The only thing that bothers me is that I've never heard of a processor like that. Can anyone provide me with some link so I can read something about it? An to R700's too as I'd be gratefull for it. Thanx.

i dont see why it would bother you... thats a great score. i mean damn i want hardware to be that good in a year! i got what... 1/4 of his score with the hardware that was the best (for a single card configuration at least) a couple of months ago. thats a really good score, im sure the software advances helped along with the hardware advances... say support for dx 10? lol

btw i'd like to mention that i didnt think the graphics in 3dmark06 were a WHOLE lot better... probably better lighting and shading but not much in terms of the 3d effect, and whos going to need the type of FPS that this hardware provides anyways? most games have a cap of 60-75 fps unless you hack it or go into the console and disable it. personally, i used to get like 500fps in halo when i had it installed.. i couldn't do anything because the damn aliens were so fast. i had to turn on vsync.

And even he goes so far as to make an effort to prove the score he made, you could have at least edited a score to make it look legit...
You mean mine doesn't look legit?

That shouldn't be the only thing that bothers you about it

Am I the only one who picked up on Cromewell's sarcasm in his original score post?

Can you take screen shot that displays your scores and your spec in 3dmark06!

You can move the score section over, and then you can see what 3DMark says the specs are. But as Cromewell showed, those can be easily edited

I'm still shocked only 1 person (2 counting omega but he didn't really say anything about it) asked about a core 3 octanium or R700
