PCs compared to cars are nothing... one proper turbo = this system's worth...

The guy is STILL complaining about the drivers after he smashed the record..

Cars are nothing compared to flat and house prices in Latvia. Afaik, its highest in all EU countries. I wish i was born in USA.

Once again, ATi pwns everyone.. :ohwell:

And that's how it should be! :toast:

Oh man, I just drooled all over my new kb.... :roll:

That is wicked.

Too bad we ALL can't afford $10,000 setups cooled with liquid nitrogen.

its 1024x768
desnt even support my lcd that res anymore

would like to see 1680 and 1920 performance

Nitrogliserinits 1024x768

Because thats the default res of 3Dmark 05. O6 is at 1280x1024, and i assume 07/08 will use a higher res when it comes out.

Edit: no i dont think it will, according to the steam survey, its very obvious the majority of people have 1280x1024 as a max res (17/19" LCD) so thats where its going to stay for a while

im thinking why 3d mark o5, i use it for benching coz i have a x850! they they are x2800, shouldnt they be breaking records in 3d mark 06 and some dx10 benchs?

I was just thinking the same thing

Maybe you will be wondering, that 3dmark01 is more popular than 3dmark06, because 01 is really CPU independent, and you must tweak your system very hard to get good scores. 3dmark06 is boring.

Seems that you wouldn't understand word "benchmarking" at all.

How much would two 8800 Ultras etc in that spec probably score??

demonbrawn

what kind of mark to you get in o5?

demonbrawnI was just thinking the same thing

Do you want to add your '06 score to the thread in my sig? :)

I was wondering exactly the same, from what I have seen on other forums the 8800GTX let alone the Ultra single cards often beat the 2900XT's so would be really interested to see 2 Ultra's in that rig and how they would compare.

Even the GTS beats the X2900XT , the GTX beats it in 8 out of 10 tests and the Ultra beats it on every test by a large margin :P
My guess is that its just another ATi trick to draw peoples attention......

He's not going to have a problem getting parts now! AMD/ATI will probably send him anything he needs! :D

Perhaps that was the deal all along ;)

Would be nice indeed :rockout:

I could even live with a 2900XT if it was free! :D

HellasVagabondEven the GTS beats the X2900XT

In your dreams - yes. In reality - no.

hahah but don't we all like our dreams.

And you think that Kinc doesn't have 8800Ultras? Let me laugh out load this time :laugh:

KasparzSeems that you wouldn't understand word "benchmarking" at all.

oh really?
I do understand this very well: "brain masturbation"
what would I do if I own 2005 3dmark world record?
whenever a new game out with 2005 graphics then people say it sux, its old gen.
now whats the point of still benchmarking it?

todays both high end cards are crawling in DX10 games such as call of juarez,lost planet
taking highest score in 3dmark 2005 isnt precious anymore (IMO (!)

Racing cars can hit 250mph. Drag cars can hit 350mph. And you don't complain about that? Are you riding 350mph with your car on road? Overclocking is like car racing, just pick different tracks and try to reach finish as fast as you can. Nothing else matters. Serious benchmarkers never play any game, ever. Overclocking is kind of sport.

KasparzIn your dreams - yes. In reality - no.

Look at the X2900XT threads , you will discover MANY benchmarks in which the GTS comes ontop :)
