CPU BRAND/CHIPSET BRAND vs GPUS Benchmarking Thread!

[MUYA]

Basically, this thread is for nV News members to contribute their benches so we can gauge performance of a 3D cards in different CPU/chipset environments. This will help us investigate the effects of a certain CPU or even chipset brand or even motherboard brand on the performance of a 3D card. There are many permutations we can get into.

What I intend to do is collect a list of benchmarks from game whether its by using in-game benchmarks or FRAPS at a standard resolution and IQ settings.

Average FPS, Minimum FPS and Maximum FPS.

The settings are, 1680 by 1050 (or 1600 by 1200), 1280 by 1024, 1900 by 1200 by default. This gauges whether CPU has an effect at high resolutions with maximum IQ settings

IQ settings are High quality settings in 3d cards driver panel.

All in-game settings maxed.

No vsync on.

State CPU clock - overclocked or not.

State 3D card clock - overclocked or not

State driver version

Multiple CPU clock are welcome.

Games to be used to compile charts/tables will be;

Fear, Stalker, Supreme Commander, Oblivion for the time being....

I'll put up some numbers as soon as I can get these temps in my rig under control. My new case should be here Friday. Afterwards I'll post some results. I'm hoping to get this Opty to 3GHz.

Also, MUYA, do you not want SLi scores?

Oh, alrighty then. Turns out my new case wont arrive till next Tuesday night. So I'll have everything installed by Wednesday (lucky me I have next Wednesday off ). I'll post scores of everything stock with a single card, everything stock with SLi, everything OC'd with a single card, and everything OC'd with SLi. That should suffice, I'd think.
