Core 2 Duo E6300 @3.73Ghz
4GB G.Skill Ram
MSi r6950 Twin Frozr II (MSi OC'ed edition @ 810 core 1250 memory)
***MSi OCed is only 10Mhz more than the stock version, which is 800Mhz core and 1250 memory (HD 6950 Stock settings)
Driver used: AMD 11.1 driver
***I noticed that my fps score was 8-9 fps slower from all 1x-3x (142-144 fps) on my initial bench and then i bench it like 2-3 more times and i got the max fps from the above settings. I think my GPU or CPU need a warm-up before it gives me maximum fps (150-151 fps).... Just something I'd like to let you guys know what's going on in my bench tests.
Results: Since they are all in the 150s I will only post one screenshot =]
1x 151
2x 151
3x 150
Based on these results I can say that I'm CPU limited! =/ I'm sure I would gain more fps if i had more L2 or L3 cache or if I'm on a quadcore CPU....And my motherboard doesn't have 2.0 PCI-E support so I have a lot of handicap here.
Here are my 4x ssaa and 9x ssaa fps scores:
1x 4xssaa 149 fps
1x 9xssaa 141 fps
2x 4xssaa 125 fps
2x 9xssaa 60 fps
3x 4xssaa 63 fps
3x 9xssaa 27 fps
Oh yeah, I'm kicking the gtx 580 butt even with my all of these handicaps I'm having ^^ haha. This is still the 11.1 driver and 810 clock speed (MSi stock settings).
