My 3Dmark 2001 and 2003 scores

[omar_24884]

These are my scores for 3Dmark 2001 and 2003 on their default settings:

15,496 for 2001
4,987 for 2003

I recently purchased a Dell Dimension 8300 with the new 875p motherboards.

I have P4 2.6, 800Mhz bus
512 DDR 400 ram, (2 x 256)
120 gig (7200 rpm) w/ 8mb buffer
ATI 9800np 128mb
Sound Blaster Audigy 2

And have ATI CATALYST 3.6 and Direct X 9.0b

So could anyone tell me whether these are decent scores.

Also can anyone recommend me any BIOS tools for my Video Card. Because when I received my PC the driver stated that my card was a 9800, but for some strange reason when i installed the Catalyst drivers it said 9800Pro. Is that just a software mistake or is the difference between np and pro versions only the clock speed and the immense price difference?

Well I think its just the plain ATI version, none of the fancy Sapphire or Power Colour that you can purchase. I am not ready to void my warranty by opening up the case so I cant physically see who the manufacturer is.

Using DxDiag, this is some information I got:

Name: 9800 Pro
Manufacturer: ATI Technologies
Chip Type: Radeon 9800 AGP (0x4E48)


I just enabled HyperThreading, will that slow my PC down?
