Oh... yeah... And he is using Windows 7 which makes his score even less believable.
 
Please guys, help me by reporting his score.
 
Here are the reasons to use in the report:
1) Lacks verification URL
2) Lacks photo evidence of computer setup
3) Scores are unbelievable given the GPU clock speeds, CPU and CPU clock, and operating system used.

I don't think a verification link is required

His score calculates correctly according to the FM 3dm06 score formula.  Either the run is bugged, or those aren't his real GPU clocks.

Or he knew the formula and photoshopped the result.

Hmm. Fair point Ty.
 
Q, how do you get hold of that formula? Very interesting.

There's also a link on XS, but the site is down right now.  The guy wrote a little app you can DL and put your subtests in to calc the score for ya.

Thanks guys!
 
I now own the 9400GT crown all around!  (in modern benchmarks)

Maybe it is time that I get 3dmark01 to complete the 9400GT conquest.

BTW, if you look at my recent HWbot photos, you will see that I am using the second PCI-E 16 slot.  Why?  The first one has quit working some time over the month of sitting dormant.   Why would the upper PCI-E slot quit working while sitting unused?  Any ideas?
 
When I have a card installed in the first PCI-E 16 slot, the card's fan spins, but BIOS never POSTs and the monitor never turns on.

Can you turn off the 16 slot on that MSI board?  dipswitch somewhere thrown by mistake??  I don't know MSI.  Or somehow getting some condensation from the nearby SS?  Dry it out real good and pack some PJ in the slot

Well, I hadn't even phase change cooled a video card before the slot quit working.  I just had the board sitting unused with a card in it.  When I tried to boot it up months later, the slot wasn't working.
 
Umm... I will have to look around the BIOS.
