riws Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Looks like a Problem with nVidia Cards? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/181436-whats-up-with-opengl-in-snow/#findComment-1234106 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cparm Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 i think that xbench is not a viable bench app (too old), have you test opengl performances with others bench applications ?

Dr. Hurt Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Are you guys using 64 or 32 bit. Try check the performance in 32bit and compare it with 64bit.

SA22C Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 My XBench scores were the same in 32 and 64 bit. I'll try some other benchmarks later on tonight if I get a chance.

KariNeko Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 OK here we go: OpenGL Extensions Viewer 3.14 Leopard standard Leopard benchmark selected Snow Leopard 32bit standard Snow Leopard 32bit benchmark selected Snow Leopard 64bit standard Snow Leopard 64bit benchmark selected This is on a Geforce 7300GT, Leopard is a little faster than Snow at most tests on the benchmark.

antic Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I have a 9500gt and have achieved results very similar to you in Snow Leopard. I am surprised that my 3.0 test also failed as my card is supposed to be 3.0 compatible.
