Do the options you set in the console remain through 3dmark tests or does the program load it's own video settings for AA, ASF, etc. based on the test it is performing?
Yes, the options you select remain. Such as, forcing AA and AF. I suggest, turning off all AA and AF forcing, set all optimizations on and image quality to performance. See what you score then.


I got a update! They are expecting the XFX's to come in today or tomorrow then they will ship it overnight! So I should have my card by Friday!

Hi Guys,

I've got a bone to pick with some of you....

So, I installed my 8800GT today, everything went well, I reached 13,500 3dmark 06, and everyhting was great. I tried OCing just a tad more, and it was unstable, so I restarted, and backed them down to what I had before, but....my score dropped to 8k...I tried again and again, 8k-ish every time..I've reinstalled, cleaned, swapped drivers...I just dont know where to go at this point, this blows....

Any ideas?

Hmmm, I uninstalled 3dmark, and poof, back to normal....The weird thing is, even other games were cut in performance, I was averaging less in FEAR than i was with my GTS...


Uninstalled and reinstalled 3dmark, and everything works fine...who knows?
