You can live in your little world. I don't go by 3Dmarks and never will and I'm not the only one to think that.

Whatever, it was you, not me who brought up the issue of why they ran 3DMark in Vista, not XP.
Wait, this discussion isn't about if 3DMark makes any sense...
:slap:

btw, what is it like in "your big world"?

Cinebench isn't technically any different from 3DMark. It's just another synthetic benchmark.

It's apparent there is some misinformation going around.
-The Crysis results are using DX10 not DX9
-The SS that Largon obtain are at the beginning of the looped benchmark therefore, it makes sense that those data points are not found in the final calculation THE BENCHMARK JUST STARTED!

Compare the minimum fps of the 8800gt and hd3870 in crysis.

You forget to notice that in the picture, the 3870's average is 1.16, but in the benchmark it says the lowest is 9 something. So, either the test is still screwy with the 3870s, or you should admit this guy cheated some #s. I just want accuracy, I'm not a fanboy, I get the better card, but if this guy is going to cheat #s, I don't want to be disappointed when I get this thing to find out it would have lost had the test results been fair.

How can you come up with such a conclusion when it's at the beginning of the benchmark loop?
Unless you are talking about a completely different benchmark? If it was towards the end of the benchmark an average could be obtained. I could see cause for concern but in that photo the benchmark just started. Why would you expect to see a calculated average in the dos pic confirming frame rates at the beginning of a benchmark loop? :shadedshu

Are these benchmarks done on a board that has pci-e 2.0? They may have a AMD 790 board or what not, but I don't see that anywhere. I see in their CCC pics. it says the bus type is pci-e 2.0, but then it says current bus setting is pci-e 2.0 x8. Does this mean the pci-e bus is not at the full 2.0 speed? If so the benches will surly increase on the new boards these cards are built for.

Maybe, maybe...but I honestly don't believe that it would. Remember this is a 256-bit card not a 512-bit. I honestly believe this may hold true for R680 though. However, even at 8x I don't think you will see much of a difference at 16x. But it doesn't hurt if someone posted some results :wtf:

It shows throughout the whole thing, obviously you haven't looked at your own pics.. :shadedshu
