Pathetic score in 3dmark03, need help.

[M Powered]

I just ran the 3dmark03 and got a whooping 1779 marks.

My system specs are:

P4 @ 2.8ghz
512DDR
GForce 4 TI 4600 w/ 52.16
Win XP


Can someone please tell me what is wrong?

I ran the test with all the AA set to off.

Did you make sure there was nothing running in the background? Are you running the card at AGP 4x or 8x? If you are only running it at 1x or 2x it may hurt performance.

Your score's perfectly normal. 3dmark03 taxes directx8 cards pretty badly.

Yup; It's also very poor at judging the performance of your entire machine becuase it relies almost entirely on the speed of your graphics card. Download 3DMark 2001SE build 330 and see what you get, :)

Yup, that's a normal score for a TI4600 as this is a DX9 benchmark ;)
