UR JUST JEALOUS!

I doubt he is jealous.....last time I heard, the man owned x800xt pe (that lucky bastard!!! hehe)

BTW, GG what is your 3dmark01 score with your card at 1600x1200 4AA/8AF?

Maybe ppl should start testing the new cards at that setting to really show their power.

cuz 23000 3dmark01 doesnt sound as nice as 15000 marks at 1600x1200 4AA/8AF :D

That would be prett crazy. OC'd my BFG 6800GT tonight 4.11/1.12 and it ran 3DMark03 no problem. Score improved from the 10,000 level from stock setting to 11,579 with the OC. I'm a happy camper and Far Cry looks amazing!!!

BestBuy has just processed my order for the BFG 6800GT. It was on backorder until today. Can't wait to get it.

18000 3dmarks?!!?!!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow. Here I am trying to reach 15000. What card/ clockspeeds? Your card comes up as a 6800, so something is wrong there.

I think the Athlon 64 has a lot to do with it.

I have a P4 3.0 w/1gb ddr400 dual ch. and 62.20 beta drivers, the 6800gt is o/c to 425/1130 and I got 11135

Uh, I have a A64 3400 and I'm having a hard time breaking 13.3k

My guess it that its probably some insane sort of cooling with a massive overclock.
