Alcpone's Official 3dMark Vantage Compilation

you guys must start running Vantage without physics....that`s legit way to go..

Well, the lack of using PhysX (which is sponsor of the Vantage benchmark) for competitive benchmarking effectively handicaps the system so that ATI can compete. The 3DMark benches were always touting future game performance (not current games) as a measure. Since PhysX is a component of some current and upcoming games, it makes sense that a PhysX capable system would be better equipped to handle upcoming games and should definitely be a consideration of a benchmark that pretends to predict the future.

Now, as a handicapped race, which 3DMark has become, it makes sense to keep things competitive or people complain about unfair (dual GPU cards are not a single card, drivers cheat, etc, etc). But, in the end, sales are hurt on both ends a bit. ATI is the king of 06 and NVIDIA (with PhysX) the king of Vantage (that is, until ATI gets PhysX or Ageia capable drivers). Maybe people would have picked up cards from both camps to attempt score domination on all fronts. Instead, they decided, due to pressure from the benchmarking crowd, to handicap the bench so that no one had to buy anything else other than a 4870x2 to win on almost all fronts.

That's my take, biased, tainted, and skewed

then theres ppl like me that find ways around the problem

Fitseries3 · Oct 30, 2008

still working on it....

Yes, definitely working the system. Best of both worlds. I think that is what Wile E was talking about. The creativity and tweaking beyond simply super cooling a couple of cards.

I dont know about that heavy, ur GPU score with the new drivers is 27K... even without PhysX that would still beat r1Rhyder's 26K so given the same processor you would still be in first place even if PhysX wasnt in the game... Althogh i agree with you on the PhysX being a part of the the future of gaming.

Yes, that is why I could get 25K without PhysX enabled. Georgis.th beat that, however with the supercooled CPU.

Maybe we could have a non-PhysX leaderboard, as well? It would atleast make the game available to any and all. I am curious (as always) about both results.

I'm curious as to what ATi will do about the physx battle.

I just got my copy of Win7, and am gonna give a 2900XT and 8800GT combo a shot, just for the fun of it. Unless, of course, sombody wants to send me a 4870X2 and 280GTX to see what I can do. :roll:

TRIPTEX_CAN · Oct 30, 2008

Just shy of p12k C2D @ 4Ghz still holds these cards back.

Should be an interesting run!

Nicely done with the daft CPU. Looks like you are working out the kinks

Fitseries3 · Oct 30, 2008

im just flooding its brain with voltage so it has no choice but to run ok.

johnspack · Oct 30, 2008

made a mistake on the list, g30rg1e is actually running a 260gtx, and nice job g30rg1e! I was looking at the 775 core and thinking, noooo way! 280s just don't do it....

Finally got the P5Q3 to work right, had one little bios setting off and it totally killed me for months. Now it works. Also my first posted bench with the Q9650, still have lots to play with it.

Updated.

Ran this in my AMD rig with a 3870 and 3870x2 in crossfire....

Fitseries3 · Oct 31, 2008

does this seem about right?

Drop the RAM speed and up the core speed, more OC on the core affects the score more than more OC on the ram. Other than that nice score.

Visiontek 3870 was set to 896/1224, I suspect it was despite the 877 gpu-z shows
E8200 was at 3.9ghz.
These where the base settings on Vantage.

this is better to add jbunch07 :laugh:

thnx

DOM · Nov 1, 2008

groothof22 you going to OC that CPU

should get 4GHz on stock or less volts with a E8500 E0

I get 4250Mhz with 1.304v
