It's amazing how I'm sure games run butter smooth yet benchmarks suffer so much from CPU bottleneck. Who cares about a little bottleneck anyway. :ying: Oh, and you're not posting the right link. That's why it doesn't work.
Update: [hwbot]16282 - C2D E4300 @ 3ghz | BFG 8800GTS 320mb @ 600/1700 [/hwbot] 16282 Another quick test run with cpu at 3ghz and small oc on GPU. Cpu 3dmark06 looped stable at 1.39v
Futher Update: [hwbot]16578 - C2D E4300 @ 3ghz | BFG 8800GTS 320mb @ 600/1800 [/hwbot] 16578 Small overclock on GPU along with tweak to memory timings For some reason my motherboard set my memory timings to 5.5.5.31 in instead of the correct 5.5.5.15. Changing the timings to the correct ones netted me 220 points compared to a previous run.
Futher Update 2: I have been tweaking my PCI-E frequencies along with overclocking a bit futher. [hwbot] 16785 - C2D E4300 @ 3000mhz (1.39v) - BFG OC 8800GTS 320mb @ 625/1890 [/hwbot] 16785 Pci-e frequency @ 104mhz For some reason my ram won't overclock at all in the bios with my FSB set to unlinked. Will have to have a bit more of a tinker in between modding my xbox 360.
Lol Yup. Just did a bit of tweaking really and squeezed an extra few hundred points out of the old girl. Will try and push my cpu possibly up to 3.2ghz at some point although I will have to get much better cooling for that. I think 17k should be quite easy with this setup.

Good job Don, today I just changed my NB Fan with HR-05 SLI and SB VC-RE the only thing now is getting better CPU then maybe i'll meet you guy's again Good Luck Guy's
arg wth, Just ran 3dmark 05, havnt ran it for ages and got 6900 :S Sometin wrong with my comp, might reformat
Reformat rogue. Scores will always decrease when your HDD is full of junk and your registry is clogged with millions of other applications. It just happens.
Nice score Dublin. If only I had the raw power of your CPU behind my 7800GTX, I would have scored nearly the same. :smoke:
