Post your 3DMarks06 scores

I can't get it to run on mine either, my computer slows down to an almost locked up type mode on the small startup screen where is say something like "check system, system may appear to be unusable for up to 1 minute" Well after a 30 minute run to town it was still very boggy and on the same screen and 3Dmark06 was still using 99% of the processor usage. My system SHOULD run it with a XP-M 2.4gig, 1 gig ram, and a X800XT AIW.

It actually won't run it because ATI x*** series cards don't support HDR or SM3.0. I'm glad I have a 6600GT 😀 (has SM3.0, HDR, etc)

EDIT: I haven't run it yet, I will be upgrading as soon as my new parts arrive, and until then, my comp is in pieces (took it apart to make installing the new parts easier). I am upgrading everything except my 6600GT right now, I'm waiting until G71 or G80 (depending on the wait) until I upgrade the graphics. the 6600GT will handle 3dmark06 and it's madly overclocked on a zalman vf-700cu so I *think* it'll last me until g71 at least.

EDIT2: oh yeah the specs on the new system

Opteron 165
Jetway 939GT4-SLI
2x1GB OCZ XTC DDR-500 3-4-3-8
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
Antec Lanboy Case
Western Digital 250GB 16mb Cache HDD
Zalman CNPS9500 (can't wait to try this baby out 😀)

I can't wait to begin oc'ing.

someone has posted scores up from an X850XT PE already, so I know it will work. The specs show 2.0 support also.

Soem of the tests still use SM2.0, but there are some that only SM3.0 cards can run... As for myself, if I can get it downloaded, I'll let my GS and GTX sweat... 😉
