3dmark06? your cpu plays a HUGE role in your score. next time give more info so people wont have to ask basic questions.
 
Dunno, my Slightly OCed single 8800GTX with dual core chip gets me 12k even.
 
Sounds fine, basically the 8800GTS is half an 8800GTX on paper. So if you get perfect scaling, the SLI setup should about equal the 8800GTX.

Of course, you won't see such impressive scaling in real games, and the 256MB memory will hold you back in current titles.
 
Looks good. I peg 14,500 with a GTX (overclocked a bit) and same CPU and ram at the same speed.
 
Seems a bit high as I understood the 8600's were underpowered. And two of them in SLI would still be rather weak compared to one decent GPU like the 8800GTX, which would score around 14k+.

So that's pretty good, although you're probably using WinXP. But I doubt it'll be as good in real gaming though...

yeah 8600gts in SLI is still weaker than even a modern single midrange card.
 
Yes, I'm on Windows XP Pro 32bit.
Underpowered? Why would they be underpowered? They're getting power from the PSU since they're connected by PCI-E connectors.

reading comprehension? he meant underpowered as in WEAK. he made that perfectly clear and I even followed that up by quoting him and agreeing that they are weak.
 
That is about right. Happy?
3DMARK is dead.
Nobody cares but the hippies at Futuremark/You Gamers.
3DMARK died with Mad Onion.
 
Pretty solid score for 8600GTS's. Beats my "old" 9600GT by about 1k, which had a faster CPU.
 
That score's in line for what I get/got on my 8800gt or 2900pro with a q6600 @ 2.9. So that seems about right.

Go troll somewhere else. People are gonna use 3DMark, Vantage, etc etc, whether you like it or not.
 
You're scoring that high with only 8600gts?

btw. I think this thread will be interesting, expect some shouting from the pro-3dmark and anti-3dmark here and there, and oh, the guy mistaken 8600gts with 8800gts was also quite hilarious.
 
If people don't like 3DMark and Vantage then what are they using instead of those?
 
Wow, mister E, you got 14,500? I ran it with the free version and got 15,597 with my current build (in sig). Did you overclock everything tho? I got mine overclocked to the best I could before running 3dmark.
 
12,500 is pretty good for 8600gts SLI. This system gets about 12k even with the asus hd4850 (fact. OC). Handles crysis, far cry 2, and fallout 3 just fine. Everything else on the system is running at stock speed. No need to OC since it's capable of the intended purpose.

Do you guys think there's a difference between a hd4850 and 8600gts sli in real life game play performance?
