nohoy Posted July 14, 2002 Share Posted July 14, 2002 simply if you somehow got faster ram (i know a few chipsets let you have both ddr and sd ram, ok well i think that i know this.) but anyways if you can up that then youll hit 5000 easily. my radeon 8500 would max out at like 3800 then i overclocked it, no change. but this was on pc 100 pentium 3 now its an athlon 2000 and pc 2700 and that got me over 10000 so theres a big help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThisSiteHasLostItsCharm Posted July 15, 2002 Author Share Posted July 15, 2002 well it appears i'm maxed out at 4779 marks. but still thats cool. for my pc. :) an extra 58 points core 470 mem 460 i put a new fan (i mean an old fan but bigger on the card). only used 2 screws so its at a slight angle but it cools ok. the pny fan was gay and small. :ninja: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThisSiteHasLostItsCharm Posted July 15, 2002 Author Share Posted July 15, 2002 yea wot type ram do u have? how fast are your hdds? wot chipset do u have? all these count.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nohoy Posted July 15, 2002 Share Posted July 15, 2002 yea if you are overclocking that graphics card why not up that cpu a little too. thats gonna help a whole lot. a little more fsb can be a big plus in that benchmark (at least in my experience) so go read about that and then ask some more questions.

ThisSiteHasLostItsCharm Posted July 15, 2002 Author Share Posted July 15, 2002 ah u see i have pc133 sdram so its gonna be slower than your ddr ram, thus my marks will be slightly lower than yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Posted July 15, 2002 Share Posted July 15, 2002 Originally posted by RanCorX2 ah u see i have pc133 sdram so its gonna be slower than your ddr ram, thus my marks will be slightly lower than yours. i suppose, that just proves that the memory is more important than the proc speed :D i ran the test once again got a 4909. P4 + SDRAM is definately a drawback. DDR or RDRAM with P4's SDRAM is very poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisSiteHasLostItsCharm Posted July 15, 2002 Author Share Posted July 15, 2002 lol 3dmark does have the tendancy to change scores each time u do a bench mark. and about the ram thing, yea one of my m8s says having ddr ram only makes a slight difference but only on some types, yours seems to make a largish difference though must be a good make, i guess the ones he was thinking about suck. i'd probably be better off getting a new cpu as my mobo only supports pc133 mem. dang.

nohoy Posted July 15, 2002 Share Posted July 15, 2002 Originally posted by RanCorX2 i can't oc my cpu. have you tried all the programs like cpufsb and softfsb and made sure everything is correct settings. and yea having a p4 and sdram is basically like getting a ferrari and not have any gas. so youd most likely get a big help from a new mobo and some ddr ram.

ElementWRX Posted July 15, 2002 Share Posted July 15, 2002 Oh yeah, def. upgrade your motherboard to ddr ram. It'll run a lot better. I still have SDRam but that's because I'm runing a 1GHz Celeron :sleeping: Ah well...Anyways, you should def. do that, and you'll easily hit 5000. Great job with the O/C though.

ThisSiteHasLostItsCharm Posted July 16, 2002 Author Share Posted July 16, 2002 thanx guys for the help. yea i guess i do need to upgrade but not just yet, games seem to run ok for now. i might just try cpufsb though...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
