So what do you want then Kenny..?? Bench only with cpu's that were out at the same time as the graphics cards..??
But as you run on dice, if you had the top end cpu wouldn't you run cheap graphics cards..?? Easy points, the system and the rules are there to be used to their fullest extent.
Would you rather we ran just on air for P3's and below.? Or air on Geforce6 and below.?
The whole thing on here is if you have the mula you get the points, live with it dude, it grates me too, I'd love the freebies too. I'm desperate for a quad, my scores are screwed without it but I just bench whatever I can get me hands on and do all the benches.
But I am in agreement over the LOD and MipMap thing, I reckon the Futuremark benches should reset the graphics settings before the bench, like they do with the resolution that way it'll get rid of the cheats who run graphical benches without the graphics.
