I'd probably care more if I knew what I was supposed to be looking at. :p

EDIT: Found the link. DX9 benchmarking? Interesting. Love to see what talented artists are going to be able to do with that kind of graphics power.

Overdone lighting and bump mapping gives everything a really fake, cheesy look, IMO... But so many companies are doing it.

You're in for quite a disappointement.

All of the 3dmark tests are cheesy, you can see that they are just making generic goofy video game scenes and are not aiming really for aesthetic appeal, but rather to stress computer hardware.

"You have seen Xbox 2? How does it stack up to this still picture?"

While we don't have Xbox 2 specs, I've got to agree. Unless Xbox does 1600x1200 progress resolution with at least 4X FSAA.

However, Xbox2 will have DX10.

I get 11k on 3dmark03 and I don't even have a great system. I'm guess I'll get about a 15 (no, not thousand) on this.

Surface and lighting effects are more important than resolution and AA.

If that's a dx9 benchmark, why the hell wouldn't it? Xbox2 should be just as good if not better. New video chipset better than anything out right now + 3 core cpu + being able to take advantage of all that to it's full potential = games that look better than anything a pc can do now (game, demo, or benchmark).

If you got over 10K in 3Dmark03, you must have a 6800s or X800 video card which means you have a great system.
