Hello everyone,

I'm trying to figure out what to make of my 3DMark test. Do the people that use 3DMark even the typical gamer or are the other's scores skewed in some way?

I know I don't have a high-end system, but its still able to run BF4 and Total War: Rome II on highest graphics just fine. However, am I really only 24% better than all results? Is it because I'm running the Extreme test and the only people running that test are the really high-end computers?

Any help would be appreciated. I would just like to see if this application is even worth anything.

Thanks!
 
A lot would depend on how old your computer is. If you have an Older computer with older, but good Components and a lot of newer stuff starts testing, then they will test higher and push you down the list. It's all part of the ever evolving world of technology. You can be at the top of the heap and a year later be closer to the bottom as the newer stuff is adopted.
