amd64 crawls in 3dmark2005 CPU tests

[jlo56]

im using a AMD64 3400 1mb CH with 1gig memory and X800XTPE
i notice the CPU tests of 3Dmark2005 that they literally crawl at 1-4 fps...especially the canyon/zepplin CPU test....
is this normal for a AMD64 oced to 2.5ghz to crawl in the CPU test?

never seen such poor performance on previous CPU tests like those in 3dmark03...

Yep, mine crawls as well.

Only get 4300 as well.

Its normal. The CPU tests will run slower than tests that use your GPU. I'm running a 2.2ghz sledgehammer and it ran like crap.

Yeah. I never break 1 fps on my system but I get a 4792 on the cpu test which isn't too bad. Total I got a 2753

You're getting better fps on your system then, but your score is really low. That's odd. I was just talking with a guy that has a gig of ram, X800, and an A64 and he's only getting 2017 on the test. That's pretty low right there.

This version is really very humbling, to say the least kinda like far cry

I get a bit more than 3fps in Far Cry!

Maybe if you ran it at 400000000x300000000000000 res!

He's talking about the cpu test. If Far Cry was run off of your cpu instead of your gpu, it would definitely be humbled
