I wouldn't worry about it, your 1995 PC with a 10GB harddisk probably
won't run the benchmark.

Myst4 is 2dvds, and an 8gb install. Time to upgrade!

well its more than eyecandy. I know there are always going to be
inconistancies if you compare 3dmark results with other peoples machines
(thus making these comparisons always unfair), however, if you benchmark
your own machines and tweaks to them, it is an incredably useful tool to
have.

It's also useful to test if you're set up is grossly out of whack. If
you're getting 2000 pts. less than someone with a similar rig, you've
got problems.

Just save yourself the trouble of the download and use this formula to
approximate your 3DMark05 score:

(($ paid for video card) ^ 2) / 40

Actually they're closer to the rhubarb family, with the plant's somewhat
triangular leaf blades serving as the drive platters. Sure they hold all of
your Lindsay Lohan JPEGs and Deep Space Nine episodes, but if stewed they
yield a tart sauce that can be eaten with sugar or used as filling for pies,
tarts and crumbles.

Heeey, somebody's lying here! Takes away only 591mb
from my HD, I must have some kinda lite-version then...

Got massive 1450 points, wohooo. Nice slideshow
indeed. But strange thing is, that fps is something like
3-5 during actual benchmarks but demo is hell of a
lot smoother!

Like I smell something... fishy... hmmm.

There is an install space requirement of 1+ Gb, maybe that's what rms
was referring to. Nothing new that the install process takes more space
than the final installation.

OK so what is "everything else" ?

Dawn of War demo (1024x768, all=high except
shadows=low), Doom3 (800x600/Medium, all advanced
options enabled except vsync), Thief3 (800x600, 2x
Multisampling, high textures&everything maxed).

And my hellish machine is Barton 2600+, 512mb ddr333
and 9600pro 128mb (450/330).

> Actually I was thinking you had an extra zero on that number

Benchmarked again, 1436 points. I suppose that's quite
good score, considering fps was something between 3-10
all the time and mostly 1fps during CPU tests

a got mostly the same set up considering that your video card is clocked at a 9800pro or xt
and that i got a 9800pro with no oc i'm happy to see that there is some physical law in this world.

a got 2400 point. ;-p

I get 2 a whooping FPS with a amd64 3000 on that test.
