just found out that all bartons are locked....best to get the 2500+ cos the multi is locked to 11 which means that you just need to up the fsb to 200 which provided you dont get really unlucky then it should work.....that should take the price below $800

Im sure there is a way to get around the lock, there always is.

Even if it does mean using something like SPeed STrip

ur 3dmark scores look a wee bit on the low side abu_has_the_power...would of expected maybe 3000 points in 3dmark03 for that spec at least

u kidding? a p4 3.0 ghz with HT (800 FSB) and a ati radeon 9800 non-pro got only 2019. what made u think that? [/b][/quote]
well i got a 2800+ barton and a 9800pro at stock speed and im scoring 5600points...i know 2 ppl with 9600&#39;s, one a pro with a 2600+ thrA and one with a non pro with a 2800+ barton...all at stock speed the scores are about 3300 and 2700 respectivly

so for a p4 3.06 (800fsb) with a 9800 np(which is a more powerfull card than any of those 2 9600&#39;s) i would of expected more than 2019 and for what is in your sig i would expect a bit more (bout the 3000 mark)...r u testing it rite?? i.e. with AA & AF turned off

yeah, it does seem a little bit low

i&#39;ve got an athlon 2700+, 512MB ram and a 9600 pro and it scores about 3200-3300 too

3rd gen remember, hes got a 9600 non-pro (and a 2.4ghz cpu oc to 2.6) and youve got a overclocked 9600pro and a 2700+, i think it does make quite a bit of difference

well, i was talking about when it was non-oc&#39;d
plus his processor should be superior (fsb&#39;s and all that...(mine is only 333MHz))

it might just be because 3d mark 03 is so graphics card intensive...i&#39;ll run through 3d mark 01 again (or try and fine some times i did it before)

By 2500+, do you mean this one?
