It'll have 914,256 polygons but only run 16bit with bilinear texture filtering, no DOT3, no more than two textures passes, and no texture compression. It will purely be another CPU/T&L torture test (and Geforce/Intel favored at that).
I'm going to beat the Madonion guys over the head with a blunt object if they mangle it again. 3D Mark 2000 is SO screwed up and completely backwards compared to how REAL game technology has evolved. A card gets docked for not having EMBM, but not for the lack of 32bit rendering, or lack of texture compression? *sigh*
Good thing is I think most people realize now how warped it is. No one in their right mind uses 3D Marks as a comparison when buying a card.
