All of the pixels, All of the FSAA, All of the anisotropic filtering... All of it.

Just a huge throwback to what really got 3DMARK it's original popularity, sure 3dmark99 was the initial baby, but in the grand golden age of message boards and forum debates and comparisons, 3DMark2000 is where it really started.

Personally the first time i ever saw it and honestly at the time, it was incredible to witness visually way back when, was actually at a Staples that has a few desktops running it on continuous loop, For the era it was ground breaking graphically beautiful.

By default the program doesn't support resolutions above 2048x1536, however with some work done by some people back in 2017, a few tricks were viable to extend the resolution all the way up to 8K, and with a little profile magic, manually force apply 8xEQ Super Sampling, 16x AF as well. The green liquid ball scene is where the FSAA shines and well, 16x AF is fantastic everywhere.

Now if only i can get 3DMark2001SE to run properly.
