So I just picked up a Visiontek X800XT today. I ran drivercleaner, installed cat
5.3's. Set everything accordingly and ran a couple benchmarks. Scorea are as follows:

3dmark05 - 41xx
3dmark03 - 7492
aquamark - 56,xxx

Setup is as follows:
A64 3200 @ stock
Visiontek X800XT @ stock
1GB corsair value pc-3200
DFI Lanparty UT nf3-250
etc. etc. etc.

Anyone have any ideas what might be causing this? I also reinstalled my chipset drivers and tried fastwrites on and off in bios. I also tested with 128MB and 256MB AGP aperture with no difference with any of the above settings.

My 6800NU beat this 3dmark03 score by about 2,000 points...:( :( :(

Ideas? Help me!
 
Somethings deff wrong...I get 12,350 in 3dmark with my X800XT ( gigabyte ) Did you set everything to application preference in the CP?
 
The average score for an X800 XT in 3DMark05 is 5,779.

Be forewarned, that average includes mostly cards that are overclocked.
So 5,300 is probably a good score for a stock X800 XT.
 
Well, I did something. Guess with the kid and the cat attacking each other behind me and having to mediate between them I did something that fixed it.

Wish I knew what I did but I just ran 3dmark05 and it went up to 5586, much better.

Tough to pay attention to what you're doing with a hissing cat and screaming baby in the background. :rolleyes:

I'm one of those that are too lazy to format once a month. I'm just glad I'm back in ATi's camp and out of nVidia's beta guinea pig program.
