Benchmark Results good? Bad ? Or Indifferent ?

Well I uninstalled the drivers and installed the 10.7 but had nothing but problems with them SO I went to the Asus site and downloaded there latest drivers and everything seems back to normal now and here are my test results.

It's a shame that you have found nothing but trouble ... I always keep my drivers updated and the only time I had problems was with version 2.49 of the Realtek HD Audio, with which I could not activate the Dolby Home Theater. It seems that what prevailed was your maximum - "If it ain't broken don't fix it" -, my friend!

Try here Steve:
SAPPHIRE- HOME

This is Sapphires site for ATI cards, usually where I grab my drivers.

I do not believe being a different brand should matter, as its all the same ATI CCC, But, they always keep older CCC's as well as the new ones.

Back as far as 9.11 ATM.

OUCH tried the drivers from Asus and ended up getting BSOD every couple of minutes SO that sucked! I am glad I made an image of my system thats was running perfectly, restored it back to the image and now all is running sooooooooooooooo sweet again now.

Like I said earlier "If it ain't broken don't fix it" It doesn't really matter as I am not a gamer so I don't need to squeeze anything more out of my Graphic's Card.

i see why mate , your max monitor res is 1280x1024 , you absolutely need a new monitor for that rig , you should be gaming at 1920x1200 AT LEAST with that

that rig is wasted on that screen mate get a better monitor (im assuming as you bought a prebuilt overclocked rig from overclockers your not short of a few bob)

that card and that cpu will easily stand a 24" monitor get a decent one and you'll wondewr how the hell you managed for so long gaming at such a low res

here you go

Dell UltraSharp U2410 24" Widescreen LCD Monitor - Midnight Grey [860-10089] 24" LCD


EDIT..................im getting that card confused with the card i used to have the 5870 , maybe im being a little ambitious with the res , stick to 22" 1680x1050

ATi Radeon 5770 Performance Test | AlienBabelTech

The HD 5770 works fine on 23 inch monitor, games at 1920x1080.

not according to benchmarks ive seen , not over 25fps anyway but hes not a gamer so its not a problem

[steve-pressman]

Ok you have me concerned now I have just redone the test again using other software here are the results I will try with 3Dmark Vantage as soon as it has finished downloading and post results.




Steve

 

[archie123]

those scores are ok mate i think , look at wishmasters scores , his card though older is quite a bit faster than yours , looking into benchmarks i think your card is performing ok , its no powerhouse but more than enough

i was mainly concerned with yuor furmark score it does seem very low

it might be worth getting 3d mark vantage or 3d mark 06 and running it at its default settings , you can compare your score to others with similar rigs on the 3d mark site

look at my komster score , last post previous page just so you can see how much variation you can get between cards , it doesnt mean yours is faulty

For me is fine, I have HD 5770 1GB and i run BC2, crysis and SC2 on 1920x1080 on very high-max. settings (no AA)

 

[archie123]

nah , not crysis on high , not at that res.....im not avin that it'll be a sub 20fps slideshow and as for BC2 you must be looking at 25-30 fps especially on Africa Harbour

If this was referring to my post then I don't think i ran crysis with AF. I never got 25-30 fps in BC2.

Wow Steve. Your card runs hot. It's almost 20C hotter than mine when I ran my test at your resolution to compare.

As for your results, it takes my two cards running in Crossfire to equal yours. I'm so jealous.

 

[cloud8521]

well since ONE GUY asked for it i will post it , tho i will use the same as everyone else to show how bad it is

 

[Mellon Head]

I think you should download a more recent version of Kombustor from the MSI website. Mine is a build from June and it sees my cards properly, the earlier versions gave lousy results similar to yours. It just didn't work right. IIRC, a 3850 shouldn't perform that badly.
