I only got 919 3DMarks and the test didn't even bother with Mother Natuire. It would seem the DCC has already outlived its usefulness.


Future Mark is a banned website here at work for some reason, but I downloaded the application last night and gave it a run through. I'm on a P3-1130 with 768 megs of PC-133 RAM and a GeForce4 Ti4400 that I bought because it made the water in Morrowind look so good that I would weep at screenshots of it during previews.

Well, now I'm weeping because this thing only kicked out around 1500 of these 3DMarks and it wouldn't even start the Mother fucking Nature test. It also failed to successfully upload my full results to that website, so I don't have the specifics, but I did notice that it choked on my AGP apeture like on Barbie's machine. When I purchased this nVidia product, I was under the impression that they were the 1919 Chicago White Sox of video processor manufacturers and that they were going to do everything possible to cheat at these benchmarks. Instead, I'm getting doubled up by ATI patrons and directly insulted by nVidia by their presuming that I am turned on and slobbering by a half-naked, short-haired, goth elf girl. Regardless of how accurate that might be, I guess I'll be buying a new card for Doom III after all due to the fact that I was averaging 5 frames per second in the Troll's Lair test there, and I have nothing but incentive to get that new one from ATI.


the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey!
