3DMark 11/Vantage Scores thread! (Benchmark Thread #3)

[wolfram23]

With the Unigene and Cinebench threads, I figured we might as well round it out with the 3DMark thread. You can do either Vantage or 11, or both, doesn't really matter. Just download and run at default Performance settings. Screenshots are great as we can see the results right here, but certainly feel free to post the online link as well (example: http://3dmark.com/3dm11/526616).

1) Download 3DMark Vantage (basic edition) : http://www.3dmark.com/3dmarkvantage/
2) Download 3DMark 11 (basic edition) : http://www.3dmark.com/3dmark11/

3) Run tests

4) Save results (print screen -> paste into Paint ->Crop/save)
5) Upload results to photobucket or imgur or imageshack
6) Post results!

Feel free to run stock, daily overclock, and max overclock results! Or just one of them... doesn't matter! I think we'll have some great results spanning 3 or more generations of great cards so it could be really interesting.

The biggest issue I had with all the reviews is the lopsided setups. AMD supported faster memory for a reason. granted it may cost slightly more (paid $40 instead of $25), but its permanently faster memory, even if you upgrade the cpu again, you still have the faster memory.

A well balanced system is only as slow as the slowest component. Eventually I will get an SSD, but thats really only load times.

Edit : lol, just did a search for similar setups, mine is the highest score. How many people around use 4x 160gb drives in a raid 0? I didn't even oc the gpus, but they are PC+ stock at 940 mhz.

Have you posted pic's of your machine yet?

 

[earl45]

Fair enough

I won't beat a dead horse.

I'm waiting to get a 2nd lightning before I put pics up

We pretty much have the same setup, so i'm looking forward to seeing the differences between the two.

I was checking the MSI Lighting cards out, their very nice cards I just don't like the warranty at all.

Here it is Have OCed the 7970 since, stable at 1100 core/1600 mem, but too lazy to re-run atm that i5-2500k is what's keeping me back anyway

I have not been able to get 3dmark11 to load for the last month. I just finished reinstalling my OS on a RAID 0 and after reinstalling 3dmark11 it still will not load. I can click on the damn icon over and over again and I don't even get an error. WTH? I did install .net framework 4.0 with no luck. Not sure why it stopped working in the first place.

^try at stock settings

Well go ahead and laugh, I know these benchies are not that great.

For reference, the 6950 has a flash, and is running with the unlocked shaders at 930/1400. The 2500K is overclocked at 4.2 with no voltage increase (seems to run stable, could run prime95 for hours, but dunno)

I SHOULD probably get matching RAM sticks as well. Didn't know they were running that slow.

I do have a few other computers I'd like to bench (you can see them under my config) but they are all at DX10 right now.

And I still have to turn down settings in a lot of games with 3D Vision.

 

[Deemo13]

Ok just made a Photobucket for this, so forgive me if I didn't do this right. I feel like my computer is under par.

EDIT: Alright got it, but sorry if you can't read it. Its a little tiny.

 

[dj_crossbones]

Nice little increase with the 680, will post next year when I am out of debt for this card and can get my second.

 

[amuffin]

Bringing this back....
1ghz GTX 560ti 448 Cores!
Extreme: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/4414013
Performance: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/4417459
Payed $150 for the card and $37 for the cooler...

 

[king smp]

hmm I have to do a run to see how close I can get to 560Ti 448
obviously you are going to beat my 6870 but should be interesting to see

BTW freaking awesome bang for buck upgrade
