I don't have any CRT's to try...:-/
i use a crt which i think will go to 100Hz...will try that on X2 when it shows up
I have a CRT that can do 150Hz...
On the other side my time is very limited, and I'd rather spend it on a article/review that I came up with.
But I'm enticed to check this thing out soon.

This is getting ridiculous... bumping your refresh rate gives serious boosts

Heh, heh, heh........I powned you all.....I moded a CRT doing 350Hz......
INTEL PWA FOR EVER
Dr. Who my arss...
.........
Did anyone tested the dpi of the mouse??.....
...does it give more on 2k3??.....If yes, I have to mod that too......

I have 2*MSI 4870X2 and 2*Powercolor 4870X2 and of course reference.
MSI card is slow than Powercolor in GT2/GT3, i was thinking different bios did the BUG
BUT no........then i flashed Powercolor's bios(its simply reference bios) on MSI.......the situation don't change
what is going on here ???
In this 5 days this 4870X2s are make me from normal person to crazy.
I think I have found something. If I use higher resolution than default (1280x720) I will get the same boost as these guys got. I think this issue is all about resolution and monitor scaling. I have 16:10 monitor and if you force it to 16:9 or something else, you will get the boost.
Question is, which monitors give you the right score with default resolution?
I have to test more now.
You are as good as your samples are!
Funny...I'm using 1024x768 on a native 1680x1050.
YES!
Exactly what I was experiencing: running the benchmark, get a sudden boost, which is reproducable all day long. Turn down the system, turn it back on and the boost is still there ... untill you shut down the power completely by switching off the PSU (or pulling the power cable).
Somekind of electrical problem?

Okay, this is becoming waaay too weird to handle now.
It's time to hand pick monitor.
Electrical as in flow of electrical current .
If we assume the high scores are bugged, it would be really weird that so many people have these bugs and that the bugs can be repeated as long as you don't shut off the PSU from the power circuit of your house. If, however, we assume that the low scores are the bugged ones, it seems strange that so many people are actually getting bugged runs all the time.
Gautam, could you conduct the same tests I did, using the same testing procedure? If yes, I'll send you the xls file I used and give some quick guidelines.
