My thoughts are is that if your computer does what you want it to do, then more power to you. So obviously he isnt worried about his comp being out of date, so kudos to you. (kinda off topic) But no too shabby considering your setup.

Next I have to post my wifes computer.
It's specs:
Celeron 1.7ghz @ to 2.ghz
512MB ddr 2100
gf mx 440 64 ddr
also win xp pro.
I like my setup but i realize that I need to upgrade. At the moment my bud. will not allow me to upgrade (well I can up the ram tho....I really need to)
I do turn off alot of the eye candy I mean my ram can handle it but the vid card and the cpu can't. So I turn alot of things off. It still looks alot better than consoles though!
When I get a hdd for my laptop (bought it in 2000 and did heavy gaming on it, it's also a celeron a mobile coppermine)

You haver a Celeron w/ 1GB RAM. This makes about as much sense as a Radeon 9200 w/ 256MB V-RAM. You could get a much better score by getting a better video-card.
btw., what is the score of your wifes computer?

A Sad Sad Sad Score
5500 Score
Just built a new rig for my office PC. I wasn't expecting a huge score, since I cut a few corners, but I duplicated my home gaming system with scores in the 13K + range.
New System - 3dMark 5500
Asus A7N8X-VM
2 x 256MB Samsung DDR3200
XP2400+ Tbred
MSI FX5200 8X 125MB
WD 80gb SE 7200rpm 8mb cache
Zelman Copper Flower Cooler
Game System - 3dMark 13K+
Asus A7N8X (non-deluxe)
2 x 512MB Samsung DDR2100
XP2400+ Tbred
MSI Ti4200 4X 128MB (OC'd)
WD 80gb SE 7200rpm 8mb cache
Zelman Copper Flower Cooler
I'm running XP Home on both systems with the latest updates. On the new system I downloaded the latest Nvidia chipset drivers and detonator drivers from Nvidia, but I'm not sure which ones. The older game system those drivers are slightly older and since they work very well, why mess with success
The poor score on the new system could be the drivers, but I can't imagine they would be that bad.
I believe the problem is the board. This VM version of the A7N8X is missing a lot of features and the reviews are awful, mostly relating to stability. You can't adjust anything in the Bios! There are only two Dimm slots for Ram, and they are suppose to be dual channel. The board seems stable.
I know the FX Graphics board is not a race horse, but from the reviews I have seen, it almost keeps pace with the Ti4200. So it should do much better.
One final note. Other then the (cheap version, should have gone deluxe) board being a major mistake on my part, I bought an Antec case thinking that since it came with 300W PS from Antec, it would be a great bargain. Well all the Voltages are low 11.4v, 4.6v, 1.4v on the rail. Could this be the problem? I have already ordered a new PS. I love the case!
Suggestions? I don't plan to game on this new system, but I do plan to run some photo editing software and I am a power user. So I would be happy with a score around 9K.
1500+, KR7A-Raid, 512MB DDR, GF2-MX200, WD 20GB 7200 ATA100, Sony 24/10/40 CDRW, and all the rest of the standard stuff! Not a Hot Rod, but stable and fast!

No the FX5200 doesn't keep pace with the Ti4200. Depending on which model you have you could have difficulty keeping up with the MX440.
That's what's going to be holding you back the most.

That's not what I wanted to hear
If thats true, then it makes me angry at the "hammer" for their review. Ugh!
This is a 128mb card!....and the MX440 was a [*-deleted word-*]
card to begin with.
Well, live and learn. I guess I made a bad choice on both the mother board and the graphics card. I should have known better then to rush into building a system. Leave it to Asus and Nvidia to promote new products based on old products reputation. Never thought I would buy a new Nvidia card with 128mb of ram and have it be worse then a MX440 or get a junky A7N8X motherboard. Who would have thought
I guess I will sell off the [*-deleted word-*]
and go with ATI since this is the last straw for me with Nvidia GPU. And maybe go with my old favorite Abit motherboard.

It isnt the motherboard i dont think... all the delux has is some extra features. In my case it is SATA, RAID, Voice reporter, better onboard sound... and some other things. The motherboard is just the same without some extras. It shouldnt hit the performance.
