It's funny you should mention it..I had the 2 300 raptors in raid 0 and had them split into Vista 64 and the Win7 RC program..The Vista would always beat the 7 when i was benching the 4870x2 Top...After the final win 7 came out I loaded the complete raid with the 7 Ult 64...In vista you could set for center timings when benching..With 7 it is a pain..You have to lower the reso. before it will let you enable gpu scaling...I think 7 doesn't recognize my 30 inch Dell. I wonder why Vista did and 7 doesn't??? I loaded the drivers for the monitor...Not sure why I have this problem...

What is center timings and GPU scaling?

In the ATI CCC you can go to display and tick enable GPU scaling and then center timing...It makes the screen the size of the 3D test you are running..Basicly it will help your score if you have a big monitor..Vista and XP would let you just go there and tick it...With 7, if you go there you can't tick it until you go to property's and bring your resolution down to like 1280 1024 and then go back and can tick gpu scaling...

It is like 7 doesn't recognize the monitor which is weird....

Using gpu scaling and the center timing in CCC will increase your score... If you have a large monitor it is a must..

Try it..I have a 30 inch monitor..2560 x 1600ish reso..running any of the Futuremark test would fill the screen and slow the score. Any monitor over 1280x1000ish would be more than you needed to run any Futuremark test..The center timing will increase your score...I just don't understand why it is harder in win7 than the others..:Dizzy:

I looked in CCC, but I don't see those options.
Does it only show for certain monitors?

If you are using the new CCC 9.7 thru 9.11

open the CCC
tick the graphics at the top and drop the menu
tick desktop and display
at the bottom you will see a small monitor with a black arrow pointing down, tick that
then tick the configure box.

This will have your options to enable GPU scaling. for everyday use you would want to keep the scale image to full panel size.
for benching you would want to tick center timings...

with Vista and XP I could tick these at anytime...with 7 they are there but untickable..I have to go to properties first..lower the resolution to 1280x1024 and then go back and can tick what I want...Not sure why....
This will increase your score or atleast it did mine...

OK, got it now.
Thanks, LS. :thumbsup:
