Cue Impreza/lake pics, but I couldn't find this posted before...

3dmark 2003, from FutureMark (formerly Mad Onion) is out.

171MB download. Anyone tried it yet?

How will it run on my 32MB Geforce2 GTS? Anyone upgraded to something better and want to flog me their cast offs?

 

Sorry, couldn't resist this....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Apparently if you haven't got a top range geforce 4 or radion then badly.
I have a geforce 3 and I'm not going to bother running it.

 

I think you'll find the answer is that it doesn't like 'most' ()NVidia cards

it's not that, it's to do with directx 9 functionality and the GFX chips Pixel shader capability.
Most of the tests use Pixel Shader 1.4, however if it cannot find this it will use Pixel Shader 1.1 (where's 1.2 and 1.3???). An example being the second test - it will render approximately 150,000 polygons using pixel shader 1.4, but if it has to utilize Pixel Shader 1.1 then it will render approximately 250,000 polygons - thus slower animation and a lower score at the end of the test.

 

I have no idea what you just said, but it sounded good

 

M8, neither does he, so I really wouldn't worry about it!

 

LOL @ Footlong, do you want me to expel some effort and walk next door to slap you?
