Yo! Wussup! Your 2001 score wasn't that bad. The cpu will hold back the score a bit, but not too much... that's about in line with the GF2 MX score, so you're were you're supposed to be...

6213 would be a bit high, then I'd be worried ;)

It's a bit low... it's probably the slow processor.

How can I enable this?

[Zuck Gou :)]

You can't

Your video card doesn't support it.

(8500 and GF3 are the only cards that do)

[]-[itman]

Your card doesn't have hardware support for those tests. Only the Geforce3's and Radeon8500 have support for those tests.

hey Zuck? What's a good way to squeeze some power from me Radeon?

[Yodums]

Overclock it..

Thanks for the tip. How? Powerstrip or radeontweeker?

[Zuck Gou :)]

Your choice, I personally like Radeon Tweaker (or Riva Tweaker is good too )

But alot of people love PS, both will do the job.

(if your not running XP, I suggest Radeon Tweaker, you'll find it off a search off google, Radtweaker has problems on XP)

i dunno for PCI cards, but i got 1200 with a Rage Fury Pro? shouldnt a radeon beat that, or is that because its PCI, i though radeon sdrs should hit like 2000?

I used Radeon Tweeker, and got 901 YIPPY!!!

*Should I go back to Direct X 8.0?

its your cpu..i belive it simply cannot give teh card what it wants..bandwith...stay with 8.1..and get latest drivers (unless in Win2k) then go get the ones from pinkys site.

Hey pinky I have gotin my cpu up 622mhz runs 3dmark2000 nicely ( ran it several times and worked good) but 3dmark2k1 is making my computer restart in the middle of it...got figur that one out.

RESULTS:

Radeon Tweeker - 901

Powerstrip - 911 :burn:

I didn't want to start another thread, so here goes...

After I installed PowerStrip the Radeon 32MB SDR said 164/164, I tried screwing with it and got it up to 171/171 before the screen gets "fuzzy", I see that some of you guys get 194/194...HOW DO YOU DO IT???
