Me too, I can only get 1700 in 2003. Might just about make 200, if i'm lucky
Luckily 2005 is WAY too big for me to even think about downloading

My main reasond 4 getting a 6800 Ultra is that it has SM3 AND the main reason is that Quake 4 will be OpenGL and will be alot like Doom3..and who is the best in OpenGL...how many games were built on The Quake engine...yeah
U got it, NVIDIA!
But I must admit if the Ati's were good in OpenGL then they would really perfom...but I suppost the point is...THEIR NOT.

Guess so, but it will still be WAY better than my current system.
Based on the scores of other people, I might score about 3000

No, no,
I mean the extra one
Come to think of it, SLI in his system would be impossible
Pretty sure his system doesn't have duel PCI Express
