Jealousy is the sincerest form of... something...

That's the most sensible thing I've heard all day.

Whoah... I'm glad I don't have a Geforce MX... Even my system (1.4Ghz Athlon-before-the-XP-stuff) can get over 2000 in 3DMark with a very, very old Voodoo 3 2000... 16mb! And it's good enough for me

[Descenterace]

Athlon XP 1700+ with a Radeon 9700 Pro.  Quake 3 runs at full detail, 1280x1024 resolution, at about 60fps.

Even UT2003 can manage 50fps at 1024x768.  My computer is nearly 2 years old, and it can run new games really well.  For the amount this thing cost me two years ago, you could buy an Athlon XP 3000+ with a Radeon 9800 Pro and a massive hard disk.  That'd run several games at once...

Okay...you can now clearly see that there's something wrong with my system.

My result:
Pentium 4, 1700 MHz
314 RAM, GeF4 MX 440
Score: 4166

[OH!] 3Dmark2001, 1024x768x16, Texture quality: 16-bit, others are default.

Gotta find a way to fiddle with IOQD now. As far as I know 1 is somekind of debug setting and that's what I currently have.

Damn BIOS, why don't you have all the options I need...

*wonders if he should mark his Duron 600, 320 Ram, and 32 meg GF2 PCi card...*

*is DLing now...*

Last time I did this, I told Kazan my score, and he was amazed I got Starcraft to run on it... Let alone FS2

[Taristin]

I scored 1374 on the 3dMark2000 test...

and on 3DMark03 I scored:











20 3D Marks

[Ulundel]

Whoa...I guess 3DMark03 is out of question in your case

[Descenterace]

My system got 3380 points on 3DMark 2003.  I guess that means that Half Life 2 and Doom 3 should be playable on it, huh?

Should be? Will be.
I hope the authors will optimize the performance well. I hope Doom 3 will be running on my comp well.

I just ran 3DMark 2001 with maxed-out settings:
1280x1024
32Bit
6xAA
Triple Framebuffer

and got a score of about 5530 (forgot to note exact score).

Then I ran it with default settings:
1024x768
32Bit
No AA
Double Framebuffer

and got 11460...

I can't wait for Half Life 2

You can, because you are already waiting.
Your machine is stronger than the explosion of a Helios...

[Taristin]

I guess this means I should upgrade?

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

Is that normal? I kinda doubt it...

(at default 1024*780 settings)

My old pc;

Amd Athlon XP 1500+
dodgy Asus motherboard (might have been a generic ripoff)
256mB SDRAM
GF2 MX100/200 32MB

Score -  ~1300 marks

(I think part of this may have been that i never bothered to reinstall Windows, i just plonked my old HD into the new machine)

My improved Pc;

AMD Athlon XP 2400+
Abit nForce2 KF-7s
512MB RAM (running at 266 on the slowest DDR slot due to case size issues )
