    ran 3dmarks on my new system...

    as some of you know, my 9800 AIW would NOT allow my system to power up, however, with a simple switch to a antec TP 430W, i rev'd right up

    after doing a bit of gaming and checking out the multimedia goodies i ran 3dmarks with all of my setting put on performance in display properties, and the 3dmarks on 800x600, 16bit, compressed textures, D3D Pure Hardware T&L, No AA, double frame buffer, and 24 bit z buffer depth with my 378/337.5 radeon

    my score was 18,040....
    are these the settings everyone else uses when they run 3dmarks?

    doesnt look good. run defaults and youd get like 16k marks on 2.2Ghz barton. you have much tweaking to do. I hope to beat you on a ti4200
