Opensuse 11.1 and yes, CPU a bit overclocked Old athlon 2800 XP...

But system is rock solid !

2kailed: this test stresses your hardware much more than all other applications so such failures are quite expected.

Try to rerun the test with normal clocks.

Shutdown

After the last stage..

I can play openGL games (native or emulated with cedega/wine) for hours without issue...
I can compile kernel without issue too...

@artem:
well, after a memtest run, replaced one memory bank, lowered memory timings and re-overclocked the CPU.. no more error !

Results
Linux - OpenGL: 14.3 / 360 ( using 1 core only at 100% )
Linux + WINE - OpenGL: 6.5 / 164 ( using 1 core only at ~50%, while X.org uses ~50% of that core)
Linux + WINE - Direct3D9: shaders are corrupted, no reflection, tints of green everywhere
Windows - OpenGL: 14.1 / 354 ( using 2 cores at ~90% each )
Windows - Direct3D9: 5.4 / 137 ( using 1 core only at ~14-20%, and at ~40% in tests 6&7 )

strange results

Really bad results. Caused because of powermizer bug. I have been stuck with this card that is never reaching 3D-clocks because of this stupid bug in the NVIDIA-drivers for almost half a year now.

my results, i was lazy and this was with compiz running and some other stuff going like VLC playing a movie. also, the CPU flags are incorrect do to not picked up motherboard overclock settings correctly, the Q6600 is clocked at 3.2Ghz

Since this is the *Linux* nVidia board, I think further test results should be restricted to *Linux* runs unless you want to compare the results between OSes.

[artem]

At least under Windows we could require using OpenGL mode for testing.

However I bet that OpenGL in Windows and in Linux may have very different results - I remember several years ago there was a comparison of Quake 3 under (probably) Windows 2000 and Linux, and Linux was almost two times faster.

Anyway, please run ./fullscreen_1280x1024.sh for testing as with custom resolutions it's impossible to compare the results.
