dolce 0 Posted November 6, 1999 weeeeeeeeeeee..... Now all you hard core games with all those kick butt video cards, can test your strength out with the new edition of 3Dwinbench2000, Win2k Compatible... You can download it at ftp://ftp.zdnet.com/pub/zdbop/3dwinbench/3d00.exe The only downfault is that it's 90 dam megs.. New for 2000! 3D WinBench 2000 uses the new DirectX 7.0 interface, which means you get to see the benefits and the performance of hardware transformation and lighting up close and personal. Other highlights of the new version include a brand-new processor test suite and new quality tests for the latest innovations in 3D rendering. 3D WinBench 2000 measures the performance of a PC's 3D subsystem, which includes the Direct3D software, the monitor, the graphics adapter, the graphics driver, and the bus used to carry information from the graphics adapter to and from the processor subsystem. You can use 3D WinBench 2000 to test hardware graphics adapters, drivers, and the value of such enhancing technologies as MMX. What you can't test is Windows NT 4.0, because it doesn't support hardware acceleration of the Windows Direct3D interface that 3D WinBench 2000 uses; 3D WinBench 2000 runs only on Microsoft Windows 98, Windows 98SE (Second Edition), and Windows 2000 (RC2 or later). 3D WinBench 2000 aims to measure both the current and future state of hardware 3D accelerator performance. *I have an Abit BP6 2'celeron 366's SL36C week 35 overclocked to 606mhz at 1.90volts..
