Haswell is still a beast.

I gained roughly 5000 points by "upgrading" to Windows 10 IoT LTSC. I love it, finally feels like it should.

I bet I can gain more by disabling Hyperthreading.

I thought it might be fun to post a couple of scores from my latest overkill Windows XP retro rocket.

Specs:
Windows XP SP3 (updated ACPI driver for modern platforms)
Gigabyte Z370 HD3P
i7-9700k (4.6 GHz all-core)
EVGA GTX 980 Ti SC

3DMark01 Score: 118,015

For a bit more fun, I turned off a couple of cores and increased the core frequency to 5.0GHz for a few more points in Windows XP.

i7-9700k (4 cores enabled, 5.0 GHz all-core), 3DMark01 Score: 135,721

This must be the fastest stock FX5200. It has 3,6ns BGA DDR RAM clocked at 276Mhz (552 DDR) with 128Bit Memory Bus witdh. It uses the same PCB as the Palit FX5200Ultra.

it's definitely rare to find them with good memory speed like that! and there is probably some OC potential in it still, very nice,
I call it a win when I find any 5200 with 128bit memory these days, even the more common 5ns memory ones,

Wow that is good! I recently benchmarked an FX 5600 and it only got 8923 Points! Video below if interested

Really nice Video! Keep Up the good Work. It is Strange that your FX5600 is slower even with all of your clockspeeds are Higher than mine. Maybe my FX5200 has extreme tight memory Timings. On the RAM module itself it says "DDR SGRAM". Now i know that SGRAM is a bit faster than SDRAM. I used Nvidia 44.03 Driver. (And i think i Set Driver settings to Maximum Performance)

Edit: i Benched it again with a slightly better system (Motherboard chipset and system RAM memory Timings) and I get even more 3dmarks. So the Card was still bottlenecked by my old System. I also did an overclocked Test:

8600 GT GDDR2 (aXiss Hwbot)

9500 GT GDDR2 😁

was bored and decided to run 3dm01 on both gpus on my pc,
not very optimized but shouldn't be terrible

hd630 with ddr3 memory

and rtx 3050 with some undervolt + memory OC (it boosts a little lower than at stock for the core, i do it for the temperature)
