Image quality doesnt seem to have increased over the 3.7's nor does speed/performance, if anything it just seems to be a lot of compatibility fixes, addition of new driver control features and an overhaul to the control panel

I do like how you can save different custom settings, instead of manually changing each time you want to change. The filters are fun to play with, I don't know how practical they are though. Just played a little black and white halo :cool:
bblqj78,
i tried setting my drivers for optimal performance as you suggested, and i only gained 54 marks........went to 4305. this is my first build, and all this stuff is new to me, so i am still learning. i am open for any suggestions to boost my score without OCing. thanks :t
Hmmm...funny. Make sure and do this on both the OpenGL Tab and the Direct 3D tab. You should get a lot more...make sure vertical sysnc is disabled.Quote:

I though, 3DMark is Direct 3D only.Quote:

I think it is
3DMark03 is specifically a DX9 benchmark, not OpenGL.
Yes, I had both Open GL and 3D Direct set for optimal performance, and vert sync disabled............:(
After upgrading to the Cat 3.8 from 3.2 drivers...
I ran 3dMark 03 demo. Amazing concidering it wouldnt start before, sumink was up with it.... but i remember when i last run the demo, there was quite a bit of stuttering, and the quality wasnt good.
The quality is massivley improved as well as the performance. But remember.... thats from Cat 3.2 to 3.8! :p
and what was your score cwin?
Dunno.. ran the demo :pQuote:

I can tell its faster tho
Thats the quality i get at full quality in 3d mark
still getting used to the drivers in the new catalyst
4401 3d marks
just set stuff to optimal performance, need a defrag, running plenty of programs and stuff... havent o/c'd
Ill get better :p
ATi 9700 np
alright i suppose... ill get better
(i was getting 3000 sometimes before):t
