GF4 4200 3dmark 2001SE scores

[gplracer]

I have following:
Athlon XP 1700+ @ 2079mhz (180fsb)
512 Hyperx Ram
8RDA+

My 3dmark 2001SE scores were around 9600 which seemed fine for my geforce 3 card. I got one of the $79 GF4 4200 cards at BB and now my score is 12800 with the card at 270/567. I have not tried it higher yet. I really did not think my score would go up that much. What do you think? Is this odd?

My GF4 4200 gives my 10600 at the factory settings. Yours seems reasonable with the overclocking.

I have the following:

Athlon XP1800+
768 DDR PC 2100 Mushkin
64mb GF 4 Ti4200 PNY

3DMark2001SE score was averaging 8800 without the system being overclocked. I'd have to agree with snake that your figures are reasonable, but I'm impressed they were THAT high.

i get around 10500 and i dont overclock

see sig for specs

 

[ShowdOWN]

i got 13600 with my pny g4ti4200 64MB

Jesus christ. I'm pulling 6K figures for my old GeForce3. There's gotta be something severely wrong with my system if my scores are that miserable, and I haven't a freaking clue what it could be.

9629 3dmarks with my Geforce 3......system in sig....

My new Ti4600 only gets 5280 and that with the memory oced to 690

i'm getting about 11,000 with my albatron geforce 4 ti4280pv (not overclocked). the p4 1.6a overclocked to 2.1 is helping with my score. it's stable as a rock and plays all games well. 3dmark is overrated anyways.

I have and Asus Ti4200 and i get 12,800 with 3dmark2001.

Other parts:

Asus A7N8X
XP 2700
1024MB Samsung ram
WD 80Gig 8mb cache



I have a Ti4600 on my other system and I have to say the asus 4200 keeps up nicely. Just waiting till the NV35 comes out. Then I'll upgrade it.

 

[arkcom]

any guesses as to why I'm not even scoring half as well as a ti4200?
edit: i just got a 1481 in 3dmark2003

 

[FrustratedUser]

I get around 1000 with a GF2 MX PCI running on a Celeron @ 500MHz

For those of you who have scores lower than others... if you've overridden the settings for AA and AF by setting them in the nVidia tool, your scores will be lower because 3DMark will not be able to disable AA and AF for the tests to use default settings that everyone else uses... also make sure you're giving you 3DMark2001 score, not your 2003 score

BTW... the score in my profile is with the timing at 260/520 (Gainward Ti4200 128 MB)

3DMark scores don't mean jack squat by themselves... but if you're tweaking, or upgrading, that's the way to determine if your tweak/upgrading made a positive difference.

for kicks i get 6000 for 3dmark2k1 latest build.
tbird 750

I just got 15,068 points in 3DMard2001SE (330) but that's with my MSI GeForce4-Ti4400 (275/275) oc'ed to 330/320.

I get around 11000, FIRSTCOMPUTER in sig.

 

[Schadenfroh]

i get an 11000, i have a 1700 that is not overclocked and a 4200, check my sig for specs

 

[arkcom]

I just scored 6324 underclocked to 250/598. thats 1000 higher than my oced score?!?!

 

[shock311]

i got about 12010 by slightly overclocking my msi 4200ti 128mb

 

[CraigRT]

I got 12,500 ish with my 4200 and now I am getting 15,500 ish with my 9700 Pro.

I got 10,960 first crack and little over 11,000 2nd try. So 11,000 with my 4200 128 MB 8x.

I also run a 2500 barton stock at 1.8 166FSB. Front side bus speeds make up much of the difference in benchmark scores. People who have their FSB clocked over the 166 barrier normally have over 12,000 points.
