That's what liquid nitrogen is good for. :p

:p :D

BTW, isn't it nice to hace a 10 GHz FSB?? :cool:

I notice how neither one of those have benchmark results after Game 4 -Nature...

[ALobpreis]

Yeah, that's very common in top results. I don't know why. Someday I will test if the score is higher without those tests. Or maybe they can o/c higher because those tests crashes their computer... who knows.

[thcdru2k]

those scores aren't necesary..i think they just want to quickly run the test again, with tweaked settings, or to get the highest score possible since 3dmark score fluxuates.

These 2.4 ghz Pentium 4s sure are great overclockers :)

But how does one go about ordering 10 litres of liquid nitrogen? Don't you need permits and stuff for that?

I've tested it some time ago, and it seems the test past the Nature one are useless!! The score doesn't seem to change! I really don't know why are them there, and why they don't affect the score... :confused:

[slickfloater]

*yawn* the high score for 3D2k1 is 21800 and the second highest 21500, the first is an overclocked 4.1 GHz P4 and the second is an overclocked Thorughbred at 2.8 GHz. Both systems use specially cooled CPUs/Radeon 9700's. The P4 system radeon has higher vid card core and mem clocks... just shows AMD can hang with anything out there.

[poursoul]

they are just posting thier systems, if you want to post your marks go ahead. Otherwise quit trolling, troll.

[marqmajere]

Man. I kicked the crap outta those chumps in everything past the nature test. My rig is ubah!:D

[slickfloater]

Why hello there, nice to meet you. Neither of those marks
belonged to me I just was under the impression the original poster thought 20000 was the high for 3DMark2k1, it didn't seem to me the score was his. Whatever. I don't think I'm going to post here again.

[The Baron]

It's not my system... heh.

But look at the original post date of this thread--OCTOBER! Yes. October. 3 months ago.

Clues = Good.

[ALobpreis]

Check regulary the hall of fame (http://www.futuremark.com/community/halloffame/) to see the highest scores.
Today, the highest is 22103 (http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=5300380).

Crashing big time. ;)

[Sazar]

the score for 3dmark2001 is calculated thus

game 1 low/high
game 2 low/high
game 3 low/high
game 4 = nature...

the nature score has a higher weighting percentage wise than the other 6 tests mainly because it stresses the VIDEO card more...per my understanding..

since the other tests have absolutely NO bearing on the 3dmarks obtained there is absolutely NO reason for people who have oc'd their cards solely for the purpose of ONE run to stress it further by running meaningless tests :)

not to mention its a waste of time.. who really will sit through that crud ?

hence you will find most of the top scores out there do not have any tests run after game 4...

Holy crap, you got that with just 256MB onboard RAM?

My new system should do well then. Problem is finding the money for it. :(

Here's what I plan to buy:

Athlon XP 2400+
GeForce4 TI4800SE
1.2GB PC3200 DDR RAM
Dual 100GB RAID 0 drives

I'd love to see the benchmarks on a system like that.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember hearing the lower the ram count (being reasonable though no less than 256MB) the better 3dmark ran.
