S stress test 110FPS for everything max (1920 x 1200, 4AA, 4AF)

 

Funny... I just read the very first posts in this thread when you got ~1900 in 3dmark03. How times change. Anyhow, I got 6413 at stock clocks. Specs in sig.

 

need to increase the ranges.

 

Good point. This thread has been going since 12-21-05. I think up to 10k is a good range nowadays.

 

Ran the stress test on HL2: Lost Coast today. 1280x800, everything topped out, vsync, color correction, 6xAA, 16xAF, 39.33FPS. No its not 87.6 like Final_Spirit got, but I've got a 7400. Im very happy with this card so far

 

I can't remember exactly, but I broke 8400. Specs in sig.
