Yes, lowest score is 5587, look at cards frequencies and you'll know why is that. As it's been said here by me and others here numerous times, e6760 is slightly downclocked 6570 with GDDR5 (600 against 650MHZ), so if you and others are interested in seeing how it performce against other cards (4850 included) try other combinations on 3Dmark site and compare graphics score - for 4850 vs 6570 it's around 7500 vs 4600, so some 1.6x on default clocks. Not that I know why it matters so much, it's still some 2x better than PS360, though, if rumours are true at least 720 will be 3-4x more powerfull than that. |
Those lowest scores are done with standard clocks, 3dmark sometimes reads speeds wrong and puts in the clock speeds of the card in idle. It has done that with my scores as well, even with my cards heavily overclocked.
If you look at the 7000 scores for the 4850 you'll see that those scores have been achieved with heavily overclocked cards. I saw several with well over 700 MHz for the core and well over 1000 MHz for memory. The 9000+ scores don't show speeds at all.
Logic reasoning would have already told you that there's no way in hell a standard HD 4850 with a standard Athlon II X2 620 would outperform a standard HD 4850 with a standard QX9650. Certainly not by over 3000 points.
As for comparing the e6760 to the 6570, that's a flawed comparison for many reasons. And for the Vantage score we don't have to look at a 6570, the score is listed on the AMD site. It's 5870 so with 3DMark Vantage it's more powerful than a 6570. End of story.
