706359 2008-09-24 20:59:00 SWEET! a P155ing contest! :)

my current PC is in my signature - after the weekend i will have:

Q6600
4gb DDR2-800
2x500GB hard drives
Asus P5Q-VM motherboard
Asus GTX 260

due to 3dmark not liking multiple cores i assume it will be the same as if i had a E6600 instead of a Q6600

ill be doing some tests with the old and new PC just to see what difference there is :)

706360 2008-09-24 21:12:00 Hmmm.

Well, technically mines not going right now, but...

AMD 6000+ X2 (yeah, It's old)
Corsair 3GB DDR2-800
Asus M2N32 SLI Deluxe Wifi Edition
Thermaltake Kandalf black brushed metal water cooled case (weighs more than your house, if you like LAN party's, DON'T get it) :D
Asus 260GTX 896MB
2TB of Seagate HDDs
750 Thermaltake ToughPower PSU

It goes OK, never actually done a 3DMark test on it, will have to see when I get it going. :punk

706362 2008-09-24 22:13:00 3dmarks06 loves multi-core processors

oh?

my bad then :waughh:

is there an update out for it or soemthing?

as we ran 3dmark 06 on a mates machine with a Q6600 and 8800GTX and it thrashed the hell out of core0 but core 1,2 and 3 sat there twiddling their thumbs :annoyed:

it has been a while since i last used 3dmark so i will have to update myself on it :)

706363 2008-09-25 01:15:00 I got a Geekbench score of 2583 (with Firefox and two tabs open and a Google Talk conversation open). pcuser42 (130)
706364 2008-09-25 02:38:00 It's good enough.

Plays all the games I want, mostly at high setting with filters on... I spent so long worrying about my computers power when I bought it that I forgot to play games on it, and just OC'd it as much as I could.

I've toned it back to where I'm happy with it, and it still sits dormant 98.75648% of the time. So who cares how big my e-penis is? It's as big as I can afford. Actually about as big as I couldn't really afford, but bought anyway.

Re-try it an disable 1 of the cores, you will see the difference . A Quad usually about 2000 marks over a Dual core

706366 2008-09-25 04:12:00 Athlon 1800+
1.5gb DDR
80+750GB HDD
Geforce 4 Ti4200 128mb

biggest parts are
HP LP2475w 24"
Logitec Z-5500d

I reckon I could keep using this computer for at least several years; Civ 4 at 1920x1200 on my comp is still playable (but then again it -is- a turn based game...) :)
