POST YOUR 3DMARK2001 SCORES!!!!

**Mr. Underhill** · 03-31-2003, 12:06 PM

Perhaps this isn't the appropriate forum to ask this question, but considering that it pertains to Benchmarking for 3DMark2001SE, I'll take a shot...

When people refer to "BIOS mod" or "THE" Bios mod, to what are they referring, specifically?

I'm guessing there's more than setting the AGP aperature and enabling fast writes.... Anyone care to enlighten me?

Thanks.

The BIOS mod is for the r9500 card to turn it into a r9700

We are referring to BIOS tweaks generally, which as you thought, are the likes of AGP appature, Fast writes, SBA etc

Thanks, Jakk.

Unfortunately, you lost me at SBA and etc. I know about only a few bios tweaks. Clearly there are more. Could you direct me to a resource for learning about this stuff?

Congratulations on breaking the 20,000 Mark! Gee I don't think I'll post my new score..... 10,660 well not as impressive, but still better tha some of my old 10,200 to 10,300 scores, so I do understand some of what it takes to get there. Congratulations again.

Does anyone actually read this post when there are 1000 other posts in the thread?

**pandaz3** · 04-26-2003, 10:45 PM

Yes

**Ammok** · 04-27-2003, 04:36 AM

Just one or two read these posts, ok then, maybe a few more.

I would like to know if anyone has a 3D2001 mark for an FX5200? Just to see what it does.

**Ammok** · 04-27-2003, 04:37 AM

PS.

I am persuading a freind to purchase one soon, so should be able to post a score myself in a couple of weeks or so.

**pandaz3** · 04-27-2003, 08:05 AM

From the few reviews I have read I think it will be in the 6000 to 8000 range for a 266FSB XP 2100+ or a P4 2.4 machine, its pretty hard to say since there are many equipment variables, but It should perform as well or better than an MX 4400. It doesn't seem like a great card in the overall scheme, but in the lower end value, it might be a very good choice. Not enough people posting results anywhere yet. Just a thought at the end of the post... have you visited the Futuremark site and looked for 5200 scores?

**Ammok** · 04-27-2003, 10:56 AM

Nope, never even thought of that!!! If it performs better than an mx he will will be well chuffed, he is currently on SiS chip that wont play IGI one and now his mum has bought him Vietcong and IGI Covert Strike, and he got Bob Hope of playing either, so I havwe suggested an Xp2500 plus a decent-ish graphics card, ti4200 outta budget range at the mo, and he won't upgrade again for a couple or three years after this, he's got a good wife hwho makes sure he watches his money.
