Hey,

I ran a test on the 3DMARK06 and i got my results back. I first thought that the results were ok but then i compared them with another guy, that only has a better rpocessor than me and his score were much higher.

http://service.futuremark.com/orb/projectcompare.jsp?projectType=14&projectId=1166340&ownProjectId=3749427

On this webpage you can see my results and my hardware info, i am on the left side and the guy i am comparing with is on the right side. As you can see he had the same settings as me and the hardware is pretty much the same but he got better score.

I dont know if it is normal or not but it looks like my CPU might be bottlenecking my graphic card

I got a slight better graphic card than him my core clock and memory speed is faster but i am somewhat 10fps off when it comes to graphic test.

Can anyone explain to me whats going on?

Btw i got 500Watts PSU which had really good reviews so my PSU is good, so that shouln't be a problem

Thx for any help =)

As i cant see the other guy, im asking you what processor is he running? But my guess for your problems is most likely your processor bottlenecking your system.

You need to publish your 3Dmark score in order for us to see that link. Plus when we go to it it will compare our info with yours. We will never see the guys hardware that you are comparing, so if you want help please publish your score and post more info.

Ok srry about the fck up.

Heres the specs of both system. Mine is left side and He's is right

  • AMD 64 3400+ 2.2Ghz............. AMD 64 3800+ 2.4Ghz
  • X1950pro 256MB (587/769)...... X1950pro256Mb (580/702)
  • Driver Version 6.14.10.6727......6.14.10.6660

Thats pretty much it we got the same RAM, his got different motherboard and hard disk and everything else is the same.

Results:

Both system tested had the same settings.

3dmark score 4011......5624

SM 2.0 score 1806.......2829

SM 3.0 score 1997.......3432

CPU score 851......867

  • CPU test 1 (0.268 FPS) Yes i know its bad =) .......(0.276)
  • CPU test 2 (0.431 FPS).......0.436

Graphic test:

test 1 (13.98 FPS........23.411FPS)

test 2 (16.118 FPS.......23.737FPS)

HDR test 1 Used 3.0SM (19.025FPS......36.663FPS) Man this is getting bad LOL

HDR test 2 3.0SM 20.918FPS.....31.987FPS)

And thats it. I am not much of an expert but does 0.2 Mhz on processor makes such a difference??? Should i get the better score in graphic since my core and memory speed is faster than his?

My PSU is

Coolermaster IGreen 500W PSU so i dont think thats a problem

Any help would be great. Thx for reading

He is probably running Crossfire. 3DMark doesn't report multi-GPU configurations. Also that 200 MHz only gives him 16 marks over your CPU, so that's not affecting your score at all.
