I uploaded my results a couple of days ago - scored a 4700+ on the 3D video benchmark using an OC'd i5 (4.5Ghz), 16gb of Corsair Veng and a reference GTX 680 from EVGA... this score was consistant over several runs.
My system, while above average - is nothing really extraordinary when it comes to high end systems.
I've noticed the scores for the GTX 680 have dropped significantly today and when I checked by downloading the stats for those systems running that card I was appalled to notice some of the scores...
How badly can folks have their systems configured, drivers installed, etc to post such subpar scores? I find it troubling that a system with an i7 and a GTX 680 is reporting scores in the 2K range... how is this possible?... and more importantly, if you DID manage to blow your system up to the point that it was performing so poorly, why would you then upload those scores, knowing that something is fishy with them?
My system, if you check the baselines, is listed as the Alienware Aurora R3s (the s was so I could identify it later...)
