[Menion]

Processor: 4.2

Memory: 4.5

Graphics: 5.9

Gaming graphics: 5.5

Primary hard disk: 5.2

Pretty good for something that cost me less than $600

Next upgrade is CPU and Memory... The rest will hold out for a while.

Cheers!

I figured out what SE means: sucky edition-64bit

kartel, i noticed that on one of the screens it says radeon 9600 pro..

and the last one says radeon 9600..

ah, btw your signature says radeon 9600 SE

which one do u have after all?

mine is nothing special.. i've always got 3.4, even before adding 1gig of ram.. no readyboost devices, no nothing..

a friend of mine with a radeon 9600 pro scores 3.8 or something like that.. so it's normal for a 9600 non-pro to score around 3.5.. something may be wrong on your end..

[kartel]

Well the box says sapphire radeon 9600 atlantis but I guess its a 9600se.

I manually picked the pro driver to see if would make a difference but there was none.

btw, what are the default for your video card? core/memory?

Just installed Vista today for the first time.

I had to use the XP promise drivers for my raid controller but they work fine.

For being a first time user I have to say I like it so far.

Because of the lack of Vista drivers for my Promise controller I switched from a raid0 back to IDE. My primary hard disk score went from the 5.4 to 4.3. Who ever said raid0 had no benefit?

Details:

in Vista 32bit

two IDE WD 40Gb in raid0 partitioned to 60gb = 5.4 (using XP 32bit drivers)

in Vista 64bit

one of the same 40Gb drives no raid =4.3

I think I'll have to try my XP 64bit drivers next

[kartel]

btw, what are the default for your video card? core/memory?

The default is 325\196

[dAbReAkA]

ffs,

mine says 324\181.25 as default..

[kartel]

Whats the ram size in yours?

Mine has a crappy 64bit memory bus.

I get 32fps on the ati tool at 420-216

A x850xt pe gets 500fps+

Gforce5200 gets 16....lol

[dAbReAkA]

i'm running on vista now so i'm not sure if my results would be so accurate..

no clock - 324-181 - 44 fps AVG

clocked at 420-216 - 50 fps AVG

it has 256mb of memory, so i guess my memory is slower than the "usual" radeon 9600

5.3 overall

5.3 - CPU (Core 2 Duo E6600) and the RAM (4 gB of Corsair)

5.5 - gaming graphics (eVGA GEForce 7600 GT)

5.9 - graphics (same card as above)

5.9 - hard drive (W-D 10,000 rpm SATA)
