My First 3DMark run. Are the scores fine?

KPRage

Hey guys,

Finally got some time to download and, run the 3D Mark all in one demo version. Here is the link to my score: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/321396. My screenshot of cpuz and, gpuz: 17808. There is an issue pointed out in the results screen stating drivers are not approved. Is this OK? What should I do to get the right drivers? I have the CC13.1 drivers installed currently. Also, are these scores normal?

Thanks,
KP

P.S: As you can see, I have used MSI after burner to increase the GPU clock and, GPU mem clocks to: 808/1200 respectively. GPU voltage is 1.1V

Yep.. It took up too much of the screen and, the rest of them would not have been visible. So, just gave the link to my score.. 🙂 Now that I think of it, I understand why its important. However, not sure how to include it! 😛

Well, you'll have to do the run again. I'm pretty sure you can include it in there. You're running at 1080p. That's more than enough space. 😛

Ahh... My RAM barely held at 9-9-9-24-T1 timings.. 😞 It BSOD on me after the run.. 😛 Oh well.. Will do it again and, include the result.. It gives the result online BTW and, hence the trouble of including it in the screenshot.. Will try though..

I don't know where that score ranks with your hardware but if you click on the link, what's this by the driver not approve you will come to this page off approved drivers.

13.2 beta is your approved driver

You can take a screenshot, save it with paint and use snipping tool to cut out any part of the screenshot. That's one way to do it, I am sure there are other ways to get a partial screen shot
