If this has already been done, i apologize. Truth is, i just wanted to share my happy overclocking scores tonight. My GPU never overclocked before, but.. seems with my new drivers, is putting a smile on my face.
i just reinstalled vista 64bit again, with 3dmarkvantage shortly to follow.
NOTE: i know these benchmark arent accurate to real life performance, and honestly, i dont put much faith in them. I was just amazed with my score increase just by overclocking what i had. so, in a way, this is a "post your overclock/screenshot of vantage score" thread.
post original clock and score, and then overclocked clocks, and screenshot of score.
my original score with stock speeds was 7351.
Core2Duo E8400 @ 3.00ghz, 9 x 333 1.3125 Volts (32 Idle, 54 Load)
8800 gts 512 (g92) 670/972 43C idle, 59 Load 45% fan
4 gb PC8500 @ 1066mhz 5-5-5-15 1.9V
overclocked setup
Core2Duo E8400 @ 4.14ghz 9 x 460 1.3625 Volts (36 idle, 59 Load)
8800 gts 512 (g92) 756/1055 45C idle, 62 Load 55% fan
4 gb PC8500 @ 1104mhz 5-5-5-15 2.26V
once i too reinstall vista i will post. i tried it once but don't remember the score.

Nice score, pity it isn't valid ;P
whats that do? my score will go down with it off? i just opened it and ran on default settings. that seems to be the way most people do it.
i dont see how that makes a score invalid. isnt that the point. having driver updates gettin better performance?
since vantage only works directx10, you can only use 8 or 9 series cards no? so, anyone can get the higher score with newer drivers. so, i dont have an "edge" on anyone.
but.. either way, it doesnt matter. the point of my post was to show how much of a difference just some overclocks made, and tryin to get other to post the same idea. stock vs overclock.
yes they do... with 3dmark 06 stock i get 13k with overclocks its at 17k.
and i think with my old 8600GT's in sli i went from stock 7-8k to 13k with overclocking, voltmods on my video cards and some -10C winter air
