Very good point.

Or you can say that they should get the Demo in order to achieve acurate comparisons. SInce the full version has different tests, in addition to the ability to change settins, so that itself might affect the score.

The PRO version that you pay for do unlock some extra test settings to play around with yes, it does not however affect the 3Dmark score obtained when being run at the default settings.

Now back on topic.

You sure? I thought if you had the PRO version then the Feature and Batch Size tests were selected as default. I think i ran the Pro and Demo version of '03, and my score wasnt affected too much. So i guess the big thing is people changing the resolutions and AA.
