Is 6170 on 3DBench OK?
 
Just got a ti4200

Used to get 2700 on my MX400 and now I got 6170 on the ti4200.

My machine

ASUS A7A133 Mboard with 1Gb SDRAM
4X AGP
128Mb DDR ti4200

Is it my BBoard holding me back because of the SDRAM?

Cheers

Forgot to mention the all important CPU: a lowly Athlon XP 1600+

So this is a poor benchmark?

Should also mention that the games run great now! 1260*1024 32bit colour.
Newest game I have tested is Wolfenstein Enemy Territory.

I think you should be up at 9000, but that would be with DDR ram.

Forgot to say. I upgraded to an xp1600 from a P3 933 and kept my sdram cos I
was on a budget. Within 4 weeks I had a new board with ddr.
I hardly seen any perfomance gain from the upgrade of P3 to XP sdram.

Just tried overclocking to 284/588 and got the close to the same 3D bench
result.

Weird.
