Managed a score of just 130 then read the T&C where it says no netbook/notebooks/tablets or anything along them lines, it made me sad, time to dig out a p3 and underclock a bit.

Run the P3 at <800Mhz, probably ~200Mhz if that's possible, IDK - then run every possible application you can imagine at the same time. Hey, if you really don't care about the system in question, fill it up with malware and run it

I have never done any over clocking or bench marking of any kind. How do you do this and how know what your score is?

How do I test my system so I'll know what I'm doing without it being entered/submitted as my score?

How do I get this 3Dmark 03, is it free? Can I use the free version?
