this score is awful, sth must be wrong with your rig.
my celeron300a oc 450 and gf2ultra scores ~1600pts, and i don't think yours is only one third as fast as mine.
even my p55c oc 300 scores 640pts, and k6-3-300 scores 990, all using the gf2ultra.

We really need a 3dmark 99 and 2000 thread for older rigs.....

OK UPDATE..... I do stick my foot in my mouth alot, so I looked it over more closely.
SO........Actually your correct, after looking it over more there is something wrong with the rig, somehow the SBLIVE! has decided to share the same IRQ with the Geforce2.
Not sure this would affect the score, but it could with how the LIVE! is...
I'll repost scores for this machine when I get this to sort itself out.
I actually use this paticular machine alot 🤣 despite it being a slow celeron.

I've been doing some testing, more testing, and some tweaking and here's the final with the absolute max I can squeeze out of this setup. One of my testings I've found is the fastest drivers for nvidia with XP are 175.19, if your GPU is supported by that driver package. I tested all drivers from 163.75 to 185.85, beta and normal, this one was the fastest after all testing.

Also with what I've done to this chip I've pushed it up to 4.36 Ghz, the fastest I can get with what I've done to the poor thing. And here's the final result.

Holy hell, that's Ludicrous Speed. You're close to the ~79.5k my 4930K/GTX 780 produces, which...just shouldn't be.

I am SO tempted to install WinXP, just to see my rig distance itself a little more from yours...🤣.

It would be faster if I hadn't been a moron and tried to sand down the top of the cpu chip and lap it (which just made it run hotter). It used to run 4.68 Ghz stable before I screwed it up. And this is just with a single 6MB-cached 45nm dual core. By this time next month I should have a 12MB harpertown quad core in there and see what that does :>

The only way a quad-core harpertown would increase your score is if it's capable of clocking higher than 4.36GHz. The extra cores won't help because the benchmark is single-threaded.

Also, all quad-core LGA775 processors are multi-chip modules. For example a Q9550 is made up of two E8300 processors underneath a single heat spreader. So even though a Q9550 has 12MB of total L2 cache, each core only has access to 6MB. The Core-2 based Xeons work the same way.

Awww sad face. That's kinda sad it won't help 3dmark 2001se much. Maybe I'll wait on the quad and get one with a higher multiplier capable of 4.5 - 4.8 then. Even if it won't help 3dmark2001se much, it'll be better for gaming, which I actually use that system for sometimes. And I'm planning on making that 775 system a "backup gaming platform" for my i7. Some day I'll end up with a 790i board and 3 nvidia cards for it.

OS of choice was Windows 2000 , I wanted to put XP on this, but given that I only have WinXP SP3 available, Win2K made more sense, certainly not going to put Win98SE on it.

on a seperate note, running the Doom3 timedemo at high settings/1024X768 , gave me a score of about 35 (can't quite remember , but it was certainly 35)

Almost 1ghz OC - No voltage adjustment on the CPU, board is very picky about ram thats why I don't have a second stick and dual channel mode.... It only wants to accept Hynix Chips, or it won't boot, and I only have 1 DDR stick of that right now.
It is stable like this.

AlphaWing, Nice overclock. What are the temps like on the CPU?

Any OC to the 9700 Pro?

^Thanks foey
It's a Prescott so its hot, but it idles around 49c load is 58-60c. Cooled by an Alpha-Novatech pin style heatsink, so its quite effective.
9700pro is running stock, with its stock heatsink, which amazingly for its age, the fan hasn't gotten loud on it. Probably should replace it, but it doesn't get to hot when another 92mm fan is above it cooling the AGP slot and most of the PCI slots too. Unlike the 9800pro the stock heatsink isn't actually a piece of junk on it 🤣.
This particular machine started off life with a Northwood 2.4ghz P4 I ran with the same heatsink for 11years at 3.2ghz. I just recently decided to upgrade it when I found this CPU in a pile of junk oem matx motherboards I acquired lately.

Upgraded the ram at the same time, and found its very very picky about high density 1gb sticks, it was running 1gb x4 256mb PC2100 @ 3:2 divider before, with the northwood 🤣. So even tho its in single channel mode... PC3200 at 5:4 effectively 214mhz at 266, is an upgrade.

I wonder if there is significant difference between Voodoo5@66MHz PCI and AGP?

Theoratically, there should be no difference when running PCI@66MHz, as that is what the AGP Voodoo 5500 variant is running also at on the AGP bus. As far as i know, the V5 5500 does not take advantage of AGP specific benefits either.

I never posted my Glide rig's score.

With my normal boot including background processes such as Daemon Tools and Logitech's em_exec.exe and the other Immersion iFeel stuff, I get a benchmark of 1471.

With all background processes killed except explorer, systray, and devldr16, I get a benchmark of 1519.
