i never ran 3dmark06, so yesterday night i decided to see what i could get... and it got 8710 points.

>> During CPU test (Red Valley) the frame rate was extremely low, i thought something was going wrong ! Is this normal ? ? ?


Anyway most benchmarks w/ 8800s are in the 8000 - 9000 range, so i'm happy with my toy


lets put our scores here

yeah, that's normal. I think RJ is the only person who has seen that test at 45fps.

my 06 score from a while back:

Why?......Do they not have that feature in Vista?

They do, but i thought you might have a hack or crack to make it easier

I've been watching the prices and various weekly rebates on NCIX.com and TigerDirect.ca for the 8800 GTS 640MB for like 2 months now (I was hoping the AMD/ATI cards launch would make the nVidia prices drop) and I still haven't decided to pick one yet. But soon... soon I shall buy one and beat all of your scores! (If my CPU is not too much of a bottleneck that is...)

After some tunning Scara's is still 7% faster

Stock:
Core @ 560 MHz
Memory @ 1700 MHz
On Load GFX Temp ~ 77ºC
3DM06 Score: 8710

OCed:
Core @ 640 MHz (+14,3 %)
Memory @ 1800 MHz (+5,9 %)
On Load GFX Temp ~ 85ºC
3DM06 Score: 9659 (+10,9 %)

I've seen some reports of 8800GTS core @ 647 and mem @ 1870 (935), but i'm afraid of going further with stock cooling... also with core @ 645 and mem @ 1820 (910) some strange black lines started to appear on the screen during gameplay

I am satisfied with this mark

~update~

C2D E6320 @ 2.80 GHz Score: 2403

for comparison...

Athlon64 3000+ @ 2.25 GHz Score: 834

Very nice scores my friend!! The performance difference between nVidia's 8*** series and the 7*** series is incredible. That 8800 is a nice card, eh?

No doubt its a great card...
The oced 8800GTS almost reaches the stock 8800GTX ...

By now i've just played NFS Carbon and Ghost Recon...I am now downloading F.E.A.R to play in the weekend...

F.E.A.R. is a great game! Plus, it's pretty freaky on the PC. I think you'll love it vrosa! I've played it to the end 3 times and have fun everytime. Hope you enjoy it!

I guess I'll have to try it out once (if) I get that 8800 GTS 640MB I've been shopping for for 2 months

No luck, the ISO i got via emule was corrupted. Trying now from another source.

~edit~

Now its ok. Great game.
