then you should know that they worked together with the makers of Max Payne, they also said that if your systems gets 2500+ in 3D01 you can run Max Payne at resolution x with max detail and get good performanceQuote:
i got into pc overclocking around the time of 01SE so i really dont know what it was like compared games when it first came out.
so yes it was very comparable to a game out there ;)
from 03 and onwards no such link was made; especially after all the driver cheating issues, which made 3DMark score irrelevant as a basis to gauge a system's performance in games.Quote:
Although the game tests were created with Remedy Entertainment's MAX-FX game technology, and the same tools and 3D engine that will power Max Payne, they are not available as stand-alone games.
