20k.jpg


Benchmark was done with Q6600 at 3916 MHz and 2 8800 GTS 512MB's in SLI at 760/900/2100.

I should be proud of myself but I can't believe I just spent several hours on such a pointless endeavor.

Anyway, I think it's time for the next version of 3DMark. If my lowly rig is hitting 20k then it's time to retire this crappy old bench.
 
nice score bro. i believe the highest is in the 29k mark atm, i dont know how the hell u can get that much.

i have a smilar setup as u, not as high of an oc, and only 1 8800gts 512 and was able to pull off 14200.
 
Awesome job ;) I too get 20384 with my 3870 x-fire setup. Nice to see 20+K pop up on the screen when that benchmark is done.
 
3dmark scores are still fun to toy with, but these days I'd be even more impressed if you told me you can play the last few levels of Crysis at something like 1920X1200 with AA enabled and all settings on very high. Now that would be impressive.

Nice job on the score :cool:. It's amazing how CPU-intensive 3DMark06 has become. I score low 14k's at my daily clocks, but that CPU at 3.9 must be fantastic :D.
 
The CPU score has less weighting on the overall score than the video scores. It is key to improving video scores, however, at such a low resolution. I am hoping the next defacto standard is 1680x1050, the new mainstream resolution to actually work the video card a little harder. Nice score !

As for the 28K runs, those are basically theoretical, anyway, since they are done with LN2 for a single run. I have never been interested in any results past what someone can do with their regular 24x7 system. So, your result is that much more respected in my book.
 
The CPU is more limiting than that I think, my rig pulls an 8300 with an 8800GT. It was pulling 7800 with a 7950GX2 but there's a huge increase in graphical performance for me upgrading from my old card to my new one.
 
Grats Sir, you now spent too much dough on pc, at least your E-Penis is huge now. :D

Thats true but my Q6600 @ 2.4 scored 1500 points higher than my X6800 @3.6.....CPU does make a huge difference in overall score....
 
Congrats! It's always a good feeling for a geek to have the fast hardware. It's in our blood!:D
