Is my 3Dmark03 score normal for my setup (GeForce XP 5900)?

Might want to try the latest BETA drivers on this site
http://www.guru3d.com/ should bring it up to nearer the 5000 mark. But that
score looks about right for a non-overclocked system wit the non-ultra card.

My 5900 ULTRA gets around 6200 on 3DMark03 with the 44.71 drivers.

Hi,

I built my PC and performed the 3Dmark03 test. I scored "only" 4332. I
expected it to be higher. I used the default 3Dmark03 settings at 1024.

Here's my setup:

Pentium 4 3.00Ghz (hyperthreading enabled)
Asus P4C800 Deluxe motherboard
2*512 MB Kingston HyperX DDR-SDRAM PC3500-233
Asus V9950 GeForce XP 5900 128MB

Windows XP Professional SP 1
DirectX 9.0a

My question is, is my 3Dmark03 score of 4332 too low and if it is, what
could be the cause of it? Any BIOS, Nvidia of Windows tweaks I missed?

Thank you,
Darth Elvis

Sounds right but you'll get more performance with the beta 44.67 or 44.71
beta drivers.

Please remember the quotes around "performance" next time.

Well Roger,

I tested both versions of the beta driver against the 44.03 in several
different gaming benchmarks as well as 3DMark2003 and the performance is
about 7-10 percent more depending on the game. This is without any
overclocking applied.

For what it's worth I get 5600 odd with a GeForceFX5800 Ultra and an
XP2400+ CPU on a 266FSB Mobo (PC2100 Ram) and no overclocking using 44.03
drivers and Windows 2003 Server.
