Hi, noobie here.
My spec
i7 920 @3.8 ghz
asus ramapge ii extreme
corsair 1600 ddr3 ram
NVidia GTX 280
I've run 3DMark 05 on my computer (it's the only one I don't have to pay for) and have some results which I would like some feedback on, if you don't mind.
At stock speeds (2.66 ghz) the results are: 21548 3D Marks
: 21530 CPU Marks
When I overclock to 3.8 ghz my results are of course higher but they vary. So
@3.6 Mhz I have
Test 1: 24347 3D Marks
: 29949 CPU Marks
Test 2: 28137 3D Marks
: 29802 CPU Marks
CPU marks are fairly close, but 3D marks are very different. I closed all other applications and nothing else was running at time of test. Can anyone explain this variation? Much gratitiude.
