well, i can't find a previous thread, so here we go!

3DMark Vantage is a PC benchmark suite designed to test the DirectX10 performance of your graphics card. We’ve been making 3DMark for over 10 years, with each new edition using the latest 3D technology to determine real-world performance.

A 3DMark score is an overall measure of your system’s 3D gaming capabilities, based on comprehensive real-time 3D graphics and processor tests. By comparing your score with those submitted by millions of other gamers you can see how your gaming rig performs, making it easier to choose the most effective upgrades or finding other ways to optimize your system.

3DMark is widely used by the PC industry, press and media as well as individual users and gamers, for comparing performance levels between whole systems or even specific components.

This is the basic test with the trial version

I wanted to try the benchmark but it won't run under Windows 7 as far as I can tell.

**EDIT**

I must have had a bad download because it installed fine this time.

How did you get it to install? I get an error message saying it needs Vista SP1. I'm downloading it again right now, now you've got me wondering.....

i mean, you can see in the screenshot it lists Windows 7 Beta as the OS, i dunno, make sure you get version 1.0.1 and have 7 updated i guess

also, it may be that i have 32bit?(i had 64bit installed a couple days ago, but went to 32 when i realized my other stick of RAM died, so didn't really have a reason to have 64)

My bad, must have had a corrupted download because it installed fine this time.

Here's my score on the trial version.
