DigeratiPrime Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 (edited) I dont generally like the 3d mark contests because the tests dont accurately reflect the current crop of games. First the specs then the scores. Everything is stock speeds btw, I dont overclock.specs:AMD Venice 3000ATI 9800 Pro 128MB1GB Corsair XMS PC3200Shuttle XPC SN95G5 v3score:3Dmark05 Score:Game Tests 3DMark Score: 1010CPU Tests CPU Score: 982When i built this machine for myself i made sure it would be able to play my most demanding game with the settings i wanted, namely UT2004 with Highest Settings on 1280x1024 which it accomplishes. I went cheap on the cpu because i knew that i could always buy a better one later. Im not upgrading it for a while because i see no reason to. But i would like to get opinions on what would be the best Socket 939 CPU and AGP card for this system? And where you think my pc's weakpoint is (my guess the cpu)?

ripken204 Posted December 21, 2005 Author Share Posted December 21, 2005 well everything is upgradable. 2gigs or ram is ideal. a dual core cpu would be nice but unnecessary for the time being. for the vid card a 7800gt like what i have is what you should be looking at.

Two interesting cards i saw were the passive cooled 6800 and X800XL both from gigabyte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you have the latest drivers and not running 50+ processes in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porn Loader Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) 9358specs in link, although im not running that 4000+ any more, moved to an opty 175. haven't rebenched 05 on the new cpu as i'll probably wont even come close to that old score (2.76ghz vs. 2.53 for new cpu).

Aegis Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 (edited) Both the CPU and VGA processor doesn't go above 35 degrees Celsius during 3DMark . I can't get below this temp even with my fans at full (currently at half speed).And this is with the processor at the stock 1800MHz with one of the cores disabled. I'll try to break 10K when I get some time.And Ripken, I don't see your pics . Edited April 23, 2006 by Aegis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
