Howzit goin

My 3dmark scores are as follows
3dmark2001 9620
3dmark03 2600

I'm running
AMD 2600+ @ 1.92Ghz
256mb ram
ATI radeon 9600pro 128mb

I just wanted to know if these scores were good, and if you had any suggestions on how to up my scores.

ps. my MoBo bios does not have any 'Advanced chipset featues' so overclocking in bios is pretty much out of the picture

Yes those are okay but the main bottle neck is that ram get 512 and you scores will be upped you can still overclock your graphics card

Well. Install the latest catalyst Drivers (4.4), and enable their Overdrive Facility) - I know it's only a 27MHz boost, but it helps. More RAM will def. up your score a bit, but also Change Your MoBo! Either that or Flash it with a new bios that might enable overclocking faciluities (remember to cool!!!).

My Specs

P4 2.8Ghz Prescott
512 MB DDR400 Dual Channel
ATi Radeon 9600XT
120Gb S-ATA

ciao

The first cards to support OVERDRIVE were the 9600XT and 9800XT and above and it is not only for Sapphire cards. It is part of the official ATI Catalyst drivers.
