3D graphics performance testing program!

[Ice Cold]

Does this sound familiar to anybody?

There are some programs used for testing 3D performance of computers.

Basically it runs a 3D movie for some time... Or does different scenes which test different rendering capabilities of the computer.

One program I've seen was a bunch of Neos (from matrix) shooting each other under different conditions.

Do you have name/link to them?

Try 3DMark. Just google it and you should find the website.

The a bunch of Neos shooting each other was from 3DMark 2001.
Just to let everyone know how cool I am, my score on 3DMark 2005 is about 4000 or so.

Holy sh1t!

What computer do u have?

Mine is... way lower than that.

The score has a lot to do with your video card - most processors/boards/chipsets nowadays aren't usually the bottleneck.

The video card is usually the 'weakest link' in graphics processing, so you will see a substantially higher score by swapping in a new one.

I have a decent one... (far from top of the line)

What card do u have?

Hehe, yeah my system is pretty new, I have a Geforce 6600 GT with an AMD 64 3000+, 1024 of PC3200 DDR RAM and about 200 gigs of disk, it runs great.

ATi Radeon 9800 Pro
Pentium 4 2.4 gHz (it's a Pentium 4 'C' so I can overclock to 3+ gHz without any additional cooling - google it)
1 gig PC3200 DDR Ram
120 gig + 40 gig hard drives

I am very close to what you guys describe, but only got 1800

Oh well... I'm not gaming that much anyways.
