I'm either incredibly dumb or tired or I'm right...

You have two scores, (3DMark 2003 if you care), one is 4995 and the other is 6767... To figure out how much better the second score is, you subtract the first score from the second score. (6767-4995=1772) Then you divide 1772/6767=.261859-->26.1% Correct?

Math is soo cool, let's go party with Bill Nye.

Sure, but remember a 26 percent increase in a benchmark may not equal the same increase in your games.
It is just a synthetic benchmark.

Did you update drivers or what?

No... its 1772/4995.

Well I'm wondering because I'm comparing scores of a 9800pro overclocked and a 9600XT overclocked. I noticed a 500 point jump on the 9600XT and the 9800pro so it's like the same jump on both cards.. It also appears that the 9600XT is a very well balanced card in the sense that raising memory bandwidth doesn't substantially increase performance and neither the core speed, but raising them both produces more tangible results.. I can't remember if this is the same on the 9800pro or not, but I would believe not since there is so much bandwidth already...

Eh, problem is I'm benching the 9600XT for my sister and she plays WOW but I don't think I want to go to the effort of installing WOW on a test system...

Incredibly dumb?

\frac{1772}{4995}

youre benchmarking her card on your system then? are they identical, or are you just wasting time for the hell of it?

Well she has a P4 1.5ghz system and the benchmarks on her system are really poor so I need to know how big of a bottleneck the CPU is being.

 

[thomsbrain]

what the hell?

just divide the bigger number by the smaller number and subtract 100% to get how much larger the larger number is. like if you have 150 and 100, then you get 50%. or in other words, 150 is 150% of 100.
