    Hi all,

    Is 10,426 a good score with the following spec? I'd be interested to know what the guys with the 2.5 cpu's & 8800 gtx are getting or have got previously?

    m15x
    2.8 cpu
    8800 gtx
    120gig hdd
    4gig ram

    What hotfix patch are you talking about?

    That is a very good score if you are doing it without any overclocking. I will it out when i get home tonight.

    Oh and I also - defrag'ed the HDD and restarted the system before I ran the application if that helps.

    that score sounds right for your rig. i've only got the 2.5ghz CPU and get 10,006, so your score makes sense. i wouldn't worry about it.

    At what resolution ? If it's 1024x768, then that's pretty normal...

    Yup can only select 1024x768 on free version I think - man that extra money for the 2.8 cpu doesn't go very far.

    well the x9000 would go further if they didnt take away the only reason to have the x9000 which is overclocking.

    Hey guys, the hotfix doesn't doesn't affect the resulting 3dmark score. It says so on the website.
