SickBeast Marks© are the new Rating System of choice!

[Matt2]

Also, pixel shaders dont = pipelines, so I think your X1900XT Sickbeast score is a bit inflated.

Lemme guess. A patented system to allow you to win?

Darn, my poor 6800GS only gets 3.52 million SickBeast marks. Oh well. I guess I'll survive.

510x24x625 7800GTX.

I think you have a problem when comparing X1800 with X1900. This benchmark clearly only works for 1:1 pipeline: Pixelshader cards.

Maybe X1900 should multiply with 1.3

 

[xtknight]

eVGA 7800GT
445 * 20 * 535 = 4761500

But what are pipelines? Shaders? TMUs? ALUs? ROPs?

 

[biostud]

Maybe it should be: core clockspeed x (Shaders + TMU +ALU + ROP) x memory speed

to compaire cards with 256-bit memory controller.

I only get 1.04 million Sickbeast Marks

What are these "pipes" you speak of? Do I have 48 or 16? Or somewhere in between.... ?

605*24*940*2 = my result

If my 512MB GTX's do a third of that, I'd say you mismathed somewhere.

 

[Hail The Brain Slug]

Ronin, I'm afraid you mismathed. You get 27,297,600 SickBeast Marks.

My 7800 GTX gets 8,400,000 at 500/1400

You're missing a 7 in your score somewheres

 

[aznrice54]

With my X800 at 540/590, I get 5,097,600 SickBeast Marks©!!!

Therefore, I can outperform a 7800 GT, and conclude that this system is the most accurate ever devised.

You can't multiply by 2 to get an SLI result.

You need to wait for SickBeast Mark© 2006 version 1.1.

If you're lucky you'll get a developer build. It won't favour nVidia though, and it won't be a part of TWIMTBP.

445054.5 - quite crappily as my 9700 mobility has only 4 pipelines and a really slow RAM clock - that might even be doubled there, I don't know.

Anyway, how are you going to deal with a unified shader system if there is no such thing as a "pipeline" anymore??

Also the above noted: RAM interface width, vertext shaders, quantity of ram, mismatch between RAM and core creating bottlenecks (i.e. Geforce4 MX 440 with 512MB 1500MHz ram.. hey, it could happen!) might mess up your system.

 

[linkgoron]

Meh, The best Rating system is DosMark. It tests your FPS in MSDOS.
FPS*1000.
I've got 1000 DosMarks

 

[potato28]

Apparently I get over 448000 SickBeast marks on my 6600GT SLi system...

 

[Raduque]

2,074,320 on my 6800OC @ 402/430
1,470,000 at stock.


If I did the match right.

 

[bunker]

woohoo, my 9700 pro gets 806,000 SickBeast Marks© !!

 

[Crescent13]

Problem with that system, have you forgotten about memory totally? a 256MB Card will outpeform a 128MB Card, and a card with a 256-bit memory interface will be faster than a card with a 128bit interface at the same clock speed.

Your system also predicts that an X1900XTX and an X1800XT will have the same performance if I'm not mistaken....

Hell No!!! The 1900 has 48 shaders, therefore it gets three TIMES the beastmarks as an X1800!!!! :laugh:

Oh and I have 4.65 million beatmarks

Well I'll be damned...must have crossed my eyes when looking at calc LOL.

And who wants a benchmark that is biased to once manufacturer?

 

[JujuFish]

325*4*200 = 260,000 Marks

I think it's time to upgrade.

 

[Munky]

A somewhat more accurate benchmark would be:

(core clock * (texture units + pixel shaders)/2 + mem clock * (bus width/16)) / 500
I divide by 500 to give the number some meaning

for example:
x1900xtx = (650 * (16+48)/2 + 775 * (256/16)) / 500 = 66.4
7800gtx512 = ((550 * 24) + 850 * (256/16)) / 500 = 52.4
x850xtpe = ((540 * 16) + 590 * (256/16)) / 500 = 36.16
6600gt = ((500 * 8) + 500 * (128/16)) / 500 = 16

This way the numbers are at least somewhat representaive of the cards' performance in some theoretical game at some undetermined settings.
