I doubt that everyone has put up their results on the page  
Hmm, just 1020mhz, I bet theres alot of people who has more.

Why would you want to make a nice crisp 1600x1200 screen blurry with anti-aliasing? =)

Yep, I agree with Fishu..

There must be many around who play aces high at or over 1.5Ghz nowadays.. =)

I for one intend to be one very soon.

OH, you mean you plan to buy a P4 Mr. Sid and go slower.  

Because of it's FAR superior FPU the Athlon series processors will top that benchmark for some time to come.  For Ah at least 1.1 Tbird = 1.5 P4.

As for me, my monitor is what limits my frame rates.  It's stuck at 85 Hz Max, which means that I get 85 fps pretty much all the time.

I suggest you update that results page, wonder what happens to the 1600 res result you send in, as it does not show it.
Btw mine is 44fps at 1600 res with these test conditions, of course in flight its much higher and maxes out at monitor refresh.
Now back to our regularly scheduled broadcasts,
TAKA TAKA BOOM !!!

Hiya Bloom, that test referred to is run with V-sync off so the monitor refresh does not come into the equation.

Doesn't seem blurry to me  
21" monitor for these old eyes though..
and I still can't see squat !  hehe

[Gunslayer]

Man, I gotta get a bigger monitor. 21" , i am jealous  

[hazed-]

21" is too big for a desktop monitor! My mates got one and because you have to sit that much closer to the screen you feel like you have to physically move your head to follow the action!   i got neck ache trying to see everything that was going on hehe

Seriously tho it looked good but was just over the top in screensize for me.Plus the thing is a huge size and takes up half a desk !
19" is my limit unless its flat screen

No Bloom in fact I'm planning to build a watercooled t-bird system and hit the 1.5Ghz mark. If I'm lucky enough to get a decent cpu that is..

[MrSiD]

And Bloom: I thought people turn vsync OFF when benchmarking.. don't they?

[TheWobble]

I had a 21" at work for CAD stuff and that thing drove me nutts, i dont want anything over 19" EVER.

its hard to explain why but mess with one for a few weeks and you will know what i mean.


that damn thig was GIANT too..I just know it gave me cancer.
