3D mark 11 is cool and and a great program but for me it needs just a bit too much to run properly and get decent scores/running if you get me drift

but for an accurate test we all need to be singing off the same hymn sheet.

I can get awesome scores with 3DMark 05

Sorry mate, pure coincidence. Kevin's a bloke I know in my local who is an unbelivable pain in the derriere, just sprang to mind when reading the thread.

if you want a real comparison then we will ALL have tobe running CLOD on FRESH installs of win7 with NOTHING else but the game installed and using the same tool.

S!

Systems Windows 7 Experience Index rate of 6.7 base with SSD-- 5.9 base with HDD


With this score I'm able to fly CLod very well. I was able to fly CLod at base 5.9 HDD. Not as good as 6.7 base SDD but still very playable.

I use MS Windows 7 64 bit as a OS on my PC. CLod is MS Windows based.

We all are using MS Windows XP, Vista 64 bit or Windows 7 64 bit to play this sim.

Does MS know what there doing? I would think so!

If by posting my results of Windows 7 Experience Index helps the CLoD team make This sim more playable on more PC's.Then thats a good thing.

Windows Experience Index is already on Vista and 7 and being used by PC games and Hardware developers to help people know wither or not thy can use there product on there PC. If there hardware or software is MS windows base.

There was a poster on another flight sim forum ask what FPS he would get with his system in CLoD. I told him if he had Windows 7 Experience Index to run that. then post his Base score and I could tell him what to expect form CLoD on this system. That EZ.

It doesn't, so it won't, so it isn't.

They know what they are doing. So do we. Producing simplistic 'benchmarks' that tell the user little, but help MS make a profit. If they can persuade people that they need better hardware, they can be 90% sure that this will result in another sale of their OS - most people don't upgrade isolated components, but by a new PC - with Windows installed.
