Ne personal high!
GeForce4 TI4200 w/8x
Core:290MHz
Mem: 620MHz DDR 3DMark Score= 13436

it wasn't hard to accomplish. just oc the processor, memory get it stable. then oc the video card and get it stable. ifaik, dx9 isn't that different from dx8.1 unless you have the latest and greatest video card such as the radeon 9700 that take full advantage of dx9. and it should get me 16000. my wish may come true... someday

i lived in houston a few years ago. off 1960/I-45. what part of town are you in?

wait, now i'm confused. you guys are telling me that you can't run 3dmark01 SE with dx9? i've been running dx9 since it's official release and i haven't encountered any problem yet. try applying the patch to 3dmark01.
