3dmark 2006

Random I know, but thought it would make for some good banter. Better still for all you overclocking whores a score from stock and maximum stable. Searched for something like this but found nothing. I've yet to run it, although not going to win any medals that's for sure. Will also post mine when my rig's running properly

3dmark06 is out of date, and doesn't give representative scores when you're using the latest hardware. There are also lots of threads already on it and on it's successor, 3dmark vantage.

vantage is only any good if running vista, which from my experience, no one really likes.

Yes its Vista only which is fine for the record and I do know people who like it bar poor initial media coverage, , but vantage will show rough differences in cards, whereas 06 sometimes shows new cards as weaker as it is too heavily cpu bound, vantage isnt and shows off new cards more effectively.
