go figure my quad sli setup scored 6.5 graphics, 5.9 for gaming? ppfft who needs windows benchmarks ne wayz
5.25 flux capacitor- whats this about?
the best i got was 3.8ghz, could game, occasional lockups though, now i just got it at the bios 5%oc cos i had probs installing vista agian then got hold of win7.
it would be good if my copy didnt have an error whenever used compatibility mode though.
have you played with gtlref voltages to get it there? i done my head in with them and gave up. plus i think i corrupted data through all the lockups a while ago.

i got it woring but i think my xf-i card has pooed itself, it is sitting between 2 98gx2's that create alot of heat, basically b4 i went to win7 i had vista ult x64, and only about 3 weeks ago when i was playing a game it started making high pitch hissing sounds and popping then the sound would cut out all together then fade in and out especially when there was a loud sound like an explosion in crysis. creative care just gave me the usual bull.
but it works perfect with movies and music, just gaming?? maybe the xddr is crapped?

ok so reinstalling the o.s. didnt do it, have tried both drivers incl .2008
i am considering goin to the asus xonar d2x ultra fidelity 7.1 pcie, that way its away from my vid cards and i will just have to get rid of my pcie tuner and find a good pci tuner card as i only have 1 pcie and 1 pci slot cos of those big brick gx2's (and thats about al they are lol)
so if a one can let me know what the xonar is like feel free.
ok i just discovered something, when in windows and playing music, if i scroll on any page eg IE scrolling up or down a page, it makes the same sound as in games, it crackles at the exact moment i scroll? wtf? then if i do it fast enough it slows the music down then cuts out, then audio resumes at a fast rate as if to catch up then goes back to normal? does anyone know if this is a sound card issue?

I am RMA'ing my Motherboard right now so I cannot post a screen shot of my score but I agree with others that the HD benchmark is not the best. I am running a Adaptec 51245 RAID controller (the card alone has a 1.2 GHz Dual core with 512MB of RAM) with three arrays:
1) 4 Seagate 7200.11 1.5TB drives in RAID 5
2) 4 Fujitsu MAX3147RC SAS (147GB 15,000 RPM's) in RAID 0
4) 4 30GB OCZ Core V2 SSD's in RAID 0
With vista installed on the either the SSD or the SAS array I cannot get a score over 6.5 so I do not know what it takes to get a score of 7.9 I have not tried installing on the RAID 5 array so maybe it takes size into account. Also, I installed it on a freshly formatted array both times. The SAS array only had a score of 6.0. Keep in mind this array is capable of 400 MB/sec writes and ~6ms access times
only diffs from specs in sig are that cpu is stock at 3ghz, gpus are at stock and im running win7 x64 public beta off a wd 300gb velociraptor.

A post I saw on another forum.....
perhaps this is correct?I got a 2.9. Googled a bit, came across an explanation. Latency is a huge factor in 7's HD score, so if you have a raid 0, you get dinged if write caching is enabled. Disabled write caching and I scored 5.9.
Promptly re-enabled it though...
what about one of those ram drives? aren't they supposed to be faster than a ssd? you obviously would be limited to space according to the controller (8gb 2gbx4??) iv'e got the saddest hdd bench here of 3.0, just a single seagate 40ns 1tb 32mb sata 2 spinnin away... so chins up!
i could always hook up a 40gb ata drive then ill be happy cos i got a higher score on my sata2 drive, and if i dont ill go hang myself and use my case for something to stand on instead of a chair. pmproflmfao!

i got a old travelmate 2480 with vista ult x32, 1.8ghz celeron 2gb ddr2 50gb ata (with some bad sectors) it runs a bit sluggish but i will wait till win7 is out of beta before converting this little beast. should be better than what it is now though.Originally Posted by DavCor;
lmao imagine my ratings, would prob be 1.0 across the board!!

if thats just a single raptor then thats pretty good considering ppl with raid configs are around the same score, maybe i should get one of those? i never had a raid config but i cant really afford to get several identical drives to do it either so a single raptor sounds good.
are they fairly noisy when spinning up?
i got the same cpu score as u at 2.87ghz?

Here's my score with the signature system. RAID0 is made out of 2x WD 640 AAKS and Windows is on a 150GB partition. Rest of the disk is data storage.

My dell XPS m1530 got a 5.2 because of poor memory scores.(ddr2-800). The top score was my G.Skill SSD which was @ 6.4. Not too shabby for a notebook.

i just checked the price on the 300gb raptor, they are about $450 aussie bucks here! and $350 for the 150gb, thats an expensive small hdd, i would have to use my other drive for media as ive used over 300gb on my 1tb. would be nice though as its the slowest part in any system (especially mine!lol)
i just got my new pci hd tuner, and will be getting the asus d2x next week
