All other apps turned off, and all settings default. I didnt look, maybe I should have, cause when I left, the test was running, when I came back 10min later, my comp had shut off.
Ouch!
Im gonna watch this time to see where it dies. Ill post when I know...

according to jakk's review article, 3dmark03 used several hundred thousand polygons per frame, this uses several million...soon there will be computers that will run this benchmark smoothly, just as there were when 03 came out.

Radeon 9500 (non-pro) 128MB
1 GB PC3200 (dual channel)
All settings default

Ive only run once but scored 2552 running full performance settings.
cool. id be happy with a 2500 to 3000. btw, does neone know how 3dmark 03 or 05 score on Windows 64-be? i would assume worse because there hasnt been as much driver research and coding for the 64-be, but who knows. i havent upgraded yet because, honestly, im chicken that the drivers wont work as well, or programs will have issues, or (heres the big one, as my card is an All-In-Wonder and it already *****es when i change its drivers) that the beta Catalyst drivers will have issues with me AiW card. oh well, anyone have any input?

I dont think they can run on windows 64 bit, only a 32 bit program i'd assume...
*Edit*
Perhaps you might be able to give it a shot:
"We were able to run a few 32-bit applications and benchmarks, and will discuss those in the performance test section. As we noted, 3DMark 2001SE ran with hardware T&L enabled"
However this was on a PC that hadn't been rebooted for 3 days and its windows XP install was about 9 months old.
I'm going to do a reinstall over the next 3 days so I'll see if I can get anything better after that.
Athlon XP 64 3200+
512Mb
Radeon 9800XXL OC'ed to XT
I'm also about to get an Athlon 64 3500+ plus an additional 512Mb for 1Gb total, hopefully that'll get the numbers up a bit.
-edit- 2730 after a reboot, but my system is still chock full of crud.

Seems that the reviews are right when they say its video card limited rather than RAM or CPU.
In which case it isn't really a gaming benchmark. You'd sure not want to run doom3 on a 2000 Athlon XP with 384Mb, even with a top of the range video card.
