Post Your PCMark04 Scores!

Hey everyone, PCMark04 was just released, so test your system. Go download.com and get it. Then post your scores and your system specs here.

With the free version, all you get is 10 system benchmarks. You don't get CPU, Memory, HDD, Graphics, or Custom benchmarks. Also Make sure you have Windows Media Encoder 9 series. You also must have windows XP. That encoder can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...ad/default.asp




My score is 1547 and my system specs are in my signature.

10 system tests, which basically test that stuff, but you dont get the more advanced and customizable tests......

Then it's not very useful.

Even so, I was thinking about trying it, but since I have to install any more M$ junk I will pass and stick with 3DMark.

2.6C
P4P800 DLX
1gig of PC3500
ATI Radeon 9700 PRO
36gb Raptor

very fragmented HDD, will post a score after HDD is defraged

Nothing OC'd

After defraging the HDD I get 4312

I will say I like the PCMark02 better.

Depends on what you are testing for....if you are testing Graphics and gaming use:

Aquamark 3
3dMark2001
3dMark2003

If you are testing pc performance:
SiSoft Sandra
PCMark2004
PCMark2002

*Note: SiSoft has many benchmarks testing anything from CPU power to internet connection.
