I am going to run another test using 3D Mark 03 and want to know hwat you two have your settings on to run your tests?
I believe I usually run mine with no AA or AF on and using performance. Is this good enough for the scores to be the highest?
When benchmarking you should always reduce all mipmap detai settings etc to Max performance, while disabling AA, AF and Vsync.
Also, Porsch is your X800Pro a TIVO model, as im hearing they can be flashed out of the box to X800XT without the "etching and trace filling" trick.

okay confused lol. TIVO i guess stands for TV in video out and i am truly not sure what mine is?!?!? i got it OEM. but i did get lots of cable i dont know where to plug into lol. they look like S video cables but they have too many pin and since ive not got instruction i cant look it up. well the cable has one side the s video with too many pin then it has three cables at the other side which i am pretty sure you can plug phonos into. im not to sure what etching and trace filling is if you could explain please. and what do you mean by flashed out the box too please lol. sorry its 9.11 im a bit slow in the morning plus ive not been OCing Graphics card to anything meaningfull like ever.
My bad its the X800Pro VIVO (Video in, video out) not TIVO (TV in, video out) cards that can be flashed straight to X800XT. (If you bought a TIVO/VIVO you would know abbout it, because it would probably be plastered all over the box and advertising)
Large numbers of X800Pro's can be modded to X800XT but require you to etch into the PCB surface and join up a couple of connectors with thermally conductive paint before flashing them with an X800XT BIOS, in the case of the VIVO you dont need to do the hardware mod, from what im reading most can just be flashed to X800XT as is
--Jakk:t
ill leave as is i think. so expensive to ruin lol
Hry Jakk, mine has Tivo. How do I flash?
Needs to be VIVO AFAIK (my mistake up top), even so:

Where can I get software that will allow me to OC my ATI 9800 PRO 128? I had Omega drivers and the slider adjustment to OC was there, but it never saved my settings. Besides that, it would show a much slower clock rate then it shhold be be default. Any ideas?
THANKS!
There are a lot programs which you can use for ocing video cards like Powerstrip or Radclocker (the second one is for ATI only).Quote:

i think ati tool is the best it scans for artifacts and OCs to the max itself
I second that:tQuote:

Nascarfan-40...are you sure you have the settings on for best performance and do not use AA or AF for testing and your scores will go way up...I get those scores like yours with AA and AF on.....without they will jump to over 5000.
where exactly do you change the settings
3DMark03 Score = 11562

Great score for the GT:tQuote:

Nascarfan..just change the video card settings....for your card . it is usually the default setting... I have an Nvidia card and its under the properties/performance tab....ATI cards have a table to do this also...
ure not the champ anymore lol. and im 3rd!!Quote:

i need some gaming RAM or some more ram i only got 512 of generic lol.
I got my 6800 Ultras in today, we will see who the champ is, sorry Dozer:rQuote:

what did you have in before?
With 6800 Ultra
12312:D
I'll OC it tomorrow to see what kind of damage I can really do:t
Also I had a X800 Pro before
yeah i don't think i'll OC my system for a while now. it runs like a charm:D
nice score by the way:mad:
you are ****ting me you got an X800 pro and now a 6800 ultra already im not rich enough for this. why didnt you get the X800 XT PE. its a lot better in most test ive read.
well after upgrading the processor,the memory and the vid card I would like to know what you guys/gals think
P4 2.0A@2.36ghz
512mb PC2700
ATI 9600XT 128mb

512mb PC2100
Xtasy TI4600 128mb
3DMARK2003 build 340
score: 1187
Its a significant improvment
Makes me feel a bit better with my score..which is actually good considering I do not overclock or anything....

3D Mark 03 ( no video card AA and AF on ) program defaults at 4X AA
score : 5830 :D :cool: :t
althought in most games the difference will be smaller.Quote:

in dx8 games, the ti4600 is usually even fatser than any radeon 9600, but your new cpu is faster, so the performance could be the same as before in dx8-games.
In the majority of casers a 9600 XT (or Pro for that matter) is faster (IMO not enough to warrant the purchase though - the R9800 Pro woudl have represented better value for money)than a Ti4600, even in DX8 applications.Quote:

but you see, that the difference is not big between the ti4600 and the r9800 in dx8 games, or would you call 3fps in ut2003 and 7fps in generals big? ok, in bf1942 the differenc is a little bigger, but this is only in this one dx8 game.
about the 9600xt: if i would have the time, i would be able to find enough benchmarks, where the 9600xt is slower than the ti4600. i dont know, which is better on average, but when you compare the normal 9600, it is slower than the ti4600 in most dx8-games. if i would have the time for it, i would search for benchmarks to prove what i posted.
i have seen one benchmark of the ti4600 in hl2 (or was it doom3?), where it had even better framrates than the r980 w/ the dx8-rendering-path. and the r9800 had more fps w/ the dx8-path than w/ all dx9-paths, probably because some details require dx9.
I didnt say the gap was particular big (indeed, if you'll look above you'll see i explicitly state the fact that the gap is small), however, it is a gap none the less.Quote:

It wont have been doom 3 as it doesnt have any direct X renders (its an Open GL game - though given Nvidia's Open GL strength and the somewhat 'remarkable' nature of the preliminary D3 benchmarks, i wouldnt be suprised to see the ti4600 beating the 9600XT) and in HL2, (pre-NV40) Nvidia cards are extremely performance limited (paticularly in the full DX9/SM2.0 path)Quote:

The speed of theTi4600 in HL2 DX8 path:
http://www4.tomshardware.com/busines...f-life-03.html
is equal to that of the R9600 Pro in the [B]DX9[B] path.
In that particular game its pointless making a comparison between the two cards DX8 performance, because the 9600XT owner can enjoy it in its full DX9 goodness at the same speed a Ti4600 user gets the Dx8 experience at.
As for using benchmarks ot prove a point, they were simply the first DX8 benchmarks i found, and the only one in which the ti4600 holds a speed advantage of any kind is in WC3: Frozen Throne, and even then its less than 1FPS.

I heard somewhere that doom 3 supports HT technology is this true, does anybody know???
i only read somewhere, that there will be an amd64 version. i know, hl2 will have an amd64 version.Quote:
