3dmark_

Haha found this small java application on the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 275 page it runs a benchmark from the page here. pretty surprised and confused how my graphics card is faster? must work normally like their benchmarks does and test ghx and machine hardware i got 19,500 with is acuarte as last time I tested I got a mark of about 18k… They must just have like a database or an avarge for hardware so my machine is way faster then average

My results..

Your current PC’s 3DMark score: 19,500
Your PC’s 3DMark score with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 275: 15,000

More results from the YouGamers.com website, I got again “19500 VirtualMarks“.

machineofdeath
(Work area shot)

Photo’s coming soon, this is my 2009 machine setup its a i7 Core based project (plan on overclocking way over the 4GHz mark), building in a custom phase change cooler into a Lian Li PC-V2010/Silverstone TJ-07 case (which my brother is helping me build) it’s going to be a monster..

Components
Intel i7 core 920 @ 3.8GHz \w Noctua NH-U12P SE1366 cooler (will get this to 4Ghz soon)
Foxconn Bloodrage X58 @ Overvolted
XFX 9800GX2 XXX @ 700MHz
Corsair Dominator DDR3 6GB Tripple Channel @ 1800MHz \w CMXAF2 Airflow
Corsair TX720w PSU

Storage
2x Samsung SSD 64GB MLC @ RAID0 – getting 190/180Mbps – HD Tune Results
3x Samsung Spinpoint F1 1TB – now I need to convert all the disc’s to a RAID5/10 setup.

Samsung 23″ P2370 ultra-slim LCD monitor
SilverStone Fortress FT01 Black
Logitech G9 Laser Mouse
Razer Lycosa Gaming Keyboard

Future Upgrades
Razer Mako 2.1
Corsair HX1000 PSU
Fatal1ty Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fata1ity Champion Series

My “Custom PC” build log < been lazy but when I start building in my Custom Phase Change cooling system (which my brother is helping me build I will start posting updates).

Geekbench: how much can you bench?

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

no not bench press! after all it is for geeks checkout this small benchmarking application x86/x64 are both supported its not 3DMark or anything but it pretty fun
http://www.primatelabs.ca/geekbench/

after you have done the benchmark(s) you can upload your stats here:
http://browse.geekbench.ca/

here is my profile and results:
http://browse.geekbench.ca/user/blackwaltz/geekbench2

Eee PC 1000 @ Stock = 886
(planning on Overcloking CPU and installing samsung SSD and 2 GBs RAM)
Dell XPS M1730 @ Stock \w 3GBs RAM = 2597
(which is very low though need to test on win7 XP is shit).
Custom Built Machine i7 CORE 920 Bloodrage MB @ Stock CPU \w 2GBs RAM = 8026
(my desktop machine as soon as I get my GBs Corsair RAM it will pump it up to 10K easy).

check for more detailed results here: http://browse.geekbench.ca/user/blackwaltz/geekbench2
