512 megs of ddr333

asus p4pe motherboard

lian-li pc6083a case

antec 430 power

hmm... your score seems to be a little low ... i got almost the same hardware that you got and i benchmarked 4625.... so you migh wanna check your pc for problems...

where would you suggest to look.

everything ( as far as i know ) is fine.

games play great, full detail with no problems.

things did seem pretty choppy though during the 3dmark2003 benchmarks.

i adjusted the settings for my vid card to be set at optimal performance and turned off things like vertical sync and trueform.

any suggestions ?

i thought my score seemed a little low. :blush:

Well i read somewhere probably on Neowin that 3DMark03 is geared towards shader performance and directX 9 stuff and all that so the GF4 series wont be up to the challenge as well as a GeForce FX card would be. Dont be bothered about benchmarks they dont really show real world performance and thats all that matters.

You want to spend ?1000's just so you can get a higher benchmark score i have one thing that you should ask yourself "Do i have a life?"

Every time I've executed 3D Mark (now and in the past), it's never NOT depressed me about my current hardware setup.

I got 1081 marks. :wacko:

Then again, my processor is nearing 2 years old :) And I'm not looking to upgrade. This app is just what computer makers LOVE.

Scored a mere 4512 points : http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=17512

:laugh:

?! How the hell? I have a faster CPU than you and I even oc'ed my 9700 Pro to 350/680 and you have double of my score...?

I did notice that our BIOS version for 9700 is different... can that have anything to do with it... mmm

1479 3DMarks

Athlon XP 2100+

1GB DDR 2700

VisionTek GeForce ti4600

Windows XP

I understand the whole DX9 issue and why Nvidia cards score lower than the ATI 9700s, but I'm still seeing a lot of people with slower CPUs, less RAM and older GeForce cards beat my score. Thought it might be because I'm running a dual display, but disabled that, and the score remained the same.

mine gets 1487 3DMarks

and i have a 1.5ghz p4, 640mb RDRAM, and a GeForce4 Ti4200

i will give a compare link when the site actually works...i tried to send it but it says their server is down...

Yeah, I couldn't submit my results. Perhaps that's what I need to do to show grafXguru how 1337 I am with my "fake, photoshopped" score...

9000+ = instant e-penis...

    • I'm so conflicted with the Google Search AI summaries. On one hand I don't like how it's harming smaller websites by greatly reducing traffic which will harm us all in the long run but on the other hand those AI summaries often give me the information I'm after. I have never once clicked on 'show me more' though and never will.
    • Not a single company as small or large it may be is obligated to subsidize its products and sell them at a loss. Your way of thinking is socialist and as a West German with a German brother state but impoverished by state dictatorship and a socialist command economy situated to the East i can tell you - this kind of thinking very quickly leads to products not being produced anymore at all.
    • Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027 by Hamid Ganji The iPhone Fold is one of the most anticipated tech products expected to debut this fall. It will be Apple’s first foldable iPhone, ushering in a new product category for the company. While the first generation has yet to hit the shelves, a new leak suggests Apple has already begun work on its successor. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claims that the second-generation iPhone Fold has already been confirmed, meaning Apple could launch a successor in fall 2027. The foldable iPhone is also reportedly referred to as the “iPhone Ultra,” though it remains unclear whether Apple will ultimately choose that branding, especially as Samsung is rumored to rename the Galaxy Z Fold 8 as the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra this year. The leaker also claims that the second-generation foldable will feature a wider folding display while reusing the same screen found in the first generation. Apple’s first foldable iPhone is expected to feature a 7.8-inch inner display and a 5.3-inch outer screen in a passport-style form factor. It has already been reported that Apple plans to change its iPhone release cycle in 2026 to spread launches throughout the year. Under this strategy, the iPhone Fold is expected to debut this fall alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The standard iPhone 18 and iPhone Air 2 are expected to arrive later in 2026 or in early 2027. Speaking of the iPhone Air, Digital Chat Station says Apple remains undecided about a third-generation model. The company is reportedly waiting to see how the iPhone Air 2 performs in the market, and if sales disappoint, a successor may never materialize. As we reported this week, the iPhone Air has not been scrapped from Apple’s plans. The second-generation model is reportedly scheduled for spring 2027 and could introduce upgrades such as an additional rear camera for ultrawide photography and improved battery life.
    • ahh yes the good old your opinion differs from mine so you are therefore insane lol destiny 1 had no agenda pushing and was a massive success of a game, if you clearly look online the team for some reason thought they had too many men on the team and went on a woman and dei recruitment drive and we all know how destiny 2 performed from then on in
    • The limited imaginations and business acumen of non-dominant players is simply that: the abject lack of creative business acumen. Businesses often want to operate in a financially-rewarding marketplace (free market economics) and/or exit/cash-out at maximal financial recompense. Money is their incentive; regulations are both their obstacles and their tools; politics is their means of influencing the marketplace. Google, in this story's example, is crying that AWS and Azure are "too dominant" -- cuz Google Cloud is not printing as much money as Alphabet wants (although it is still dramatically more than they actually need). The EU DMA should truly follow-the-money and treat the EU as its own sovereign nation in order to protect European market players: Domestic entities are exempt from market-influence regulations until absolute monopoly is achieved; Foreign (non-EU/non-Euro) entities are all regulated via stricter DMA measures whereby regulated partnership with independent domestic entity becomes the only way for foreign entities to 'tip the scale' for favorable financial remunerations. Basically create a dual-track aligning with China's foreign investment models. In my eyes, this is the only way to properly protect the European marketplace beyond the current dot-com/ai-bubble/social-media crazes.
