    NS, that first picture you posted - isn't that one of the benchmark utilities Toms Hardware uses when the pit Intel against AMD?

    AHAHAHAHAHA, that was a great little mistake NS :D:D

    unfortunately that image seems to be more representative of whats happening with my system and AquaMark/3Dmark.... :(

    i dont know what exactly that should look like for an athlon system, but assuming you're running dual channel i would assume the memory score on your system and my pee4 should be pretty similar, in which case you should be getting about 9000... everything else is peachy

    -- i take that score back. i looked at some comparable published scores from futuremark, looks like you should have 4500-5000... still a bit low

    however at this point, it doesn't seem like anything is performing DRASTICALLY underpar, i'd pin it on a gfx problem

    Er..... yeah.... :p

    That first picture is one of the Characters from the Rejected video and I was editing a picture earlier to make it fit as a backdrop on my PDA :)

    Suppose it could be ABM2003 (AnusBleedingMark 2003)....

    course I got the pro version and if you crank everything up to max...1600x1200 etc...I can hit 3.2 FPS!!! Woot. But anyway....standard results attached.

    Secondary Rig listed in my sig (with Omega Cat 3.7's):
    CPU Score: 5371
    GFX Score: 3960
    AquaMark Score: 28763

    High Particle Count, Large-Scale Vegetation Rendering, and Massive Overdraw really brought my Radeon 9500 Pro to its knees with less than 20 FPS in each category...

    Of course the Radeon 7500 in The Girl's PC was pulling 1.6 FPS in Dynamic Occlusion Culling... the Radeon 9500 Pro got 48.28 FPS there...

    Here's the link to my score page:
    http://arc.aquamark3.com/arc/arc_view.php?runID=1237886018

    //edit:
    Raised the OC on my Processor, and OC'd the Video Card through software to 310MHz/290MHz (I thought the Radeon 9500 Pro couldn't be OC'd without BIOS update? Well it apparently did...)
    CPU Score: 6635
    GFX Score: 4413
    AquaMark Score: 33122

    I pulled an extra 15,000 upgrading from the Ti 4200 to a 9700 Pro at default speeds (don't plan to OC it much, but I might just a bit. Heh)

    Keto, do you know how hot that OC makes your 9700 Pro?

    Actually, no I don't - have no temp monitoring on it. It's NOT a great OC card, those #'s are just about max - 360+ core or 325+ mem give me artifacts and/or lockups. I know ATI's and later revisions (mine's 1.0) get much better core clocks, 400ish isn't abnormal. It does have a 60mm fan in place of the stock cooler, which died. I'd like to cool it better and see what it can do but I'm scared to take the shim off around the core, it's REALLY on there good. Maybe when I next upgrade (spring?) I'll get brave and hack it off.

    Actually, I'm running the Omega 2.4.74a drivers. Come to think of it, I've read somewhere that the Omegas supposedly render better quality, but that benchmarking scores fall. As far as the soft mod goes, Windows and 3DMark03 indicate the card to be a "9700 Pro". Hmm.
    My 9700np is also identified as a pro everywhere.
    I believe all non-pro's are detected as pro.

    Well here is my score.
    Bench was performed on the system listed below.
    The Radeon 9700np is running at 300/300.
    I am going to try the test again tomorrow I have quite a lot of processes running in the background.

    I thought my score was good for a budget system. I know I need to upgrade my CPU/GPU and I'd like a gig of ram, but for what I have, you have to admit is a good score.

    I think you're doing alright with that score, Creep... the thing says that 7K and above can run current games at Medium detail settings.
