    3dmark01/PcMark04 challenge! You can win a BFG 6800, GT, or Ultra. Ends Jan 8th!

    I was searching a random forum and came upon this:
    http://www.pcpitstop.com/news/challenge.asp

    This website is having a 3dmark01/PcMark 04 challenge. There is another test titled "PC Pitstop test" though I don't know exactly want it is. Anyways, the three categories and three prizes are listed below.

    Stock - BFG 6800
    OC'ed AMD - BFG Ultra
    OC'ed Intel - BFG GT


    I'm not trying to boost their site, but I guess I am kind of by posting this. I am in no way affiliated with there website. I just saw a good offer and thought you guys might be interested. I believe no one here has heard about this challenge because the highest score currently in their database is 36,027 for 3dmark01. I know some of you guys already have a higher score than that. You guys can win a free videocard. The challenge ends January 8th 2005.

    Click below for the top 10 people so far:

    Thank me after you win your videocard.

    I guess. LOL, I just happened to come across that website in a thread at a christian forum. I'm surprised none of you guys have heard about it. It seems relatively simple and straight forward. Run the tests, and if you have the highest overall score you win a free videocard. I know you guys own Futuremark programs so this should be a cinch.

    This should be an easy win for one of the top guys here.

    Who feels like firing up their cascade for a new VC?

    I don't know why this thread switched to the computer related open discussion forum. It was previously in the Xtreme overclocking forum.

    Cause the link is sending you to another site/forum. The rules actually say no outside linking. So it's moved to a quieter section of the forum.

    Sorry about that. I didn't know how I could get the offer out without posting their website.

    I wasn't rolling my eyes at you or the thread. I think it should be fine to link to other sites.
