evga 7800gt co 3dmark !HELP!

acidfr34k · Jan 9, 2006

Hi,

I have bought an new System and now i am going crazy

DFI Lanparty UT nF4 SLI-DR Expert
AMD 64 Sandjego 3700+ (runs @ 2.800 Ghz)
OCZ DIMM 1GB DDR-600 Kit TCCD Platin
2 x Samsung HD160JJ SATA2 8,9/7200/8MB (Raid 0)
evga 7800gt co (20 piplines)
Enermax EG565AX-VE(W)FMA / 535Watt

Now my Problem....

The correct facts of the card are 470 / 1100
I overclocked it to 480 / 1200 (runs stable)
but i got very poor 3D Marks

3D Mark 2003 = 15673 Points
3D Mark 2005 = 7023 Points

Think it should be extrem more.

Habe installed the 81.98_forceware_winxp2k_english_whql.exe
and
nForce4_amd_6.70_winxp2k_english.exe

Can someone help my why my System is so slow?

CPU Athlon64
CPU Takt 2800 MHz Speicher
Athlon64 2800 MHz
Chipsatz nForce4
Speicher Dual PC4500 DDR
Readspeed 7403 MB/s
Writespeed 2482 MB/s
Speicher DDR 2.5-4-3-7 38.4 ns

THANX

looks aight man...a bit low...not too low.

acidfr34k · Jan 9, 2006

hier is a bench with an lower sytem (BUT WITH ORIGINAL TACT 470 / 1100)

DFI LP NF4 SLI-DR Motherboard
? AMD Athlon 64 3800+
? Corsair TWINX1024-3200XL
? Maxtor 120GB SATA HDD
? DirectX 9.0c
? NVIDIA FordeWare 78.01
? Windows XP Pro SP2

and the points are much better

another benchtest (3DMark05) from hardwarehell

dont know what to do

what are your settings in the NV control panel? no aa/af, vsync off, high performance..etc

acidfr34k · Jan 9, 2006

no aa/af , vsync off , high performance

buzzsaw13 · Jan 9, 2006

I get about 6900 with my C3D X800GTO, you should be getting way higher scores.

acidfr34k · Jan 9, 2006

thats what i mean

HEEEEELP

Nextman916 · Jan 9, 2006

what are your settings in teh NV control panel? if you left them default vsync might be on and god knows what else is dis/abled.

buzzsaw13 · Jan 9, 2006

Try uninstalling your drivers and running a driver wipe with driver cleaner. Then reinstalling drivers to see if that fixes the problem.

JustStarting · Jan 9, 2006

I have almost the same setup (see sig), but not the expert board. My eVGA 7800GT is clocked slightly ( I think 450/1100 from 445/1070) and I get 7,690 in 3DMark05 and 16,394 in 3DMark03.

If your system is a fresh install, check for disc fragmentation and defrag. You will be surprised. I'm using the 81.98 drivers and coolbits to clock.

What are your Sandra memory scores? What timings are you running at? FSB? HTT?

aa = off
af = off
image settings = high performance
vsync = off

is there something else to disable?

I installed Windows 2 times and tried 2 differend drivers 81.94 and 81.98..... same points

Installed Sandra now, but i dont know the program. Can u tell my the way to the the scores? My timings are 2,5 - 4 - 3 -7
Its no Problem that the Memory Slot selection is 3 and 4 ?
FSB 280. Multi 10. It runs @ 2.8 Ghz

after defrag = 3D Mark 2005 = 7023 Points

JustStarting · Jan 10, 2006

you need the memory in slots 2 and 4 (orange) preferably OR 1 and 3 (yellow). If you are running slots 3 and 4 you are not running DC with your memory.

Sorry, they are in slot 2 and 4 (orange) but cpuz says it is 3 and 4

cpuz

here are my everest timings

everest

and here is super pi

superpi

think the ram is good, should be the card

could i have a bad card???
i live in germany and to get a new one from the USA is a FUxx
What should i tell EVGA, the Card is ok, but i do not get enough peformance at Benchmarktests.... lol, they never give me a new one

JustStarting · Jan 10, 2006

CPC enabled??

I'm running 9x300FSB, 1:1, with the timings at 8-4-4-2.5-1T (CPC enabled= 1T). Bank interleave on?

Try the 704-2a bios.

My System runs @ 10x280, 1:1 with the timings @ 8-3-4-2.5-1T (CPC enabled= 1T)

Now testet i with 9,5x295, 1:1 with the timings @ 8-4-4-2.5-1T and i got 7125 Points

gonna test it with 8-3-4-2.5-1T now

gonna post results in 15 minutes

don't use half multipliers......

but with 9 i only get 2,7 gHz

Screenie of my memory timings.

MBM5 modified to show 7800GT GPU temp (35 in red), core and memory clocks (445 and 1098 on the right

acidfr34k · Jan 10, 2006

with the original timings (470/1100)i only get 6990 Points

acidfr34k · Jan 10, 2006

think i have found the problem!
My CPU (3700+) runs @ 2.8 Ghz, but i get only 4080 Points at CPU Test (3DMark05)
Think the Sandjego is not good for overclocking

Now i test another CPU

imhungry · Jan 10, 2006

But even a 3000+ will do more than 7k with that video card...

Processor doesn't have that big an effect on 3dm05.

Matt2 · Jan 10, 2006

I got 7400 with a single eVGA 7800GT (445/1070). 8354 with that same GT @ 510/1200.

I have a slower processor and RAM, so dont let anyone tell you your scores are fine.

How do games play? Can you give us some game FPS?

JustStarting · Jan 10, 2006

yaaaaaahhhhhhooooooo!!

just clocked her up to 500/1150 (didn't try higher yet)!!

8,127

acidfr34k · Jan 11, 2006

I tried another Card (Aopen 7800 GT). It runs with another CPU on the same board (same bios) and brings 7650 points (430/1100) and 8300 Points (480/1180)
But on my System also 6980 Points (470/1100).....

So i think my Card is ok...

3D Mark05

Have made some tests with Sandra...

Sandra_Arithmetik

Sandra_Speicherbandbreiten.jpg

Sandra_CPU_multimedia

SandraSystem

cpuz

superpi

everest

So i think the Ram is ok, The Harddrives are ok, the Card is ok and the CPU too........

WHY I GET SUCH BAD POINTS???????????????????????

Could the board be bad?

professor1942 · Jan 11, 2006

SuperPI score looks good...

you're just not getting quite the PCI-e performance you should be.

Have you tried different memory? How does it perform with lower memory speed (ie. set it to DDR333)? What is HTT setting? 3x?
