3DMARK06 Benchmark...

[bargegod]

i will soon hv my new notebook from Sager in. This is the configuration:
17" WUXGA
E6850(3.0GHZ/1333 FSB/4MB L2 CACHE)
1X 8800MGTX 512MB GPU(maybe dual SLI later)
2x 100gb 7200 rpm hdd in RAID 0 config
1x 100gb 7200 rpm hdd
4gb pc6400/800mhz ram
Vista Ultimate 64 bit

there are many xtras i also ordered but wont likely affect benchmarks.
anyone have ANY idea what i can expect for scores on 3DMARK06? thanx all.

Well, you should probably get around or over 10000 in 3DMark 06. But that's just my estimate seeing other benchmark results. :)

[bargegod]

AWESOME!! thanks. cant wait to get rid of this weak HP dv9626us notebook when the MACHINE arrives. lol thanks

[TheOaKMaN]

u would probably get 8500 - closely 10,000 3dmark06. My 3dmark06 score was 9939.... close enough to 10,000 :lol:

[Prasad007]

Yeah... actually yours would be a bit higher due to the Quad core CPU :)

[cablsurfin]

I have same config but dual boot XP Pro and Vista 64. Averaging 5 runs of 3DMark06 under Windows XP with the stock Sager drivers is 9731 and under Vista 64 is 9474. I will be purchasing and installing a Quad Core CPU next week and will post my comparative scores.

[rswarkentin]

With stock drivers on XP I got around 9730 - 9740 and that is with the same config pretty much

[bargegod]

got my notebook in today and ran 3dmark06. scored a 9416. not too bad i suppose. will run it again later with background tasks and such closed and optimize settings to see if i can break 10k. i think i will be able to.

[bargegod]

oakman, do u think with a 2nd 8800mgtx in SLI i will surpass 10k?

[robamb2002]

do u think with a 2nd 8800mgtx in SLI i will surpass 10k?
With the marks so close to 10k to begin with... It would easly surpass 10k :)

[bargegod]

maybe 13k? lol just kinda aiming high. when i spend the xtra 700.00 i wanna know it was worth it, and numbers dont lie...

[TheOaKMaN]

yes. definitely. with 2SLIs u would probably get around 14 - 15k 3dmark06. i saw someone with similar specs (only on a desktop) but the specs are the same and he got 14000 some 3dmark06. so yes :D

just got my computer back from the big upgrade. benchmarked it as soon as i got it. my 3dmark06 score came in at 10,073. So i am very happy. i was getting between 6300 and 6400 with my 8700 so this is a NICE upgrade :twisted:

[Justin_W@XoticPC]

Glad to hear you are very happy :D with the upgraded 8800 video card and amazing Sager laptop performance!!!

Nice going, mate! :) Game on!! :D

[jameslee]

yeah the score was real good amagine my surprise when i ran 3dmark06 3 time in a row and found out the score i posted was a little off. after running like that my final score with 64 bit vista was 10,093. and yes i am VERY pleased with my performance. sorry for the headachs i have caused.

also managed to get a score on xp. came in at 10,512
the scores i have gotten all are with stock sager drivers. no tweaks and everything running in the background

[TraNceD.gURL]

Might as well post my 3DMark06 score: 10,048 (no tweaks) and with only one of my 8800's. I'm ok with that. 8)

EDIT: I'm using preinstalled driver. I didn't change a thing, as per OregonCoastGamer's instructions.

[pad11]

yeah, that scores pretty good for one card!!!

nice!

later,
pat!

[ETRacer]

OK here are my bench scores, see signature below. all 3D marks, 2001, 2003, 2005, and 2006 all default scores. all default drivers and a single video card

[danny_christ]

peoples, post scores and please!!!!!!!!!!!!! the driver u used!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ETRacer]

Scores below, Im using the drivers supplied by Sager. nothing special

[pad11]

My question is this: Would you all suggest using the Sager installed Stock Drivers or going for something else? I'm just curious because this will be my first go round with the 8800 GTX....then it will be SLi, but that will be later, and my question again would be, what drivers for THAT config? Stock? another source? worth the effort? have any of you found switching back and forth between drivers to cause any corruption problems?

Wow, that's a lot of annoying little questions!

pat!
