Default CPU/GPU settings:

OverClocked CPU/GPU settings:

Most of the scores are made @ 1280x1024, 1280x800 or 1280x720. The systems are all fitted with two 3870 CrossFireX but some have Raid 0/1 some not!

Sadly I have not for every score a confermation links and this is where I need youre help to make this comparison even better!


I'll update this list to ceep it up to date If you want i can also add Vantage scores but for this I need some (or scores from other comparisons)

Right now I listed the highest score I found but when I'll have more and you want it, I'll add an average score or the lowest and highest score (wich I would prefer)

If I named youre score and you don't want that ... just say that and I'll remove it if you want to be named say it, too

I hope this can help you to decide wich CPU you should buy or update to!

For the Extreme processors, it depends on what the multipliers are set to. A stock M17 with an X9100 would not be scoring 15k; it's more like 13.9k

[pumaro]

BTW is your score what you got when you ran the 3dMark or was it a # AW gave you with your system?

[Axman]

that qx9300 is my score on 7. i get around the same on vista 64 as well.

Ok I'll correct the W7 propaganda

The best score I got! AW scored exactly 11100

Just post youre CPU (if you have 2x3870 you can add infos but you don't have to if not post this pls) and the 3DMark06 score, if possible with link.

I'll update this list to ceep it up to date If you want i can also add Vantage scores but for this I need some (or scores from other comparisons)

[tanamerra]

My best score was 13,999. CPU not overclocked but did disable some background stuff.

[Axman]

i just broke 17k
