nah, my CPU is 2ghz (2600 means it's "supposed" to be as fast as an old school Athlon would be at 2.6ghz). the FSB is not the clock speed. i think the FSB on DarthInsinuate's PC is prolly 200mhz. plus he's using a video card that's older than the original GeForce.

Abu is running his CPU with a pretty good overclock at 2.6ghz, but i'm not sure if his video card is supposed to get a worse score than mine, or if he just didn't get his settings right before running the test. Abu's card would definitely spank mine in 3DMark 2003 though, because he can run the DirectX 9 hardware tests and i can't.

tips for getting a proper 3DMark score: you should reboot, shut down as many unnecessary programs as possible, and go into display properties and switch all of the Direct3D settings to favor speed instead of quality. and when you run 3DMark, don't adjust any of the settings inside the test-- people compare scores by running the test with default settings (no adjustments).

far more (and faster) memory and a far better graphics card - the TNT2 can't run Game 4, the bump mapping tests, or the pixel shader tests

I put all of my setting to favor performance instead of quality in the Nvidia manager thing...it lowered my score 10 points...?? im gona overclock a lil and see if i can improve
