And they still didn't calculate it the way I wanted too.


gotta do it myself ><

GPU score of a stock crossfire 2900 setup: 12980

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=2694745

GPU score of a crossfire 2900 setup near INQ clocks: 13080

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=2664231

so we get

CPU score stock: 10787

CPU score overclocked: 16951

A 57% increase. Does boosting the CPU clock increase the GPU scores that much that my results are completely off?

you compare C2D to C2Quad ?

Doesn't seem to have an influence on the GPU scores, which is interesting for my comparison as the bigger the CPU effect is on the GPU scores, the less it's worth.

My Croffire test on DFI RD600, C2D @ 3,23GHz -> 14579 3D Marks 2006 (http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=get...&articID= 581)

My other 'unofficial' test on P5B Del, CPU @ 3850MHz -> 15644 3D Marks 2006 (http://www.hwbot.org/compare.do?resultId=620731)

No VGA overclocking with both benchmarks.
No perfect compare, second run is more tweaked for high score, and boards are different too, but with ~ 600MHz higher clocked CPU I got around 1000 extra 3D Marks.

3D Mark 2006 does scale well when you overclock your CPU, though knowing that Conroe allready has a short pipeline I can hardly believe that there is so much more performance left.
