Purchased! :)
Now I need to finish work and try it out! 3 hours remaining ...:p:
Oh good. I can DL at work and burn it on a disk!! :)
trial = only 1 run
:down:
Funny, 3Dmark is THE standard benchmark and it's using all the newest technologies, yet I still think Crysis is alot nicer.
(except for the scale and cloth simulation)
UNFORTUNATELY YOUR KEY IS NOT VALID
Yes, it is, but it ain't working! :mad:
/Off to try a fifth time then...

lol i can not even run a benchmark due to the fact that i get a BSOD when it starts checking for system information. I really do hate Nvidia, their drivers really piss me off.
This might help...Quote:

A: This is a known issue in 3DMark Vantage 1.0.0. Please re-type the key and it should work correctly.
Q: I get an error when I start 3DMark Vantage 1.0.0 which says "Error occured in DLL. Error type: std::exception Error message: boost::filesystem::create_directory". Is something wrong with my system?
A: This is a known issue in 3DMark Vantage 1.0.0. The error only appears randomly on the first run of 3DMark Vantage. You can ignore the error as it doesn't affect your benchmark results.
Q: I ran 3DMark Vantage and got a score of P1020. What does "P" stand for?
A: In 3DMark Vantage you get a letter with each 3DMark score. E = Entry preset, P = Performance preset, H = High preset and X = Extreme preset. This was done to differentiate the presets.
Q: I purchased the Advanced Edition to benchmark my graphics card Anti-Aliasing performance. When I enable Anti-Aliasing in the settings, I get 0 3DMarks. Is it a driver issue or did I something wrong?
A: 3DMark Vantage outputs 3DMark scores only if you have selected a preset (entry, performance, high or extreme). If you select any settings outside the pre-defined presets, your preset is "custom" and no 3DMark score will be shown. You can use the graphics score to see the performance impact of Anti-Aliasing, or any other optional settings.
Q: I submitted a result to the ORB, but it says that my graphics driver is not approved by Futuremark. How can I get an approved driver?
A: At the time of launch, we haven't approved any drivers for 3DMark Vantage. This will be done as soon as official WHQL drivers will be publicly available from IHV's.
Q: My monitor doesn't support the performance preset 1280x1024 resolution, and thus I can't get a 3DMark score. What can I do?
A: You can purchase the Advanced Edition ($19.95) which enables you to select different presets which may suite your monitor better.
Install once, run once, no more runs @ RaZz!

If it is only one run for the trial then that isnt fair :(
the Basic edition is only $6.95 = £3.50.
I'll wait a while before getting it though.
If you reinstall the trial version, can it be run again?
Is this worth it? Exactly what are the real world improvements. I want end-user input, I can read manufactures's info.
Read a review ( hint hint, software reviews section @ homepage :p: )
