I was trying reverse psychology,:D but look at it this way it will give him a good chance to take over the number one spot if he gets one.:D

Very nice. From what I've seen here it seems like that video card penalizes people a little bit in this bench. (but not '03) I know that must have taken quite a bit of tweaking, making your score that much more impressive.:D

Congrats!!!!

I told you, you can do it!!!!

I'll update later today... I am formating my main machine at home now and I cannot update until it is done :)

Hey C man, did you see the post about the Cat 3.8's coming out Wedneday? That's gonna be sweet. These are supposed to be some pretty good drivers.

5900Us thrive on 03, you shouldn't have a problem getting past your present high with some tweaking. ;) :) Holy...just checked the team link, you're the 3rd guy with a 5900U rig to get past 20k:eek: really good job there!!!:D

I reformated my hard drive last night and went back to DX8.1 and using the same drivers and settings only got a 14 point increase. When I done this with my 4200 I gained around 200 points, I guess it don`t matter with the 9800, if your using DX9 or DX8.1

It does matter... Try CAT 3.2 with DX 8.1 and you will see a hike in your score :)
