nkumah 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2012 Hey everyone, So I want to get a better Novabench score and was wondering what can I do to get that with the current spec on my computer? My 3D frames per second sucks, Is that because of the type graphics card I have? and last I might be getting a SSD soon, would that possible make my score better?NovaBench Score: 471NovaBench Score: 471 Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Intel Core i3 M 350 2.27GHz @ 2266 MHz Graphics Card: Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator HD3893 MB System RAM (Score: 117) - RAM Speed: 5220 MB/sCPU Tests (Score: 319) - Floating Point Operations/Second: 101737500 - Integer Operations/Second: 230323332 - MD5 Hashes Generated/Second: 667254Graphics Tests (Score: 1) - 3D Frames Per Second: 3Hardware Tests (Score: 34) - Primary Partition Capacity: 454 GB - Drive Write Speed: 83 MB/s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nathan 71 Report post Posted March 1, 2012 Is this a laptop? If so, there's not much you can do about the graphics score. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deadzoo 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2012 A SSD will not "possibly" make your score better, it`s a certainty. Even if your machine does`nt have SATA 3 support you`ll still notice a major difference from the 83 MBps write speed you have now. With SATA 3 speed (6Gbps) Intel claims their 520 Series SSD`s can reach 550 MBps (read) / 500 MBps (write). Be prepared to pay about $2 a GB if you want one, I`ve been looking at the Samsung 830 Series it seems to have more bang for the buck. Does anyone reading this have any suggestions regarding which SSD`s have the best performance to cost ratio?Tolerance is a very dull and boring virtue, but it is essential to the completeness of character, which allows us to endure all the unpleasantness that exists in our diverse culture. - Rod Walsh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cch 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2012 The Graphic card is the problem. Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator HD can't support any modern games such as Diablo III and the upcoming Need For Speed Most Wanted (2012). It is the time to buy a new laptop/graphic card unless you don't play games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
