Yeah, the AMD 64 seems kind of silly ATM. There are not a whole lot of 64 bit apps out there. Of course, there will be someday. I'm sure ppl made the same comments back when 32 bit processors came out. I am interested to know if 32 bit apps perform as well on the AMD 64 as on a comperable 32 bit processor. It would seem like there would have to be some kind of interpreter on it to choose between 32 and 64 bit and I am wondering if that slows things down at all...

Then again, I may have no clue what I am talking about...

Well I finaly went out and bought a new graphics card.
The Geforce fx 5900. It was a toss up between this card
and the radeon 9800.... Impulse shoping won the day

The scores below are with my old card. One Geforce 3 ti 200
original bench
3300-3400

new bench
2500-2600 low
1700-1800 high

And with my new card with the 52.13 drivers, they are beta
use them at your own risk.
Original bench
5****

New bench
35xx Low
33xx High

For some reason I get the idea that I may need a new
cpu and motherboard to really get the most out of this card.

No really I know that I need the new cpu. I'm planning on a
athlon xp 2800+. The prices have come down a lot on those in
the past week

I just wish I knew when amd and intel are going to release some
new cpu's. Sure you can say that amd just launched to 64 but
so what. How well does the 64 overclock and just what is going
to be the speed ramp up on those. Not only that but is amd ever
going to turn around and release some more of the barton xp's?
The 3200+ can't be the best that peice of silicon can do, its also
been on the market for a while with no new speed increases.
That goes double for the intel side. I think however that intel
might have been playing a wait and see what amd does first.
With the power hungrey 5900 and 9800 graphics cards even the
fastest cpu's don't supply them with enough info when trying to
run HL2, or at least that is what was reported on a few web sites
that reviewed the game.

Anyway we'll see what happens in the near future anyway. Now
Lets have some dx9.1

Laptop Specs

Above is a link to the specs of my laptop. After shutting down MSN, AIM etc. and trying to exit/disable as many background programs as I could I still only scored a 1550 on Low Res. on the new benchmark. What do you think? should I have scored higher?

And if that is my best score possible is it even worth getting the game? I was considering buying it to give me something to do at work.

[tomc1988t]

well looks like its LOw res for me ...is low res for pc same as ps2?? if so i dont care if i need low res

what type of gf4? mx420 im guessing...

aerobahn, hopefully im getting the 9600pro from best buy (it's 175, so ide save about 2 cents for not needing shipping), and 2 sticks of 256mb rd800 (rd is automatically ddr and dual channel on northwood processors).

another thing aerobahn, PUT SOME SPACES IN BETWEEN THE DOTS.... IT SCREWED UP THE REPLY PAGE AND THE THREAD PAGE

[Kronosan]

I'm just curious what the dif is between v1.0 and v1.01. What version of the benchmark is everyone running?

[replica]

<.< god SOMEONE threw this page off a little >.> hehe

anyways, p4p4p4p4p4p4p4 all the way =\ it's like 90 bucks more than the 2500+ barton.. but a 2.4c p4 OC'd to 3 ghz.. with that nice FSB.. will KILL most OC'd 2500+ bartons. like, for free =\ with stock cooling.

but, my next upgrade is an athlon 64.. for xmas hehe.

[Ranmas]

Athlon 1.5 no its not a xp..... unfortunatly
512 megs of pc2100 ddr
fsb running at 274mhz
40gb hard drive main drive
80gb hard drive dive the benchmark is
running on
dfi ak76sn motherboard
geforce 3 ti 200

original bench
3300-3400

new bench
2500-2600 low
1700-1800 high

well I'll be replaceing my motherboard,
processor, graphics card and my ram
soon.

A few days ago I thought I would be
getting a amd 2800+ but I've been
looking at just how much you can
overclock the p4 2.4'c' and I'm now
wondering which one would be better
to get.
Because overclocking to 2.4 to over 3
only takes stock cooling.

as for graphics cards I plan on going with the ati radeon 9800.

what do you guys think about amd/p4
choice here. Which one do you think I should get first the graphics card or the new processor/motherboard/ram.

Ahhh the joys of life.....

[InuTrunks]

Thats about my system right there, cept I have a AMD 2400 *going to be a 2600 for the 333 fsb*

How'd you pull that? I used to pull it, then my computer kinda died (check my OCing post). Anyway. What are your settings in the advanced tab for the 9000 pro? Is yours the 128 MB or 64 MB version?
