Sure you can use any setting you want but be sure to mention this in your post, or this thread will become rather useless to members wanting to compare their system with others. I've seen some more than questionable posts so far.
As of the current moment, the monitor that i have cannot support that resolution...i am in the process of purchasing a 20 inch widescreen
I did not know about the resolution having to be set at 1280x1024 so i will post a new score when i get my monitor

What do you think of this bench? I was able to get my cpu to 3.8Ghz, but it wasnt completely stable.
Lets keep this thread clean, 3DMark results only. The post will be deleted.

The mighty R580 currently burning in, so nothing is overclocked. Untweaked OS with all services running.

Wow Tweaker, when did you get that card? And if you dont mind me saying, but that was pretty dumb to get the XTX instead of the XT, since its only like 100Mhz slower.

And what was your overall score on that?

25MHz faster core, 100MHz faster memory to be precise.

Well this XTX was $15 more than the XT so what the heck.

how accurate is 3dMark06? i ask because previously my highest score was 2621 and i ran it again today, jsut for the hell of it without changing anythign in my computer (well, except my desktop image...yeah), and it jumped up to 2852. that just seems a little excessive for a margin of error. did i miss somethign or is that common?

Maybe then when your score was lower you were running some programs in the background and it took some of your RAM, I heard that 3DMark06 uses RAM alot unlike the previous versions, not sure though.
