Target PC :: FIC AD11 SocketA DDR Motherboard

Mad Onion's 3D Mark 2000

8486

The AK73 Pro scored 6963 with the Absolute MM GTS card. With a Leadtek GTS the score went up to 6977. I'm assuming that was due to the extra 32 MB of DDR memory on board. The higher CPU speed definately comes into play here but you get an idea that the DDR is also contributing to this great score. I would have liked to have used the Leadtek card to see what the benefits would be but that one too has joined the hardware graveyard at Victor's house. Doh! You can download 3D Mark 2000 here.

I think this shows that the Absolute MultiMedia GTS is fill rate limited. Look at the high resolution "High Quality" scores to see what I mean. Those scores are within 2 points at 1280 x 1024. That is why I picked that resolution in the first place. But there is no comparison in the resolutions that most gamers would use. BTW - the AD11's scores are the highest scores I've seen when looking across the board. Keep in mind that this is at the stock 1200 MHz CPU speed and with the memory not fully optimized. Yup, more awesome performance right out of the box.
