If I may; a query regarding The DX11 PCI challange;

There is only one PCI ran on that bench ever made. I know PCI cards are not a popular HW to use but I would think that with just under 40,000 benchers there would be more than just one :confused:

And that one run is questionable as pointed out by Strunkenbold.

http://hwbot.org/submission/2280939_

Could there have been an error made when it was submitted.

Or am I completely wrong and DX11 can run on a PCI card.

If I am wrong;

Pardon my ignorance

If it is wrong;

Since no submissions have been made yet, change to DX9 or whatever.

I too believe it's possible BUT how many PCI based cards can actually run it?

 

I woudn't believe too many could since PCI cards based on a much older style slot are being phased out in favor of PCI-E slotted cards and production of PCI cards isn't what it used to be by any means over the last few years at least.

That would mean the PCI based models capable of it will be very few so pickings of what cards available to use might pose a problem if really wanting to go for it in this category, esp if having to shop around for one.

 

Maybe some folks here could do some testing and see because I just don't see the playing field within this category being too competitive as it looks ATM. I could be wrong and maybe there are several that can and I do understand that but believe it is a valid question to be asked as in "Are you sure about this" or somewhere along those lines from a competitive standpoint.

 

Hoping I'm wrong and maybe things will turn out it won't be a real problem with it.

My bench SATAIII SSD died while running kabini @ 134MHz FSB :/.

It's really the SSD and not the controller, because it is not detected on my main machine too.

No way to copy the scores either.

 

Pci-e locked to fsb then, just as crappy fm2 :/ that stuff kills ssd and hdd.

The above result is submitted in wrong category.

That card sure is a pci-e version.

 

There is NO sapphire 5450 pci , with 1GB ram.

and sure doesnt look like a low profile pci card , in the photo.

 

A result moderator must edit it.

Been through Heaven D11 with a PCI 5450 didn’t get a score monitor doesn’t support 1680 x 1050 (as I remember) had the same problem with a 5770 the only other time I’ve ran the bench. As for cards the Egg only has two available based on the Nvidia 610 & AMD 5450, don’t know if there are others elsewhere so generally sounds very limited.
