I did another run, E8500 still on the mini-cascade.

This time also run 3DMark 2005, here is the result:



35K for Nvidia "single card" not bad, considering 2005 is now ATI CrossfireX territory


Much more important, I improved My Favorite Game with a few more MHz and more tweaking.. Here is what I got:

In this run, CH was not perfect I saw near 390 CH on other run but crashed on Nature, also only run CL one time..

So 110K may be quite possible with this E8500 on the Mini-Cascade and the Stock 9850GX2

That's why I love this game, everything optimization and tweaking count it's not just a matter of pure CPU and GPU power
