Futuremark Introduces VirtualMark

[malware]

Futuremark has just launched another interactive web based benchmark application called VirtualMark, that allows users to determine their 3DMark score, without actually running the 3D benchmark software on their system. Once you allow the web application to run in your browser and analyse your system, it checks the ORB database for submitted results which match your system specifications as closely as possible. It’s not going to be 100% accurate but with the millions of results already in its database, you should be able to find a match which is pretty close. Obtaining a common score is a simple three step process with VirtualMark which takes only a minute or so to run. You can give it a try here (http://service.futuremark.com/virtualmark/start.action).

I just ran it on my E2180 machine, it gave me 2000 3Dmarks, pretty close to my actual score, but still about 200 points off.

[Conti027]

i gots 11400. idk know if thats good or bad tho. i dont use benchmarks

[evil bill]

not bad - it was only 128 points off my actual score of 12,128

[trog100]

13500 for me.. meaningless rubbish.. miles out..

[Para_Franck]

My Xps m 1710 gets 5300 pts running on batteries, don't know if its good. I guess for a laptop running on batteries, it is, but it is small compared to you guys 10 000+ scores.
Does this compare to 3d mark 05, or 06?

[mlee49]

I just ran it from work~~~ 300~~~ Woot!1

:laugh::laugh::laugh::roll::roll::roll:

[Morgoth]

my score is n/a

[lemonadesoda]

What's really needed is 3DMark06.lite that only takes 60 seconds MAX to calculate the scores. The 3DMarkXX are great benchmarks but way too long to execute. Its boring.

Assuming you mean that your actual score is not as high as that, then others with comparable systems to yours are getting higher......so you need to tweak more! ;)

[powerspec]

It only gave me 10,200.... 2,000 lower than what i really got.

[Silverel]

This is nice to get a ballpark range. Checking it out on my work computer. 3.2ghz p4 with mx440 integrated graphics :p Score ends up at N/A though.

Interested to see what I'd get on my rig in specs though. That tops out at 3300 on 3dmark03

relative to a real 2006 run its miles out.. however feel free to assume anything u want to.. :D :D

trog

ps.. it might be vaguely correct with a system at stock speeds.. ??

[WhiteLotus]

i gots 7100 - but then i dont really care, as long as the games look good

I tried it earlier this week and got 13500. After tweaking my system, I get the same; however, in 3dMarks06 I get an average 12250. 12500 has been my highest. I think the virtual marks analyzes you system and provides a score of what your system speed and components should be posting. So for me, I got more tweaking to do; for others, you're doing something right.

[KoD]

Scored 200 :laugh: Work computer, P4 2.66, Radeon 9600, 512 RAM.

[imperialreign]

scored me at 9100 - about 900 points out from my typical scores of 10k

[Cold Storm]

I think I have a problem here... Just did it, and got 28700! Only at 13000ish right now... lol.. WAY OFF!

[Duxx]

Damn near just shat myself... I got 1100, then i realized im running my old X700 Pro, not my 8800GTS >.<

[cdawall]

woot 2800 for me

[sinner33]

Got 16,400. Seems spot on for me, but then again I did post my score before on that site.

[Paulieg]

I got 14,100. About 100pts. more than I score in a 3dmark06 run.

[Triprift]

i didnt even bother after seeing what it wanted me to do to get a score ill just to the actual programme.

[Bytor]

Scored 12500 with only a 3.300 ghz clock and video cards at stock speeds.
Scored 14686 at 3.553 ghz with the 3870's at 864/1377 running 3dmark06.

[pbmaster]

About 2,000 points off my actual score. Not bad though.

[Silverel]

Heh, only 400 on my rig in specs. Overclocking didn't change a thing either. Went from 395/195 to 550/225, lol.

Ah well, 3dmark06 just aint for me on this rig. I was happy to recently get 3200 points in 3dmark03

[spacejunky]

300 too high off my score. probably because I don't oc my video card

[tkpenalty]

8.9k.... Way off by around 2~3k.

You run speedstep, don't you? Maybe it's reading your cpu at idle.

[CrackerJack]

I tested the same system twice there was 2000 difference between the scores. I did no updates of anykind. wierd!

And why is everybody talking about there scores off there actuall score. The scoring system with bench mark is different. Of coarse they look low. It just like when we went from 3dmark05 to 3dmark06. But we also upgraded too.

[DanTheBanjoman]

No score, pwnd.

no - you have missed the point. Its essentially a virtual 3DMark 06. This can be proved by looking at the Fastest System that it throws up of 32513 from TeamItaly. It analyses actual 3DMark 06 scores for various components/systems to come up with your virtual score. The results do seem a bit variable though - mine was only 128 off, but others are a few thousand.

[Cuzza]

N/A! bollocks. thanks for nothing futuremark.

[Wile E]

Hahahahahahaha!!!! I don't know what it thinks I have, but it gives me 29800 pts. :roll: I ran it twice in FF, and twice in IE with the same results. lol

[Triprift]

Lol dont argue with it man ya can say now ur system gets 29 k

[Tatty_One]

Hahahahahahaha!!!! I don't know what it thinks I have, but it gives me 29800 pts. :roll: I ran it twice in FF, and twice in IE with the same results. lol

Now Bribe E Rocker to post that in the 2006 thread :rockout:

Haha! I could only wish. lol.

[Solaris17]

I got 8900 its almost 1000 points off.

I know that feeling. I tried virtualmark a month ago and got my score of 28000... I don't know how both of us got extreme score! Watering time??

[xubidoo]

11,400 main rig

1500 for 2nd rig ,altho it got the cpu wrong ,it thinks i have a E4300 lol
havnt actually run the real 3d mark 06 on it yet.



about right for me give or take a 100 points on main rig

[ShadowFold]

Its waaaay off for me, says I get 8400 points when I get 11k in the real thing... kinda useless imo

[Namslas90]

Yeah, way off, Says my AMD 3800+ New Orleans is a FX-55!!??

http://img.techpowerup.org/080405/virtualmark.jpg

[ShadowFold]

Yea it says im running Windows Server 2003 ಠ_ಠ

[Demon_82]

10100 Virtualmarks vs 11033 3Dmarks... not so bad for me. But it relies too much on the component names and not the actual speed specifications.

[Solaris17]

Yea it says im running Windows Server 2003 ಠ_ಠ

you are though......

[Wile E]

Yea it says im running Windows Server 2003 ಠ_ಠ

Solaris is right. XP x64 is built off of 2003. It's basically 2003 with the server apps removed, and preconfigured as a desktop.

[WhiteLotus]

i gots 7100 - but then i dont really care, as long as the games look good

well now i have 8800 with my FX-62
