...and looks damn good i might add. you need something powerful to run this but just for image quality sake, take a look at the "water level' image comparison. the one on the left is the 2005 one and the one on the right is the new 2006 one.

Downloading now, I'm guessing I'll get between 2200 and 2400 on the total score.

^ you ever have heat issues with that card in there? i dont mean the card itself but just the case in general. my overall temp went up like 5 degrees after that card was installed.

i just built the system and its the only card ever used. The card works great and i cant tell of any heat issues as of yet. the fan on the card is kinda loud but thats not to big of a deal.

Senez: thats probably cauz it takes into account your CPU as well so disabling things in the background that use CPU cycles is probably a good idea before running this

rogueleader: thats why you go to the program's website and compare your numbers with other people's systems to see how yours stacks up. you can even use it to judge what's a good upgrading option for the future.

lol, you think a synthetic benchmark will give you a good idea how a real game will run?

these things are nothing more than e-penis competitions and have little to no reliability

take senez's results for example. are you going to disable everything running in the background everytime you want to play a game? is his PC really "faster" because he disabled that stuff?

my post wasn't indicative of my wanting or needing to disable everything before i play BF2. i'm just seeing what happens when I tweak stuff. after that run, i installed beta geforce drivers and OC'd a bit and boosted it 200 more marks. for me it's more about a hobby than "oh, let's see how much i can increase my fps in CoD2"
