I got 5.0. But thats because of my processor ;-D Processor: 5.0 Memory (RAM): 5.9 Graphics: 5.9 Gaming Graphics: 5.9 Primary Hard Disk: 5.8 The final score is the lowest category score so me it's 5.0 Some games are classed with that like: Assassin's Creed: Minimal:5.0 Recommended Score: 5.0 Gears of War: Minimal: 3.0 Recommended: 5.0

For example a 9600, 7950, and a 8800 will all get 5.9, but they all have different performance characteristics. 3d Mark 06 will get you a good idea of your computer's "graphics" performance. The score that really matters, is how much FPS can you get in a game with how high of settings. That's what matters. Back on topic, I see you have a very nice computer going there. The 9600 is a damn good card too! Edited by Dark Warrior, Jun 29 2008, 10:01 AM.

The 9600 is a damn good card too! Yeah but I had some damn problems with the drivers. First off the cds installed the drivers for XP so I had to manually install the good drivers when I had no internet. Then the Nvidia drivers have some problems (and I'm talking about the drivers made for my card eh...), for example on oblivion, I can't turn on the shadows and if I activate HDR, all the screen is blank with only one color showing...So I had to install the Asus drivers which are working perfectly although every time I restart my computer I must reinstall these because somehow the Nvidia drivers problems come back... Hehe, what a mess eh? :P
