I got 1772 3D Marks with

Gigabyte GA-7DX 1.2 Axia Athlon
256 mb 2100 DDR Ram
23 mb Geforce II Deluxe
Win2K Pro SP2

Any good?

Not bad, but I think it should be better. I use a Dual P3 @940Mhz 1GB RAM PC133 with a Suma Platinum SE Geforce 2 GTS (DX8 / Detonator V.12.0) on Win2k and get 29xx on 3Dmark2001. Although it's a dual system I did the test on, the benchmark score will not benefit from the 2nd processor since 3DMark only utilizes 1 processor.


Before using the GTS on the dual system, I used a Leadtek Geforce 256DDR Rev. B with DX8 / Detonator V.12.0 on Win2k and got 1700's.

The reason I say that you should see better score is that you have a faster processor than my dual CPU system. My T-Bird @ 1.4Ghz 384MB PC-133 with Garnet GTS (DX8 / Detonator V.12.0) on Win2k scores 4350 on 3Dmark2001.

3DMark scores are effected mostly by CPU clock speed and video card speed... And better scores can be seen on Win98 Vs. Win2k...

Ok, I re-installed Win2K SP2 DX8a with the 11 denonator drivers and got

3289 3D marks...

ah much better.

I guess it was because I had a Radeon VE installed in my system before....

What is the "default" score that you can get with a GeForce mx in 3dmark2001?

This is my system:

Thunderbird 1.2
Gigabyte 7zx-1 m/b
256 PC133 Ram
20gb hd
Elsa GeForce mx400 64mb
Sound Blaster Live
dvd/cdrw Toshiba combo
etc..

I get 3dmark2001:

1024x768x32 the default test: 2300 3dmarks
800x600x32 : 3269

Are these scores right or can I increase them a little?

Hey eagle1. If u have a Geforce MX card, u should get a score around 2000 to 2500 without any overclocking. However if u try different drivers and do some overcloking. U probably can get higher score. Go to this website http://www.gamers-ammo.com/ to get the latest detenator drivers.
Try 10.80 or 12.41 if u using Win 98. 12.41 works fine for my WIN ME. Install the VIA 4 in 1 if u have a VIA motherboard. It helps a lot too.
At the gammer ammo website, under tweak files, get the NVMAX , or Powerstrip for overclocking ur card. I'm using Leadtek Geforce2 MX card and I was managed to increase my core to 200 and memory 200. Try go slowly...like 3-5 everytime. If ur system crash or lockup, just reboot machine and bring it back a little bit. U should see a better improvement after then.

Hey AndreRIO, I think your score is quite low (even lower than mine.?/?) for your system. Try tweaking it a little bit. I have almost the same system as you with the same videocard and I get 23003dmarks.?.

3DMark 2001 doesn't even work on my comp, and I can't get over 2000 3DMarks on 3DMark 99 normal.

So think about that when you whine how "bad" your 2000+ scores on 3DMark 2001 are ;/

Imperion1, I have 3DMark 99 installed on Win98 and 3DMark 2001 installed on Win2k, so it's not in Win2k's registry.
I've had every 3DMark installed on Win98 with no problems.

3DMark 2001 doesn't work because I don't have enough memory.

3dmark 2001 1024 x 768 32 bit = 2596

with the new drivers i achieved almost 500 more 3dmarks. hard to believe but true. i just wish the mobo wasnt such of a bottleneck. i think that 2596 is a respectable score on a bx chipset board.

the yamminator

is gets better. o/ced the video card to a 220 bus speed and the score went up to 2666.

As you may all know already, it doesn't matter if you have dual 1Ghz processors when running 3DMark benchmarks. It doesn't mean it's gonna be a 1+1=2Ghz system. Because 3DMark only utilizes a single processor, it would be the same as benchmarking a 1Ghz system even if you have dual 1Ghz processors...

HEY! Post your 3dmark 2001 scores here!
http://www.sysopt.com/ocdatabase.html

You don't have to have your PC overclocked to submit results. Soon, I will be adding a benchmark database to the site that will make use of the data you submit to the OC database.

NDC.. It's been a while since I posted my score on my dual PIII... It's flattering to hear from you that I got a good score on my MX200 card.. Thanks.. Well to tell you the truth I did get that score and I was overwhelmed when I found out that most of the people here has a lower score than I have (on the same card however) and then I saw some scores from a better class videocard with almost the same as mine... well to cut to the chase, I'll be posting my score as soon as I get a website that would let me post an image... http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif


Oopppss... forgot to mention that my score was from 3DMark2000..... I think I made a mistake on my last post (before this)...

I have a Thunderbird 1.2 GHz
256 mb DDR 2100
and a crappy budget Hercules Prophet 4500.

My mark score is only 2222

I saw people with geforce2 mx and similar systems getting 1200 marks more! Is this all due to my crappy video card or becaus of something else?

Hey all
After seeing some of the 3dmark scores here im thinking something isnt quite right with my machine.
I only got a score of 1854.
My specs are as follows

Athlon 1.2c
Asus A7A266 MB
384 meg PC133
Hercules 3d Prophet Geforce 2 MX 32MEG
3D Prophet drivers vers 4.12
30 gig WD 7200rpm ATA100 HDD

I see scores form 2000 up to 4000 so what can i do that will make such a difference???

Cheers

Hiya Folks,

I was doing some benchmarkin, this morning, here are my results.

First, my system:

Abit VH6-2 mobo (via chipset)
Pentium 3 1Ghz 133FSB
256 MB PC133 SDRAM
Hercules 3D Prophet II mx Dual Display (Geforce 2 mx)
IBM 45 GB ATA/100 7200 RPM HDD
SB Live!

Windows 98 Second Edition
latest VIA 4 in 1 drivers

First test was the latest offical Nvidia Reference Drivers v12.41. Done at default settings, after a fresh reboot. 3 benchmarks, one immidately after another.

Results:

First time: 2257
Second time: 2272
Third time: 2239

Not too shabby, considering the MX is a lower-end card by today's standards.

Curious as to how the latest Hercules driver compares (basically Hercules' own modifed version of the Detonator drivers) I switched to that, and tried again.

Same settings, another fresh reboot, 3 times in a row etc.

Results:

First Time: 2262
Second Time: 2267
Third Time: 2265

I was suprised to see how close the three results were. Anyways, I guess there isn't much of a difference between Hercules' and nvidia's own; I'll stick with hercules' for now.


I should recieve my 256 MB of ram that I ordered tommorrow, for a total of 512. I'm curious to see if that will affect the scores at all.
