********* contest - lets compare 3D Mark
 

I know it's been up before but I just want to bump the beautiful world of benchmarking your system.

I'm overclocking some and compare to others but I'd love to have a CloD database with peoples 3DMark score.

If you're interested in how your system compares to mine and others then download the free 3DMark Vantage and run the Performace benchmark and post the result here.
Who knows, you might find a bottleneck or notice that someone with same computer specification has higher score and that you still have some frames to squeeze out.

My score with the system in my sig is P14542 (details here).

More info on Futuremark 3DMark benchmarking tool at wikipedia.
"3DMark is a computer benchmarking tool created and developed by Futuremark Corporation (formerly MadOnion.com and initially Futuremark) to determine the performance of a computer's 3D graphic rendering and CPU workload processing capabilities."
- wikipedia

Edit: 3DMark Vantage is preferable at this point as it utilize dx10 just like CloD (3DMark06 is dx9 and 3DMark11 is dx11). Also run the Performance benchmark without any option for best comparison.

My results on a G53J Laptop.

I´t runs CloD at medium settings with some options set to high.

My system seems to be pretty slow compared to yours..

I wonder what makes that huge difference, other than i´m on a laptop.

My specs seems to be pretty close to yours, or am i missing something?

If you compare our g-cards here...

...you'll see that your 460M is significant slower even though it's a fairly new card.
On top of that I've overclocked mine which gives me apx. 2000 more points.
And then my CPU is faster but more important has four cores.

I'd say those are the reasons.

Thx.

I have googled it and it looks like its a normal result on my model laptop.

What's your 3dmark11 score, it makes most machines chug.

I only have 3DMark Vantage. This is what I get:

Total score= 36064, GPU=31769, CPU=61105.

One must have a dx11 card to run 3dmark11 so thought that Vantage would be most suitable as many Clod players don't have dx11 cards yet.
Also, Clod only use dx9 and 10 as of now. :-(

That's awesome.
Just for the record. Are those scores enough to max out CloD (max settings/8xAA/16xAF @ 1920)?

I run everthing maxed out, except I turn off grass. It's a little jumpy flying low over London, but playable. Only running on one of the 480s because SLI isn't available (easily) yet.

Total score= P44734, GPU=38542, CPU=86347

Weird.

I just noticed that a CPU only Test results in 40k, but if go through the whole combotest I only get ~9k for the CPU.

I am happy with my three year old rig:
3D Mark Vantage: 16'591 overall score
3D Mark 11: P4642 overall score

My rig:
C2Q 9550@3.4GHz
ASUS P5Q
4x2GB DDR2 800MHz Corsair XMS2 RAM
0815 500GB HDD
ASUS GTX560Ti TOP @900MHz
1680x1050 screen resolution on old 21.5'' Apple Cinema Display

I did not install the patch yet. But before CloD was very playable with some adapted settings (not everything maxed out...) with about 20-30 FPS over London and the usual slow downs when the skies are busy :cool:
