Since we're all Ubuntu Linux fans here and I am sure there are some that enjoy PC gaming and would like to see more Linux ports of our favorite games, I thought it might be fun to start a benchmarking thread in the hope that we can share tips and tricks (and bragging rights) on making our favorite platform even more capable. And for the record, I like to tweak my system but tend to lean towards the conservative side. Better to be safe than sorry So here goes: My glxgears score: 8,345 FPS My System- AMD Athlon 3200+ Winchester - clocked at 2.2Ghz (220 HTT) MSI Neo 2 Platinum Ultra motherboard, Nforce 3. MSI Nvidia 6600GT AGP, coolbits enabled, core 535Mhz, memory 1148 1 GB Kingston HyperX 200 GB Sata 1 So who can beat this, what are your specs and what tweaks did you do that others might benefit from. Come on, don't be shy!
zoiks scoob! i cant beat that: AMD 64 3000+ (2 ghz) 1G Ram Nvidia 5700LE 265M glxgears: 2800+
Cheerful Ghost - build your game list, write about awesome games and share that with the world. join us!
I averaged 4601 (excluding the first set) System: Athlon 2800+ @ 3200+ 9800 pro (8.12.10 drivers) 768MB ram

Hehehehehe... well here's mine: Average 412.6 Athlon XP 2500+ GeForce 2 MX 200 64mb 512mb DDR
Average: 8486.9 FPS AMD Athlon XP 2000+ 512M DDR 256MB GeForce FX 5950 Ultra NVIDIA 7664 Drivers - Rpg Cyco
Average: 3978 FPS AMD Duron 1.2 GHz 512MB DDR GeForce 4 Ti 4200 NVIDIA 7664 Drivers Wouldn't have thought that my aged system competes so well! I made just some minor tweaks that shouldn't help much here (swappiness=25, activated 32bit-DMA-mode for harddrive,...).

Damn, I'm only getting around 5000-6000 on an X800pro. Something's off. Oh well. (and I'd be happier if I could get it to fix at 70fps via Vsync...)
