What kind of CPU score is that if it uses the GPU? I don't get it. :confused:

the physx tests are done with the cpu or with physx support hardware.Quote:

btw, Stelios check your PM box ;)
I never knew that. But now that I do that actually makes sense.Quote:

yap, you are right, first cpu test tests AI, second cpu test tests physics, so CPU test2 is all done by GPU :)Quote:

Downloadin Vista32 now...hope it works :D
Rbs.
:wave:
can someone quickly test 3DMARK2001 > CH
Vista32 working
Rbs.
:wave:
How about some actual game tests?
Working .inf for 8800GTS 512
Rbs.
:wave:
EDIT: For Vista32
EDIT2:

be back soon
That completely OWNS for a single GPU.
Looks like for this generation Nvidia is actually going to beat AMD at 3dmark.
Now I want to see TRI-SLI. :p:
Also it seems there are still BIG performance increases coming to 200 series with new driver improvements, it will be exciting to see how much better these cards get over the next 2 months or so.
are you saying you have physx running on that card w00t :DQuote:

now do some benches to see how it stands :up:Quote:

BTW if those benches are true they DEMOLISH the 4850. It's astonishing.
run Vantage before and afterQuote:

First time Vantage ever hehehe...what do you think?Quote:

I think it's not working :(
EDIT: It's working?
BTW, Q6600@3600Mhz DDR2 1000@5-5-4-12 PL7 etc..

=] it deff works here but it seems to pause a bit during the physics test so mayb new drivers will fix that i also ran the test @ 1680 x 1050Quote:

Nope it's working :) Now i just want my g80 to work!!

It's even better with a second card. On a single card, partitioning the workload to do some physics = lower graphics framerate.Quote:

You've heard of "CPU-bound", you've heard of "GPU-bound", but now you'll hear about "Physics-bound"
Very nice driver, nice increase in scores. Everyone will have to rerun Vantage.
Give me 64bit vista version :)

The version 177.39 is corrupt.
