Now that leaves the question if the 2900XT 3d score can really change that much in a new platform. Probably not but I'm not sure either.

Let's all wait and see in about ten days.

One more thing, if this personal account by the Inq is untrue - let's never post anything from them againhere shall we?
I know what he's saying and I agree with Guatam, but I also know that when it is released that the same version of the calculator will be able to calculate it's scores as well. Yes the SM2 and SM3 scores will go up, but I seriously doubt that they are going to go up that much with a 3Ghz Barcelona. I'm really think that the person who made the "claim" or what have you made a typo and is referring to a 05 score not an 06 tbh.
