This request goes mostly to low-end system users but also to those who know somethin' about 3D Mark scores. Specs:

Celeron 750
256 MB SDRAM
GeForce MX440SE 64 MB DDR (using only 2x AGP because of crappy mobo)
Audigy 2 + other stuff

3DMark2001SE score: 1930

Is that normal? I kinda doubt it...

[diamondgeezer]

Probably. That system sucks four and one quarter eggs.

Aww c'mon, it's a pretty good medium-level machine. Granted you could upgrade to something twice as powerful without much effort - but not everyone has that kind of money.

[Gloriano]

but my computer is badest

p4 3,2ghz
2.0 gb ram
radeon 9700

[diamondgeezer]

Let me guess who payed for that.

Oh no, wait, you already told us. You really have sold your soul to Sony haven't you?

As for you, Thunder, the secret is to take out a second student account under the feigned promise thta you will be paying your loan in to it. But just rape the overdraft for a new computer

[Fineus]

Thanks for that (very wrong and immoral) idea Although the only thing I really want right now is a larger HD, water cooling and a Radeon 9800 Pro.... meh...

You actually paid full price for a "genuine" 3.2Ghz P4 or is that the much, much better value for money (even better than AMD) overclocked 2.4 or 2.6C (note: that doesn't stand for "Celeron" it's the Intel code for 800Mhz FSB Northwood B P4s) option?

I'm a tad pissed Intel released the best value for money CPU upgrade since the Celeron 300A along with their best chipset since 440BX (i875) just months after I'd bought all this AMD gear but such is life, I couldn't wait much longer to upgrade the old creaking Pentium II and at the time, AMD still held the price/performance crown.

Getying back on topic somewhat, I've had this system for nearly six months but never ran 3DMark on it. Given my specs (2400+, Radeon 9500 Pro), I'd say it'd be possible to reach somewhere between 7 and 10,000 but I'm comfortable enough with the size of my penis to not want to test that theory out.

My kind of person

[diamondgeezer]

After overclocking my CPU to 2GHz, I hit the holy grail - a nice, round 10000. Ph34r teh penis.

Oooh I'm planning a full upgrade very soon now. Until then, I just want to run Morrowind decently. And that average 12 FPS I'm having, is unfortunately far from decency.

Now 3D Mark it again

[Ulundel]

I wish kicking it would help.

Only divine intervention could beat 30 FPS out of this ancient mammoth crap

[Fineus]

Go and play Quake3 on low detail - I reckon you could squeeze 30FPS out of it...

Pfff, I get that on high detail. The original Quake 3 engine is nothing.

The one they made for Elite Force 2 on the other hand...

I knew that would happen if I tried it. Never learn, do I? Oh well. Which one did Sony pay for then? A laptop?

If $3345 is cheap (I'm assuming that's US dollars which is even worse) I'd hate to see your definition of expensive...
