Just decided to run 3DMark2001SE for fun on my main (yes main) computer. 1737 3DMarks! Oh yeah!

Wonder how low it can go...0?
 
There are people who browse these forums with sub 300Mhz machines with sub 8MB graphics chips. To claim you have the worst system here with an Athlon XP 1800+ is both shallow and pedantic.
 
Man, I think I might be able to find the ole Pentium, with a whopping 200MHz. Well, I think that IS gone, but yeah, if your compy isnt at least an old Duron, this is a crazy claim to make. That said, I can whip out a Duron 1300MHz, integrated graphics and all. methinks that wont score too high.

Fine...I was bored....but my Dell XPS truly gets those scores.
it's an xps m200s (200 Mhz P1 ATI 16mb graphics)
giving out free money 🙂

Edit: I mean the sub-10 3DMark2001 score. It could barely install the program
 
i used to see plenty of PC that barely could make 200-300 3dmarks...in early 2002, most were celerons or durons with intergrated video and SDram, we used to sell them for around au$1000 as office pc's, I have a K6-3 550 that can score over 2500 3dmarks at 1024x768x32

Not that bad. I was getting around 1400-1500 on my 1.4ghz tbird with a voodoo3, around twice that with a geforce 3 ti 200.
 
I think the worse 3dmark01 score would probably come from my old Pentium 66mhz machine. Too bad it no worky right now.
 
If i still had my 486 dx2 66, i might have tried running it on that, lol... i wonder if it had enough HDD space to even install it 😛
Too bad i chucked it 2 months ago 🙁
 
back in 2001 when i got an upgrade from my 200MHz system that had 92mb or ram and a voodoo3 <---- badass Pentium box 🙂 i got a Duron 700MHz w/ 64mb of PC100 and a TNT2 m64, IIRC that box scored ine the low 600 range.
