To buy or not to buy


Should I purchase one of the 3dmark programs? If so, which one?

If you tend to change around your system alot i would say buy it. Since you can only keep 5 scores at a time, they can fill up fast when you wanna save some older bench scores. Myself i am about to buy 05', since its the newest one and all my projects are filled.

Unless your realy into benching different cards, and like to compare all the differences between them there realy isnt a need to buy any of them. Nothing in the 03, and 05 versions can help ya attain better scores, and the only realy functionality is to hold more scores. Basicaly thats not needed either.
