Post your Rig and the settings you play on guys`

[God]

i use an asus G73 as my second gaming rig. does pretty nice actually. real bang for the buck machine.

Mind me asking you which laptop that may be? I am in the market for one. I am going to head back to school after 10 years out lol.

That's the one!

Almost on max settings. But I do have a coolerpad under it because it'll run hothothot.

My Rig:
Asus Formula IV Motherboard
Phenom 965 X4 Black Edition 3.4 (O.C. @3.7)
Sapphire Radeon 5770 1G
4Gig Corsair Dominator 1333 Low Latency (Matched for Phenom) This 1333 Ram seems to react faster than 1600 with similar Latency
1T Harddrive, 7200RPM
Corsiar 850W (Plans for future upgrades)

I run all settings on High except shadows, which are on Standard. I have Ambient Occlusion and Depth of Field turned off. My FPS are 45-60. (According to ingame FPS, I was using FRAPS but it doesn't give a proper reading)
RAM is 40-50%
CPU is 40% @ 35 Degrees Celsius
GPU is 70-90% @ 40-45 Degrees Celsius (The 5770 Runs cool/low power usage, I had a 6970 Running at 20-30% @ 70 Degrees Celsius, Fan Speed @ 15%, some cards run optimal at high temps)

FFXIV Benchmark 4800 LOW 4500 HIGH ** AERO Desktop for Windows 7 Turned off
FFXI Benchmark 8995 HIGH

HEY EVERYBODY!! LOOK AT MY COMPUTER!!!!!!!!

I came here to say this.

[PepperMint]

My computer:
Asus Crosshair Formula IV Mobo
Phenom 1090T 6 Core @ 4.27GHz
4GB OCZ Ram @2000MHz
GTX 580 @ 950/1900/5000
750G Storage
1200W PSU
+CPU water cooled by H50

Play with all settings maxed, no dof, no ambeit O.
Use most of Nvidia's settings inclusing filtering 16x and AA 32x

60FPS all time when not in citys or crowded camps.
45-50FPS In Crowded Camps
30-50FPS in Ul Dah

Only get 5,300 on High benchmark.
If someone could tell what i need to change, that would be great. I'm thinking the change between intel and amd CPU's would add a couple thousand points to my benchmark score.

I'd recommend changing the Nvidia settings to "Use Application Settings". I'm not too sure how they work with the Benchmark. If you have it set to be Max through Nvidia and you run the Benchmark, then your score probably isn't bad. I'm not too sure what base settings the Benchmark uses. Have you run other Benchmarking programs? I see you have your CPU well overclocked and on H2O, but if you don't have your voltages right, then it may not be running as stable as it could. I'd recommend lowering your O.C. to 3.6-3.7 which runs fine on stock voltages to see if your score improves. I imagine you should be able to get high 5's or low 6's with that setup. Other than that, your gameplay seems to be fine with the specs you gave, so it's probably just the Benchmark is screwy.

I won the processor in a raffle held by Intel at a private screening of Iron Man 2.. couldnt sell it for 1.1k on ebay at the time.. so i made a Rig.. I probably spent 500-600 on my computer.. not bad.. seeing how its worth a shit ton

Turning Aero Desktop off made you get 8995 High Resolution? I really dont see how that is possible. I would like to see screens no offense or anything but a 5770 or a 6970 is not that much of a beast. I will try turning my Aero off which should give me like 10k if thats the case lol.

EDIT: I did not realize he said FFXI on the second round. I am sorry Judge I thought what you were telling me was that you got a 4000+ increase by turning Aero off lol. Please forgive me ^^

You would probably see an increase of about 500 I believe

EDIT: I took Aero off and put all my nvidia setting on performance mode and got and increase of 304 on High Resolution, and about 200 ish on Low Resolution.

New High Res Results -7768


New Low Res Results -8618
