    My system is a beast!

    My system pwns crysis yet stoopid GoM cannot even detect it and gives me a poor score as an estimate and gives me some lame excuse about my system being too new too old or too rare!

    Get it updated there is nothing special about what I have got apart from the fact that according to your PCMark website it is the no1 AMD64 system on the planet! (Which I find very hard to believe)

    Just annoys me to have such a lame GoM tag when I log on to my homepage .

    Problem is the HD3870. Until very recently we had only a handful of benchmark results with it, and we can't pull estimates out of thin air. When the choice is "make up data" and "wait for real data", we choose to wait. Last I hear we have it on the pipeline to be added to GoM, and estimation data should go up shortly - it should appear on GoM today or Monday. And if you want to help make the estimate even more accurate, run some 3DMark on it :)

    Same is true for all new cards - when it actually becomes available for purchase, and people can run 3DMark on it, expect it to show up on GoM within 2-3 weeks of that date (With the exception of laptop hardware - it can take longer - simply because people benchmark laptops lot less).

    Do you guys use all benchmark data or only "vaild" scores?

    Uh... Next Monday. With any luck we'll get the estimate for your combo on line today on Friday. We didn't have enough results with your CPU and GPU at the time of last update, but we do have 'em now. Sorry for the delay.

    As for the results we use, they're valid results with default settings. In the estimation procedure, results that are much higher or lower than they should be compared to results from similar systems are dropped.
