Aquamark 3 - 2600K 5.4Ghz GTX 580 = 130k only?

[jackbrennan2008]

Hi all,

 

I've decided to give aquamark 3 a go and i only get 130k points. I've looked at some other benchmarks with people using a single 4890 who get over 300k?

 

I'm missing something, whats the trick ??

 

I apprecite any feedback.

 

Running on clean Windows XP install.

I had a similar issue on XP with the GTX580... I had to use W7 to get a decent score

Fermi + XP + AM3 = fail (ur gettin <10k cpu score right?)

If u run it on W7, install the patch and set affinity in task manager

[Dualist]

W7 and just rename the exe file.

[sumonpathak]
