3DMark06 is the worldwide standard in advanced 3D game performance benchmarking. A fundamental tool for every company in the PC industry as well as PC users and gamers, 3DMark06 uses advanced real-time 3D game workloads to measure PC performance using a suite of DirectX 9 3D graphics tests, CPU tests, and 3D feature tests. 3DMark06 tests include all new HDR/SM3.0 graphics tests, SM2.0 graphics tests, AI and physics driven single and multiple cores or processor CPU tests and a collection of comprehensive feature tests to reliably measure next generation gaming performance today.

3DMark06 numbers are similar to what we saw with 3DMark05, the integrated Geforce 6100 videocard is weak for 3D intensive loads. When a stand alone videocard is installed, the system flies.

Real-time editing, bump mapping, static lights, network system, integrated physics system, shaders, shadows, and a dynamic music system are just some of the state of-the-art features that the CryENGINE offers. The game was set to Ultra quality and the Ubisoft's Regulator demo was run.

Biostar TForce 6100 AM2 (GF 6100 200/800 7800GTX)	191.48

FarCry results with the onboard GeForce 6100 are pretty good actually... it does allow gamers to play the game at low settings/resolutions. Performance with the GeForce 7800GTX is quite good, placing the Biostar TForce 6100 AM2 in between the two nForce 590 SLI motherboards used for comparison.

Extensive development has gone into the X³ engine, making full use of DirectX 9 technology, to create dramatic visual effects and stunningly realistic starships. Coupled with the massively enhanced A.L. (Artificial Life) system, X³: REUNION will present players with an ever changing, evolving universe; where a players actions really can shape the future of the universe.

Biostar TForce 6100 AM2 (GF 6100 200/800 7800GTX)	67.468

The onboard GeForce 6100 is out of its league with X3: Reunion's lowest resolution - 1024x768. When a GeForce 7800GTX is used, framerates are quite strong.
