    Abnormally low scores on 3DMark Vantage GTX295 ?

    I am no great fan of 3DMark, but using 3DMark Vantage when I overclock video card to test whether it actually is a stable overclock or not. What I really trim over is that my new GTX295 hardly score better than my previous 9800GTX +? At the same time, I thought that a score of over 50,000 on the CPU does that high?

    That so wrong out yes .... highest score in vantage I know about is a total of 34000? so think you should check your drivers, settings in vantage and take a reboot in the same

    Total score min is rather on 15339, and it is due to mainly a "low" GPU scores for 12381?
    How in all your GTX295 (mild overclock) can score so low, when my 9800GTX+ score anything like the same I not?

    And this with the CPU score is beyond all reason? 54169?
    Attempted reboot and a little of each, but never fall below 52,000?

    CPU scores are absurdly high because 3dmark Vantage supports PhysX acceleration and it is just physics "CPU" score calculates. Also, it is actually GPU leaving your CPU score in the weather. Can disable PhysX acceleration in nVidia drive clean if you want to see a traditional CPU scores, as far as I know.

    What video card does not score so well, I'm not so sure. Are you sure SLI is enabled?

    If you look at the GPU-Z as the report that the SLI is enabled?
    When it comes to CPU scores, I have to good to hear about people passing by 50000, with or without PhysX enabled?

    And I would think that 3DMark Vantage has removed parts of the GPU-score and put it over the CPU score

    disable PhysX .. it is "cheating". has seen more than 60,000 points with this on. anyway, reinstall the drivers possibly 185.20 so I guess you get a decent score
