So in a shamelessly vain comparing of our digital hot-rods for epeen supremacy I put forth that we put our computers through the grueling trials of 3DMark Vantage and 3D Mark 11 (if your computer supports it) to find out who has the greatest PC on the Escapist. (for simplicities sake only these two)

http://www.futuremark.com/

I am calling forth all Workstation, Gamestations, General PCs, Commodors, Atari, MacBooks, NoteBooks, NetBooks, GameBooks, Amigas, Desktop Replacement Laptops, and Apple II computers in a battle of the bulges.

Who has the best?!

Ok this is how it works. You do not have to list off your computer hardware if you do not want to, you just need to run the free, general benchmarks and then post the final score. Additional it would be cool if you could list what kind of computer you have and what you primarily use it for.

OK here I go.
My computer is an Ultra-End Workstation predominantly used for 3D modeling and Animation, 2D art, and Gaming with a significant amount of ram to avoid using a scratch disk when running simulations.
My scores are P42965 for 3DMark Vantage and P14057 for 3DMark 11

P.S. I do not think that this needs to be in the gaming section given that gaming is not the exclusive use of computers.

Well, I only have my school laptop which is pretty piss weak.
Go on! Give it a try! Future Mark Vantage should at the very least be able to go through the benchmarks without crashing. If not, download a previous version from ages gone by (3D Mark06/7), list which version and post the results. :)

My desktop is three years old but ain't showing her age! =P

2.5GHz intel-Quad
Rad4850
4GB RAM

Yet I'm still playing current gen games at maxed out settings... or close onto it.
The silly thing being that its series of PC's wasn't built for gaming.

Well, my personal computer, which is my netbook, has the standard 1.6ghz core, 160gb HDD, GMA 950 graphics and the like. The only thing I've done is give it an extra gig of RAM.
On the other hand, the family computer is a 3ghz quad-core, 3gb Nvidia Ti 550 graphics, 8gb RAM and a 1tb HDD. It runs most modern games on max setting about 30-35fps. Struggles a bit on Metro 2033.
