my 3dmark06 score...

I thinks its stupid that 3DMark06 also includes the CPU benchmark. The best way is to compare only the video benchmarks seperate.

I don't think it's stupid, this way it actually compares how well a computer holds up in gaming, and shows where a potential bottleneck is.

If you want to compare just video card scores, they do tell you what the SM2 and SM3 tests are.

you don't play 3dmark06 with your video card, you play video games with you video card. It doesn't matter what os you have if you don't get better fps.

what do you mean? i cant tell if you are agreeing or disagreeing? or coming from left field, or what?

im saying that a benchmark is just a benchmark even though vista may hurt 3dmark06 scores. Actual ingame performance is the best bet.

very true, but vista does hurt FPS.

But it also does help FPS sometimes...
