Im pretty happy with the 130's considering the card i have and im thinking that will prolly be all i can get out of it.

exactly...im running on a lower end amd x2.....5000+ black edition 2.6ghs oc'd to 2.9, its nice...but i know damn well i need an intel board with a quad chip in there.....from what im seeing on reviews and benchmarks i know which path to take for now...nvidia has a lot of catching up to do..

what are you running makeout...mobo and cpu?? cuz right now my mobo and cpu together cost 190......processor was 100 and mobo was 79.99....i need to invest more on the brains now more than the brawn.

Thats straight card, no quality settings.

With 16aa and 4af (my Nvidia default) it was just below 120

since in oc'd

My current setup will have to do untill i get an intel mobo and cpu...

ive already picked out my next mobo and cpu.

mobo- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131181
cpu- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115017

Well SFG said it first, but you confirmed it. Our systems are very similar but you get nearly 100 more points on lightmark; I was getting 195ish. Thats also why I want to see your 3dmark score, I am curious as to whether you have more 3dmarks than me. Hmmm time to go troubleshooting....

**Mcstrange** · 02-10-08, 06:32 PM

Is nvidia control pannel overriding the quality settings?
Like I said I got 120 until I turned off aa and af, and I do have a 5 or 8% ASUS auto overclock set in the bios.

I think I got 3dmark working, let me re run that.
