3D Mark 2003 Sparks Controversy

Posted by chrisd on from the ati-still-needs-mark-v dept.

cribb writes "3DMark 2003 is out, sparking an intense debate on how trustworthy its assessment of current graphics cards is, after some harsh words by nVidia and the reply from Futuremark. THG has an analysis of the current situation definately worth reading. The article exposes some problems with the new GeforceFX previously mentioned in a slashdot article on Doom3 and John Carmack. Alas, here seems to be no end to the troubles with the new nVidia flagship." If you've run the benchmark, post your scores here, and we'll all compare.

    Actually, that's what I did instead of spending my time with a pointless benchmark. My computer works fine for everything I need it to do.

    I got a score of 1337, of course. This shit is for people wanting to compare penis length without actually whipping it out.
