3DMark03 out

[Gonz]

Tbred, faster memory & 9700 certainly up the score

 

[PT]

I still haven't downloaded that, I'm still too depressed about my '02 marks to even think about my '03.

 

[fury]

Are you talking about 2001?

Man... By comparison, my system flies with 2001. 5645 marks fully overclocked.

 

[PT]

Yeah, ok, whatever the last one was, was it 2001? I guess so. I only scored something like 2500 with it. I just know it will be under 1000 and I just can't deal with that kind of rejection right now.

 

[fury]

I got 264 (no, I'm NOT missing a digit there. 264.) in 2003. No offense, but I'd be surprised if it even runs on your system. 03 only did one of the game tests and the 2 fill rate tests on my Geforce2.

 

[PT]

I don't have the TNT in it anymore. It's a Geforce 4 MX440, If I think about it, I'll try it this weekend.

 

[fury]

A Geforce4 MX440 achieved 2500 on 3dmark2001se? That's wrong. That's just wrong. It should be scoring somewhere between a Geforce2 and a Geforce3. Are you sure antialiasing wasn't on? I remember hearing somewhere that the drivers force FSAA on for all Geforce4's

 

[PT]

I had Anti Aliasing off, still have it off for that matter. It is overclocked to the max.

 

[fury]

That's odd. There are scores of 10,000 using Geforce4 MX440's.

 

[PT]

No shit!?

hmmm. It is the crappy SdRam version, not the DDR. That would make some difference, but I should still be doing better than that.

 

[catocom]

I got a 982 with my little rad-9000 64mb ddr
I don't really game, but I could probably tweak it somehow.
eh, nah it works ok for me.

If I got into gaming, I'd probably get the 9700.
It'd probably smoke on this system.

Tbred, faster memory & 9700 certainly up the score

Shame they have the opposite effect on my bank balance (Well the memory and 9700. The Tbred B was £70 )

 

[Luis G]

I'll get it later just to see if it runs on my TNT2

 

[PT]

Damn Luis, you really need to get a new vid card.

I've been trying to download it since yesterday, can't seem to find a decent site. Looked at the ones at HWC, it seems to be taken off of some of those already. I'll try again tonight.

 

[Luis G]

All i do now is play Undying, browse and program. The card is more than enough for what i do.

 

[Justintime]

downloaded not installed. Luis you should get a radeon 9700 with a decent cpu, you'd be loving ut2003 with all eye candy @ 1280x1024, marvellous and lifelike! my Geforce 3/4 cards make it look like a painting and can only dream of those resolutions with eye candy and still being smooth as silk, nvidia sucketh! lovin ma 9700

[catocom]

I can see right now my rad-9000/64mb ain't cuttin' it.
running on a p4t533-2.53mhz 512-pc1066....
982, uh-uh, got to go.

 

[HeXp£Øi±]

I just got this Radeon 9500pro yesterday and i'm chuffed. Big old shit eating grin on my face.

 

[Justintime]

around 4900 with a plain 9700 non overclocked and XP 2700+@ 2.48Ghz.
