I don't know if it makes any difference at all, but i ran the benchmark after my pc had been running all day without a reboot. my 2001se score was 11979.

my setup:
AMD 2200+
1 gig ddr 2100
msi k7t266pro2ru mb
ATI All In Wonder 9700 pro
2x WD 800JB HDD
That's all the important stuff.

I ran the benchmark a week ago immediately after formatting and reinstalling XP and Video Drivers only and scored around 12600. What's the deal? I also noticed that after installing sp1 the scores dropped considerably. Any suggestions on how to improve would be geatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm sorry I made a typo in my last reply.

my latest score should have read 10979, not 11979.

well, did the voltage pin mod to 1.75v on my XPC sb51g.

the result wasn't as well as i expected. i could only bench 3dmark01 and complete it at 160fsb. i was really hoping for 165fsb . i think i've maxed out this rig and now i'm waiting for the new P4 XPC . it should have a higher memory setting and hopefully have cpu/agp voltage setting also.

anyway, i'm up 30 points from my last.

3dmark01se= 13,465

I finally got around to benchmarking my new system:

Win XP SP1

ASUS P4PE

Intel P4 3.06 GHZ with HT on

Radeon 9700 Pro/Catalyst 3.2 Drivers

512 MB PC2700 Ram

No Overclocking or shutting down anything running in the background and I got these scores:

3D Mark 2001 SE/330= 14111

3D Mark 2003 = 4647

Just installed new Corasir PC2700 and now my score for 3D Mark 2001 ver 330= 15248 undere the same above conditions.
