Official 3DMark Vantage Benchmark Scores

[Cortexian]

Alright so since 3DMark06 is now horribly out of date and can't cope with out copious amounts of awesome hardware, we're moving onto this awesome 3DMark Vantage thread!


Guidelines:

All benchmarks are run at the default settings (load up Vantage and hit "Run Benchmark" with the "Performance" preset checked).
Post A screenshot, thumbnail, or some kind of proof (like an ORB link obtained by clicking the "Submit Score" button). Do not post large pictures, use shot tags.
Include your processor and graphics/video card model.
Always update your computer specs (http://www.modacity.net/forums/profile.php?do=extra).
Limit the spam, if its off topic it will be deleted.

Let us begin.


When posting a new score below, at the top of your post put the text "My new 3DMark Vantage Score" in size 5 Red font. Example:

But okay.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Btw, why did I get so horribly low?

[InnerGoat]

Low compared to what? Freelancer has two cards.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Freelancer's pc makes mine feel puny, :(

[Cortexian]

Also, ATI scores are WAAYY lower than NVIDIA cards in Vantage because you guys don't get the added PhysX and CUDA stuff.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Oh, that would explain alot.
If only there was a way to get the relative score (not including physx/cuda)

[Cortexian]

Oh, that would explain alot.
If only there was a way to get the relative score (not including physx/cuda)
Why?

The entire point of a benchmark program like this is to push your hardware to the max and give you a score that represents what you can do. NVIDIA cards can do things in such a way that they destroy ATI cards in benchmarks, but why should NVIDIA cards be punished for what ATI cards are lacking?

tl:dr: buy NVIDIA.

@ InnerGoatse, you requested this thread, post in it.

After that set of benchmarks I only got a 12k score, what?

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Are your temperatures fine?

Looks like the wind is too fast in the second video.

[Cortexian]

Are your temperatures fine?
Yup, nothing is overheating.

Looks like the wind is too fast in the second video.
That is what it looks like, but it's not supposed to look like that >.>

I'm going to try and revert back to my 3.0Ghz OC and see if it fixes it.

[Ganon]

Just turn the wind down

[Cortexian]

Just turn the wind down
That's not an option you can set... That's not how benchmarks work.

It's not my CPU apparently, because I set it back to it's 3.0Ghz clocks and still got the errors.

[Ganon]

That's not an option you can set... That's not how benchmarks work.

Try converting it to a .scenario and turn the magnitude down on the wind in sapien and convert back. Shouldn't be too hard.

COME ON people, someone get over 10k score at least! Or I'll have to re-run the benchmark with SLI disabled so you're not all as dominated.

[Ganon]

cant say my feelings are hurt

Also, does the 8400 handle cuda at all?
And how much of an importance is cuda in vantage?

http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=44601

tl;dr: Yes.

It's mainly the PhsX that will benefit you, not the CUDA support.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Do you think it would be a good idea to buy a 8800 (or something of that general area of preformance) as a card dedicated to phsyx/cuda?

[Cortexian]

I'd recommend 8600 series or higher, if you can get an 8800 GT for a good price I'd go with that.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Also, by how much do you think my 3dmark score would go up by?

[Cortexian]

http://service.futuremark.com/resultAnalyzer.action?resultId=1423008&resultType=19

That's what I get now that SLI is fucking with me, I'm going to try and revert to the "validated" drivers that Futuremark recommends.

@Pyong: No idea man, try it with the 8400 and estimate from there.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

I'll be posting my results in a bit.
E: How would I set the 8400 as a physx card?
E2: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121320&cm_re=9600-_-14-121-320-_-Product would that be a good physx card?

I'm not sure how you'd set the nvidia card as a dedicated PhysX card while using an ATI card as your primary. I know with nvidia-nvidia card setups you just plug the second one in, go to the nvidia control panel and enabled PhysX.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

What I find annoying is that, in settings for phsyx I am unable to set any settings for it :S
Im going to reboot atm and see what happens
Btw, lancer, what drivers should I use?
Also, I don't see an nvidia control panel...
E:
It turns out I need 177.35 to use physx on it, setting that driver up atm

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Fuck, this isn't working, if anyone has any ideas of what to do, please tell me what to do (I'm using 174.74)

[Cortexian]

190.62 are the latest drivers available for the 6-200 series cards... You're going to have to find some info on running an nvidia card as a dedicated PhysX card while using an ATI primary. I'm not actually sure if it's even possible, you might need two (or more :realsmug:) nvidia cards.

[Rook]

Nice cpu sel

your score is only higher because of intel but oh well AMD is 1/2 as cheap.

I was able to get Vantage to take my SLI enabled 3.1Ghz setup finally, the above is the result of my system at its maximum stable settings.

Disabling PhysX and SLI now to give you guys a result on that...

I guess I had a free copy of 3d Mark 06. Ive never used it. I installed and just hit run test. Whats this mean?

Also, I only have one GPU plugged in atm. What does 3d mark tell you.

It means you should go to the correct thread (http://www.modacity.net/forums/showthread.php?t=10592), you know, the one four rows down from this one at the time of your post... However, that's fairly good, my latest 3DMark06 score was around this:
http://freelancer.modacity.net/pics/computer/3DMark06_Score-Sept-15-09.jpg

3DMark06 is to old to correctly measure SLI/Crossfire systems and produce an accurate result, you need Vantage.

[paladin]

er, my b. I got the trial for vantage. Again, I only have one of my gpu's plugged in atm

I feel so antiquated, I don't even get 3000 on 06, and I can't even run Vantage...

Yet my PC can still play just about anything out there on fairly high if not maximum settings. 1280x1024 ftw!

My pc is currently ill too, damn fans are whirling and its full of dust, plus I keep bluescreening :(

I feel like I cheated. I have absolutely nothing installed on my computer now, and I gutted and cleaned every part last weekend. Id say it performs better now than when IO first put it together.

[Abdurahman]

I feel like I cheated. I have absolutely nothing installed on my computer now, and I gutted and cleaned every part last weekend. Id say it performs better now than when IO first put it together.

It's cool. Anything to get the highest score!

Also, looking at my Vantage cpu score, it looks REALLY low. I mean really low. Limited has like over 30000 cpu score and mine barely passes 9000? Why is that? And my cpu is at 3.6ghz and a phenom II. Strange. I guess Vantage really favors intel cpus then!

E: It favors NVIDIA GPUs because the physx in the drivers inflates the cpu score in vantage. Without the added physx component nvidia cards would have a much lower score.

[Cortexian]

Yup, ATI cards will pump out a higher GPU score than Nvidia cards but PhysX boosts the hell out of your CPU score since the CPU doesn't need to do the extra physics processing.

[paladin]

Are you gonna put me on your list?

[ExAm]

Goddammit, why does this require Vista? Can't it test your setup without needing to test the DX10 performance?

[paladin]

n

[ExAm]

The lazy shits certainly could have coded it with that ability.

[Dwood]

The lazy shits certainly could have coded it with that ability.

I agree. DX 9 would have been a nice added feature.

[Cortexian]

Are you gonna put me on your list?
Sorry I thought I had already added you, added!


Goddammit, why does this require Vista? Can't it test your setup without needing to test the DX10 performance?
It requires Vista because Vista is the latest OS to support DX10, it works on Windows 7 as well but since XP has no DX10 support it's not going to happen. Vantage was designed to test the new DX10 systems when it was released, 3DMark06 is the previous version for older DX9 based machines!

[paladin]

Thank you kind sir!

[Bodzilla]

get win 7 you fag exam.

I hope you realise, not everything is about benchmarks, theres other situations where performance isnt to do with time. So yes Freelancer is correct.

I updated 3DMark Vantage to version 1.0.2 today and ran the benchmark again, I think think they broke it?

P11111 3DMarks - Intel Core 2 Quad Processor Q8200 - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260


I was surprised at the low FPS I got throughout the graphics test, jumped around 20-30. The PhysX 'Crash and Burn' test was a disaster even though I'm sporting an Nvidia card as well as the latest drivers for that Card, am I missing some sort of PhysX related software I need? I'm disappointed in myself with such a low score on the very low 3DMark Vantage Trial settings.
