old Futuremark 3DMark2001 SE Benchmarks

[Sazar]

for the smart lad on the previous page who said intel does not need watercooling coz it is cooler than amd I say bollocks...

anytime you start overclocking extreme like taking a p4 to 2.9-3 gig range... you need to cool it...

the reason people look to water cooling solutions are because it is the BEST way to cool and most effective... sure you can have monster heatsinks... that is not the only solution though... run special heatsinks with pipes channeling water through em on the HDD/CPU/GPU and see what happens to your core temperature

it does not matter if you are using intel/amd coz when overclocking you are stressing your CPU more than it was intended to be... therefore you HAVE to take measures to keep temps down else yer gonna have fried chips for dinner...

my two cents...

I understand but what I am saying is you will need watercooling for and amd long before you will need it for an intel at the same MH overclock.

And Im not a "lad"

I just burn out a geforce 3 ti 200 because of overclocking (I think) and what comes down to the base of this is that overclocking in an ego thing, and in turn so are our scores. One of my drivers at work Radeon 8500 whooped the pants off of my ti 200 but my geforce 4 ti 4200 put my scores almost 3000 points above his, fact of the matter is high scores just inflate our egos

Damn those new 2980 drivers rock

My 3d2001SE score jumped from 10312 to 10720

Nice... and all I did was drink a beer.. wonder what would happen with tequila.

Isn't that the point? I mean really now, isn't it?

 

[UniSol]

YESSSS, my geforce 4 4600 just arrived

Will post benchmarks when I get home

/me wants to break the 13k barrier!

MY SCORE!!

Hey guys, my specs are :

Athlon XP 1700+
256MB DDR PC2100
MSI KT333 ULTRA
MSI GeForce4 TI 4200 128MB DDR (29.42 drivers)
30gig Maxtor 7200 RPM UDMA 5
30gig Quantum 7200 RPM UDMA 4
Creative Labs Soundblaster Live! Value
Plextorwriter 16/10/40
Matshita 50x CD-ROM

Well my problem is that my score is only 8642 (default settings), i wanna know if that sounds right or not, and if i can get it to push a little more without overclocking it, i use Geforce tweak utilities and try to fool around with that but the highest i got was 8850, now i cant get it back to those scores, dont know why, maybe it could be the new VIA 4 in 1's.... btw which VIA drivers are best for performance/stability??? also which NVIDIA drivers would be best for my video card? Thanks in advance,

RaZoR

ps.... reason i am concerned is because i have seen other peeps with same specs/drivers and they are getting 9000+ even upto 10000+

 

[fitfella29]

seems ok to me maybe they have o/c there card to get them scores?

windows xp pro

UniSol
Your score of 11278 says " The benchmark was NOT run using default settings "

So it means nothing!

 

[fitfella29]

well spotted,lol

 

[Comptech]

Oh well time to buzz in I guess. 11523 at default. No overclocking of my Ti4600 or my PIV 2.0

^^meaning I need someone to give me a serial so I can use the "Pro" version, which has all the features unlocked, im missing one benchmark, I cant use it until its unlocked, that is why other people have better score.

Either your on to something or on something. I think the later. There is no SPECIAL feature for a pro version. I've NEVER had any PRO version.

Try again.....

 

[Taurus]

i can't get mine to NOT say "The benchmark was NOT run using default settings."... and the settings are all default... is it cuz i have a gf2 and can't do "pure hardware t&l"?

and unisol, the pro version will NOT give you a higher score... teh score is only based on the first three tests (car chase, dragothic, and lobby).

 

[UniSol]

Cool, so I only have to run the first 3, nice!

 

[_DM_]

I had a computer scince 1998, Ok i'm embarressed to say this, How do I find out my 3Dmark 2002?

Download a benchmark called 3dmark2001, after it has finished running it will show you a number, that is your score. download from here:
