Nice! hah, alright on 3dmark01 i got a 7845. With the old card i had a 1403.... haha. K im going to do 3dmark03 now. I played Counter Strike i have 85 FPS constant, but i dont know how to make it higher, is it the refresh rate. The FPS drops to 42.5 when theres 5 smokes on the screen. Great, easy installation did the instructions loot told me. CS:Source Stress test said i had 41 FPS and i had AA and AF at 4x with everything on high.

1672 on 3dmark03, im gonna do aquamark, 3dmark05, and excess XS.

on test 1 for XS GL, i got 2953, on test 2 4060, test 3 i got 2278, and 4798 on the 3rd test. I did everytest. Hope these are decent scores!!

that might be about right for 3dmark03...my geforce 4 ti 4200 used to get around 1500 in 3dmark03 with my intel pentium 4 2.66ghz cpu. More importantly...how does the new card work in your games?

[ekloot1978]

the excess XS benchmark I'm not familiar with unfortunately so I don't know what are good scores for that one...maybe somebody else knows.

Oh, and the reason why your framerate tops out at 85 in counterstrike is probably because vsync is on in the nvidia control panel or in the game settings (most likely in the game settings...and in the old counterstrike I think this setting is hidden somewhere...can't remember)...I'm assuming your refresh rate is set to 85...am I correct? And if your system encounters a part of the game where it can't push out a framerate of 85...it will automatically drop to half of your refresh rate with vsync on...which explains your drop to 41 fps...roughly. If you turn off vsync you may get framerates higher than 85 sometimes and the framerate won't drop in half when the action gets heavy...but you might also get some graphic tearing on the screen which is very annoying to some people...so that's your preference. I have vsync on in some games and not in others...just depends. Sounds like the card is giving you some decent performance though so that's great...congratulations!

Half life 2 is so amazing, i put everything on high, and for source,i put everything that was reccommended they run soooooo well!!!! witht my integrated card itwouldnt even connect because my card didnt handle it. Half life 2 is such a good gmae. I fixed CS, i get like 100 straight FPS. Great card RECCOMMENDED! This card works great with Doom 3 and Guild Wars! Diablo and Warcraft are amazing as well. Thanks loot.

[ekloot1978]

No problem...I'm glad I could help you out. And that's great that everything is working so well. Maybe this thread will help some other people out there with no agp slot as well. Congratulations! :)

Had a Look at an Aopen Catalogue, Their 5700LE implementation Runs @ 700/750mhz. That's Fast!! Should Be Good. :)
