This could fit in graphics, cpus, overclocking and cooling really so I put it in general.

I ran Vantage 3D mark yesterday and get the following. I left all settings at default. This is with a [email protected] and 8800GT@720, 1020memory

P8027
GPU - 6407
CPU - 33191

Something must be incorrect here. The CPU score look way too high and the GPU score is almost as fast as some of the more recent graphics cards :confused:

If you leave PPU on then a nVidia GPU will take over for CPU test 1 and do it much better than the CPU can because of the nature of the test.

Heres an example with my system:

PPU on

PPU off

i7 920 @ 3.8GHz + GTX280 SLI

I believe it utilises one of CUDA or PhysX.

That would explain it, so are you suppose to have it on or off? I left my settings at default then pressed run

edit - where do you set this PPU setting?

Depends why you are running the test really. If you want to compare systems with each other then everyone should run with it off, otherwise the CPU and overall results are completely skewed.
