3dmark score seems to low...nature wierd.

[wuzzapiman]

I get 11,358 with these specs..it seems really low..
2400+ @ 166x12...47* full load
Albatron Ti4200P 128Mb @ 295/630 (can go faster...)
Abit AT7-MAX2
Corsair PC3200 512Mb cas 2 XMS memory

and what is up w/ my nature score @ only 56.6 FPS

Mip-Map maximum

No Antialiasing (checked powerstrip) and no aniastropic

aparture is set to 128Mb


second problem...
I tried to run nature @ 310/650 and i got major artifacts then pressed ESC. now everytime i run that test it goes smoothly then jumps about every 5 seconds..i reinstalled software and put speeds way down but i still get the jump.

Thanx

Nature one is always the lowest for me. Thats a really wierd problem, usually when I o/c my vid card too much it dosen't even get to the nature part.

I just ran nature by itself

nature is the only pure directx8.1 test so its heavily dependant on your gpu.

its always going to be the slowest result because of that.

I love that nature test looks nice i wanna go in there as a sof2 player n rip it apart

Nature score does seem very low for that system. I'm getting over 80fps. but I am running a 10% higher Video Core clock. When your doing DX8 stuff like shading pixels etc. in the Nature Demo, a higher Core clock seems to be better than more memory bandwidth.

What do you mean by MipMapping Maximum.. as in best possible quality? That will cost a few points...
I think Most users making a Maximum effort run will turn mip mapping all the way down. It looks ugly, but boosts performance.

Its not that it's slow but it runs for like 5 seconds and then jumps abound 1/2 second ahead...there's also alot longer time from when the loading screen goes down till when the game comes up--from 1 second to like 5 seconds
