[Brew_WY]

I downloaded 3DMARK and it won't run, does anyone know of a reliable link to download the demo from???? I am curious to how good my POS really is. your help is appreciated.

Click on one of the links on the bottom of the page, one of them should work, there's about 50! LOL It's the free full basic 3dmark06, which is the latest one, hope this helps.

That is the site I went to, I have downloaded it from 2 different sites and it hasn't worked properly yet. I have it downloading again. thanks for the response.:beard:

I just ran my 3dmark test. And my FPS sucked.

Graphics Tests
1 - Return to Proxycon 8.673 FPS
2 - Firefly Forest 10.159 FPS

CPU Tests
CPU1 - Red Valley 0.364 FPS
CPU2 - Red Valley 0.582 FPS


what should I do???

dude, its supposed to suck. 3dmark06 is supposed to push our comps to the absolute limit. CPU benchmarks on 3dmar05 averaged 1-5 FPS, and high end vid card benchies id say right around 20-30. You got the exact performance you should be getting

What was your overall score? Mine was something like 1127 I think. Mine sucked aswell, I'm going to upgrade my graphics card to a 7800gs soon and I'm hoping that might sort it out. When you've run 3dmark06, compare them online and see what everybody else is getting. You can compare them with people with almost the same set up as you. Anyway don't worry about it too much, as long as your happy with the way your games are playing etc who cares.

Well I didn't know that it was suppost to push our systems that much. I think my overall score was somewhere in the 1100-1200's. Thanks for the input.

That score seems fine but have a go at comparing it online and see what other peoples are.

Well I tried comparing it to other peoples systems, but when I submitted my search criteria it just gave me some weird java script/code that I don't know what it means.

Here is my complete 3DMark results.

Interesting. I got 1851 with my 6800 vanilla. Maybe '06 is much less ATi biased? You probably kicked my butt in '05.
