Finally, we got XP installed on this thing. The fucking POS DVD-ROM drive was locking up XP when it started to load.... Anyway, weve got XP installed and running now. Before I left from work, we were downloading the unreal tournamnet 2003 thingie that fury told us to get. I'll grt the rest of the components installed tomorrow and run those tests then. Should have those either tomorrow night or Thursday.

Ohhh and a bit of interesting news. In trying to buy parts today, the affect of the strike on the west by those dickwad longshoreman has basically screwed us over. I want to personally thank each and everyone of those inept union members for this.

Parts are scarse and it's only going to get worse. We had to run around the Internet to find another set of MP procs for the other dualie being built because our suppliers don't have any...they ran out and their shipments are in the hulls of ships which are now in route back to east asia. Again, thanks for being greedy assholes.

they aren't on strike, they're locked out

looking great so far, where do I apply?

With no tweaking at all, these are the scores from the UnrealTournament2003 benchmarks:


dm-antalus
21.290190 / 40.487488 / 72.209488 fps
Score = 40.507141

br-anubis
12.791053 / 53.884193 / 114.832764 fps
Score = 53.889038

dm-asbestos
18.694431 / 43.498474 / 119.971817 fps
Score = 43.512115

ctf-citadel
12.705010 / 42.563297 / 93.740974 fps
Score = 42.621712

dm-antalus
52.920464 / 125.033005 / 441.410797 fps
Score = 125.101440

dm-asbestos
53.967537 / 142.702881 / 387.530518 fps
Score = 142.889877

ctf-citadel
40.256824 / 103.151306 / 267.881561 fps
Score = 103.360138

I'm not sure what the first two sets of figures represent though.

 

[fury]

Probably botmatch, because the last set of scores are much higher, so they're probably the flyby benchies.

That seems a bit low for a R9700 though (I get 50 botmatch/115 flyby at 640x480 on my GF2). What resolution did you run it in?

 

[PostCode]

Good question. I think it's runnng at 800x600 as this is what the game is setup for. Gotta figure out why I can only get 800x600 and 1024x768 on the res through through Windows. Probably the monitor settings.

 

[PostCode]

Nope. I guess this thing was running at 1024x768. I suppose those scores would be a few points higher at a lower res, but then with 128MB of RAM this video card, I really dont think the scores would be much different.
