Windows 7 Benching software

This recently upgraded benchmarking software caught my eye as it's got tests for Dx10.1.
So if you have a Dx10.1 capable card check it out (it also contains tests for Dx10 and Dx9). I have to say the graphics are awesome too :

I meant to include this screenshot in the above post.. This is the demo/benchmark running..

Here's another demo with a benchmark utility included..
A decent system will average around 60fps.... What do you get? (default settings)
My score is 62.588 avg fps

Very nice free benchmark demo. My pc got a score of 965, i think!!, i can't remember the framerate score.

Lol..which one Phil? The first one or the second 'space' one..

 

[philwhite]

I am not sure what you mean by the Space one?? please add a link for this unless i missed it.
BTW the Tropic one was all default settings apart from a resolution of 1680x1050.

Sorry, the second post I made had a link eventually to this download:

Although this is a 400+MB download! Also the score I posted related to this demo..
I'll bench using the 'Tropical' set and post the result. There should be quite a difference with my 2-core compared to your quad..

 

[kemical]

Ok... I just benched but used slightly different settings. I took a screenshot (F12) of the result. My settings were at
DX10
1280x1024 Resolution
Fullscreen
2xAA
4XAF
Reflections 'on'
Ambient occlusion 'on'

Score 1119
Avg fps 44.4

Oh, don't you think the music is really cool?

OK kemical, i will run the test again myself and take a screenshot and post it on here.
I see from your screenshot you have service pack 2 installed. I did not know that was available.
I will download the other demo you provided a link for but the server must be slow as i have a 20mb internet connection and am only getting a transfer rate of 80kb/s at the moment.

Hi Phil,

It can take a while before it turns up but anyway read the thread and you'll see what I mean...


Edit:
The download was slow for me too plus the info on the screenshot has my CPU at 1004MHz...Weird! It's actually a 3.2GHz chip!

Hi kemical, here is a thumbnail of a benchmark score. All settings are default apart from the resolution.Link Removed due to 404 Error

Hi Phil,

Hmm...so you ran it in the default Dx9 version?
Ok, I had to do the same....

 

[philwhite]

hey kemical. I just downloaded the free version of 3D Mark Vantage and here is a link to my systems score. Not as good as the fastest system shown next to mine but not too bad i suppose.

Hi Phil,
I did that test ages ago so can't remember my score... I'll have to download it again and have another go...

 

[kemical]

I ran the test but lost the page lol.. Anyway my score was P7000. I told you your quad would make the difference. I think my CPU score was around 4000 whilst yours is over 11,000! I think it's stupid that you can only run the test once as 3 runs would give you an average.
