Could someone please set a standard for all these 3d scores because frankly i`ve seen some and I just dont beleive them. Sorry ppl but I must say that I think ppl are either turning things on or of just to show off higher scores.

I stand corrected if i`m wrong,(but I don`t think so):cool:

People could be playing, but the scores are greatly determined by (2) things:

1--CPU -- the faster the better

2--Video Card -- the faster the better

I have found that, when I have a system running properly, my scores compare very well with others with the same CPU/video card. Next time you benchmark, takes your scores online / use the results browser.

Here's a screen shot of my score compared to others with the same video card:

Are you talking about the settings of the program used to get the benchmark? On the 3DMark programs the standard seems to be to leave everything at default. I think those have a "default test" button too.
