3DMark 2001 score with no overclock: 8544

system:
operating system: Windows XP Professional with DirectX 9.0b
CPU: Athlon XP 2600+ (Thoroughbred - 2ghz clock speed & 333mhz FSB)
system memory: 512mb PC3200 DDR SDRAM (Dual Channel)
motherboard: Gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro (Nforce2)
video card: ATI Radeon 9000 Pro 128mb (Catalyst 3.7 drivers)

how did u get better than me? do u oc? cuz i thought radeon 9000 weren't as good as gfx 5200

and i have a better cpu (2.4 @ 2.6 p4)

how did u score higher than me?

I got 4600 yesterday but I am gonna fool around and overclock my card a bit more and see what it can do.

i think your score is lower than what you should be getting. not sure why, but i think you should be doing better than 6429.

i downloaded a brand new copy of 3DMark 2001 and it wouldn't run, so i had to patch it... but i forget exactly which patch i applied. it seems that some of the sites supposedly hosting the final release actually have an older version?

i think this is the patch that you need, though. http://www.futuremark.com/download/?...001patch.shtml
