    I'm looking forward to this as much as anyone.

    The screen shots do look fantastic. I think it will be the first significant DX9 Benchmark… You only have about 4 days to wait :)

    It’s truly brilliant to see what our rigs are capable of in real time…The nature test way back in 3D Mark 2001 still looks fantastic…imagine what they have come up with now ;)

    Hope it includes tips to improve scores other than comparing it with other pcs of same spec.

    nope. dx8.1

    doom III will run fine on all gef3 and onward cards, probs even gef2's, only diff newer cards features make is their greater fill rate and memory bandwidth, the rest does fa

    dx9 isn't even final like
