let's see how that system that broke the old 2003 record with 100k+ perform on this one.

trog100waiting for enough dorks to end up with vista is probably why they are so late releasing it..:laugh: :laugh: :eek:

good contribution to the thread :shadedshu
Vista is a good operating system especially in comparison to XP pre SP1...
I would hazard a guess at the first 3 screenshots being closest to actual 3dmark footage.

What I'd like to know is whether those fakes were setup by PCPOP or by Futuremark. Either way, someone needs to get burned for lying like that, not to mention for art theft. Those images belong to Salvo Triolo and Marek Denko respectively, and someone thought it quaint to put Futuremark's watermark on them. Just low...

Has anyone received and read the latest futuremark newsletter?Interesting read;)

Via NordicHardware: "3DMark Next is the name of the successor to 3DMark 06. The developers at Futuremark have been rather quiet about the upcoming 3D benchmark, but we do know that it will be Vista and DirectX 10 / Shader Model 4.0 exclusive.

Am I the only one who's hated that stupid airship thing since it's inception? Now they've added wings and taken away that annoying little man, huzzah.





The lizards especially though look sweet, too bad I'm not upgrading to vista anytime soon.

Yes, I agree with you.


The hardware website CHIPHELL has done a brief 3DMARK Vantage test. The test uses Build 23 version and Radeon HD 3850 512MB Crossfire. From pictures below, we can see that 3 DMARK Vantage Build 23 full installations require 665.25 MB disk space. Now 3 DMARK Vantage Build 23 includes Game Test1 Test, the name is Jane Nash, Game Test 2, the name is New Calico, and CPU Test1, the name is AI, and CPU Test2, the name is Physics, these two test CPU’s AI and physics acceleration performance.





From the fps and the quality shown in the pictures , we can say 3 DMARK Vantage is still in the beta stage, screen quality is not perfect, the picture is rather vague, at the same time, under the 1280 x1024 resolution, Radeon HD 3850 512MB Crossfire didn’t run very well.













Heard from other testers, that GeForce 8800GTX cannot run Game Test 2, compared with the fact that Radeon HD 3850 512MB Crossfire can run Game Test 2, it suggests that Game Test 2 -New Calico tests the DX10.1 capability of graphics cards. What a pitty for NVIDIA, when 3 DMARK Vantage comes out at next February, NVIDIA can only get GeForce 9600 GT out for 3 DMARK Vantage if D9E cannot support DX10.1.

direct 10.1 not support until vista sp1
so what reason 8800gtx cannot run game test 2

Now those screens look more like it, aliasing is there, but doesn't look ready yet. Needs some candy on top :) Doubt the Sapphire text will be therein the retail either :p

RavenasA benchmark app is a reason to buy vista? :wtf:

Is a top score a reason to go buy LN2?

hehe ;)
