Oldscarface Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Team hardware info.nl has found a tweak for catzilla which can give a boost of around 200-700 point on your total score by lowering the loading time with approx. 5000 ms This tweak is already tested by different users and systems and all setups had a gain between 200-700 point on the total Catzilla score. The tweak: The tweak is very easy, start the PC and let it boot into windows. Then start Catzilla and afterwards start 3dmark 11. Min. 3dmark 11 (don't close it) and run Catzilla. You will find a nice boost in your loading time and thus on your total score. Example : my loading time normal is around 9K, after this tweak it is 4K, see http://hwbot.org/submission/2723617_ Tweak is tested on X99, Z97 and also AMD setup, all had a gain of around 5K loading time. Please try it and give us feedback of your boost. Quote

The boost is less than I expected. Where the other sub scores beside the loading time approx. the same, because there is always a fluxuation between the runs. Quote
Guest TheMadDutchDude Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Thanks for the heads up. Such a weird one, but hey... it works. Quote

Where the other sub scores beside the loading time approx. the same, because there is always a fluxuation between the runs. did just 1 run after reboot whit no 3dmark11 and than reboot and did 1 run whit 3dmark11 for 567p +11 points @ gpu+cpu +1 point @ cpu rest was the same exept the loading time for 720p -2 points @ gpu+cpu -6 points @ cpu -1 points @ fur rest was the same exept the loading time Quote

Your loading time even gain almost 8K (from 60391 to 52273), but the loading time is so bad that it has almost no effect on the total score. Please try it on a normal PC (best with a SSD) and you will find the boost of 200-700 points on your total score. Quote

TerraRaptor Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Did anyone try installing Catzilla on ramdisk? does it improve loading time? Quote
Oldscarface Posted January 12, 2015 Author Posted January 12, 2015 Did anyone try installing Catzilla on ramdisk? does it improve loading time? I have tested it, but the loading times did not improve that much with a ramdisk. At least not on my system (X99) -> Did not tested this tweak in combination with a Ramdisk btw, so .......... Quote
