It's beacause the low performance of a 4550 and the fact that the cpu has a very little impact in 3d03. If he was using a 5870 the difference between a low and a high end cpu would be bigger.
This is an impressive score for s775, since AMD really should have an advantage with it's integrated northbridge. I'm surprised there isn't more AMD rigs in top 10 ddr2 rank.
Hi.
Just wondering where this setup goes. I do think that it should be as 3x 4850, since the other way around could be considered cheating. Maybe it's not even allowed to mix cards on the bot?
