    Smile 32,7k 3D01 with 3200+ & X800 XT - Win XP

    What do you think about this?

    http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8490208 (edited)

    Settings:

    A64 Winchester 0450 MPMW 3000+ @ 2,7 GHz, BBA X800 XT(non PE!) @ 580/580 MHz, 2x 512 MB A-DATA PC 4500 @ CL 2,5-4-4-7 1T(Trc 9, Trfc 15...), DFI nF4 Ultra, Win XP Pro SP2, Catalyst 4.12, nForce 6.39.

    Is it really worth it to switch to Win 2k and DX 8.1? I already disabled the Pagefile and set the diagnostic systemstart on my XP setup, from which I gained a few hundred points. How much would I gain from Win 2k? My goal is 32k.

    Are you running 270x10 or 300x9? Def switch to win2k and dx8.1 and get some ram that'll do 270 2-2-2-X or TCCD that can do 270 @ 2.5-3-3-7, that'll probably game you some points.

    Eh nope... This 3D01 benchie was with my 3000+ @ 9x 300 MHz, since yesterday I got a 3200+ running @ 10x 280 MHz 24/7 stable. UTT RAM with stable clockrates @ ~ 280 MHz is hard to find. My A-DATA runs atm @ 280 MHz CL 2,5-4-3-7 1T(Trc 7, Trfc 13...).

    Edit: Made a quick AM3 benchie - this CPU really pushes my X800 XT. About 1 FPS more(10x 280 MHz vs 9x 300 MHz).

    Edit 2: Ok, this really rocks...

    Still my XP SP2 installation with the ACPI-Tweak and Windows set to performance.

    Tightened the timings a bit and disabled some more onboard devices...

    http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8487414

    New goal: 33k(still without mods on the card)! I think it should be doable on Win 2k, I'm pretty optimistic. Maybe I'll install it this evening, don't have time right now...

    Thx m8. 89k+ in AM3 isn't possible without mods on the card. 600/600 MHz stable with mods would be nice, but I never modded a card before... 90k should be doable with 600/600 MHz. I have the german Windows on my sys. You can disable the pagefile this way: "Start/Einstellungen/Systemsteuerung/System/Erweitert/Einstellungen(Systemleistung)/Erweitert/Ă„ndern..." Get yourself a dictionary.

    Ok, big problem here: I tried to install Win 2k 4 times without sucsess. Before the setup loads from the CD, I get the "IRQ less or equal" bluescreen. I tried different s-ata driver(from the floppy disk) combinations and even tried to install without s-ata drivers, but every time I get this bluescreen. Any ideas?

    Yes, Win2k and DirectX 8.1 are worth it. How else would I have gotten 33k with just 12 pipes and single channel?

    I thought it was just a fallacy that pagefile affects 3dmark score...

    Hehe, now the rig seems to be stable @ 10x 283 MHz, RAM @ CL 2,5-4-3-6 1T.

    http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8490208

    I benched Super PI, Sandra, 3D01 and AM3 a few times.

    Does anyone got an idea why I get the bluescreen in the Win 2k installation? 33k would be soo easy...

    @ Gautam: Really nice score, I love it.

    @ isp: The disabled pagefile gave me about 150-200 points in 3D01 and even some points in 3D03/05.

    Kool, I guess I'll try it out when I get my stuff together. Anyone else gain points with it disabled?
    I did a search and didn't come up with much.

    As for your win2k install, does it have SP4 slipstreamed? Maybe that could help?

    Nope, it's just Win 2k without any SP's. Do you have a link for me how to do this? Otherwise I'll give google a try.
