ATI 9800 pro @ 325 / 730
AMD 2600 @ Stock
kingston hyperx 512mb @222
hitachi deskstar 80gb ide
asus a7n8x
catalyst not installed.

Have to big up ati. on this one.
might get an x800 card to play with this week.

Thats a decent score man, one thing though, based on what you've given here, you have the memory and FSB running asynchronously? or do u have the FSB and memory running at the OCed speeds?(is the Video card OC as well?) and what RAM timings u running. I just asking cause that rig is almost identical to one I had a few months ago, and not far from my current rig, and I don't get 15000+ without OCing the CPU and Memory. I do get 16000+ when OC but i'm just curious as I want to gain a measure of how much faster the nforce2 chipset is to the V880 chipset. Also is it the 9800PRo with the 128 or 256 bit memory interface (although with a score like that its safe to assume 256bit).

only the memory was oc'ed fsb and cpu multipler was at stock.
memory timing was at 2,3,2,6 @ 222 fsb.
the video was oc'ed to 325 / 730, no artifacts. (256bit)

my first run i got 14662 with 256mb generic mem 3,3,3,8
second run was 14963 with 1gig dual kingston value 2.5,3,3,8
after that i was determined to pass 15000+ then i pushed it to the above score with the hyperx.
the nforce is a good chipset. always liked them over via.
but it might be too late for me to explore the oc features of the 880 chipset.

You can take a look at my benchies you'll get an appreciation for how well it performs. I can get 16000+ with just OCing the FSB and RAM, and alil higher with the Video OCed, its all in my benchies.. oh and I have 1GB HyperX running at timing 3-3-3-7/9 CAS 2.5. Maybe i'll try those timings and see if it'll be stable at higher than 200MHz. cause 222MHz is pretty damn good with those timings.

try tighter timing with 1 stick and see if that will make a difference.

nice scores, try some 3dmark 2003 , its alot less CPU/memory dependant ..

spent bout 4 hours working up a higher score.
board maxed out at 191 fsb. memory and fsb was at a 1:1 ratio timing on the memory got to 2,3,2,6. and the video @ 330 / 730.

hmm big differnece in scores..sweet card i was supposed to buy this card last year but thing happen (ivan)

Duyamn.... well that bests me, even with my card and cpu OCed more than urs I don't get that high, though ur cards memory clock is higher than mine. I will do my best to get my card to a higher stable OC on the memory front. Again WOW... on the other hand, it could just be the chipset... ah well. Yo run 3DMark 2003 and 2005.

Well I OCed my CPU to 2.4GHz, OCed the Video and re-benched my system, I managed an increase into the 17000+ range but its just shy of ur score. I will post my new score on my benches for a look see... again DUYAMN!!! that chipset made THAT much of a diff?
