2900 looks like big tickets to my 1880, thats what you get with a 2 year old system....

WOW My score went up huge with the Beta 66.70 drivers from the 61.77's. My new score is 4,691! that's about 800 Points improvement! I'll post my new score on the ORB if you are a little skeptical of the huge jump in numbers.

Sorry to double post, but here is my 2 scores compared between the 61.77's and the beta 66.70's:

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=9678

Note, both the 61.77's and the 66.70's are not WHQL and Futuremark Certified drivers. So if that is something that concerns you then you might want to look at other drivers that are.

Those pics are from the Demo...most people just run the benchmark and forget about viewing the Demo...the Demo actually gives you the complete story about the 1st demo test (Return to Proxycon)...it also has sound and gives you more video to view...After running the benchmark over and over to get your highest score possible, take a look at the Demo (you also get to listen to the theme song from 3DMark 05 at the end of the demo titled "Lift Me Higher")

Flash if you didn't see my previous post, I was getting about the same score as you with the 61.77's. Now I'm running the 66.70's and my score improved by about 900 Points. I suggest updating your drivers and you should see much improvement.
