HIS ATI Radeon X1950 turbo
Doing the tests run well (6144) but what is slowing it down is the CPU, with only bare minimum of services running I get 0 fps on either of the 2 CPU tests, resulsts were actually 0.8fps WOW!! I knew it would be bad but not this bad! Can anyone confirm if this is correct? Can this be improved without a new motherboard?
Thanks.
I had the same motherboard in Aquarius (my old gaming rig)...I liked it a lot for an AGP board. My brother's using it now.

Those CPU results are not unusual, and in fact, Shadowhawk got similar rates (even though its clocked higher and is a dual-core CPU). I wouldn't be worried about those numbers at all. Keep in mind that there is a lot of stuff going on in those demoes that is being completely loaded on the CPU: the timing of events, graphics, physics, etc.
