I've run the new 3D Mark and it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
It was a huge download, and didn't run all that well on my system. Yes my score was respectable, mostly because I do have a DX 9 class video card, but the experience of sitting there watching the demo through wasn't. It stuttered and the framerate dropped al the way down to 1 in places.
Despite that I got 3217 which is pretty good, at least compared to many systems out there.
But for this huge download-- I got much less functionality than in 3DMark2001SE. I can't save to a text file, so I can see my results properly for myself. I can't even change the resolution, or select tests not to run. In 2001 I could deselect the tests my Gf2MX couldn't run for a better comparison of simple speed against the Radeon 9500 Pro (I know the 9500 Pro owns it).
I can't do that in 03.
It's much less than I expected, especially after all the hype. All it needed was an FX Flow cooling system to make it perfect.

1550 3dmarks.
I ran it at 5:40 AM before I came to work. I couln't upload the file, as the servers were probably way over-flogged. Later on I'll post a compare URL.
I think the real reason Nvidia hates it is that it's a DX 9 bench and they don't have any DX 9 cards out yet. Seeing as I've yet to see a GfFX for sale anywhere, it doesn't really exist yet.
I couldn't have stated it better myself. I was thinking this exact sentiment in traffic today.
Nvidia abandoned Futuremark's ship in December because they knew their FX wasn't even close to ready to compete with Radeons today. They of course wouldn't admit defeat, so instead pulled a liberal maneuver and attacked Futuremark, stating their benchmarking tool is "inefficient" in its vertex shader engine. Then there's Nvidia not putting their FX card on the market. This just tells me that Nvidia lost this round, and it's not Futuremarks' fault.

3dmark 03 doesn't like my setup. Since I have a 64mb card, I get stutters every few seconds as textures are swapped into my card.
I won't even post my score. . .
This is where my signature would go if I wasn't so lazy.

Has anyone with a geforce 4 tried the new 42.68s?
Here's the link.
