Looks good, nice config. That new Intel-i9 is very powerful. What will you be using this machine for mainly?

How do you like your AMD RX-6600-XT? 

Mine is just a general purpose do all box.  Office apps for when I work from home, also used for Digital Audio processing with Amateur Radio digital modes and then some light occasional gaming.  Its way overkill for what I really need, but I wont need to worry about it for a few years.

The RX6600 XT works really well with the games I have played so far, Forza Horizon 5 and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.  On my list to try is Red Dead Redemption 2 and Cyberpunk 2077.  The 6600 XT is good bang for the buck.

I chose to keep my ancient Dell with Vaacuum Tubes and invest in a good GPU for doing work.  The system will also game just fine but its not the primary focus for my daily driver.  Its running windows 11 in unsupported mode just fine.

I probably could have squeezed a little more out of it, I have a bunch of browser windows open, a movie playing and some other stuff open but I don't really think that it made much of a difference, maybe got a bit better score on the GPU. As an aside, I wouldn't run these tests often. They put a lot of writes on the SSD's....

Interesting. Is that at 1080p or 1440p ? Graphic-Effects set around High ?

If you think to, please post back here after trying RDR2 and CyberPunk.

I am considering a XPS-8950, but with an AMD card this time. If I don't like it, I drop-in my trusty GTX-1070 .

I really thought there would have been more people doing this and more posts. I am actually very curious about how the 12XXX series CPU's and the higher end video cards score. To clarify my other post: When I said that I wouldn't run these often because of the writes it puts on to the SSD....What I meant was that I wouldn't be running these tests 20 times a day trying to get a few more points.(I do know people that have done that....) There is nothing wrong with doing tests like this or a CrystalDiskInfo test just to see how things stack up. Kudos to dstewart51 for starting this because it is interesting and good bit of fun to compare systems.

Give it some time. It's only been a day-or-so. Plus, it's really only for new XPS-8950 owners. I see yours benched nicely as well. 

So, do these compare to each other in any-way, or only to a matching-card on other systems (that used the website)?

His GPU: AMD RX-6600-XT - 99.8%

Your GPU, Nvidia RTX-3060Ti : 117%

That is a good question, I am not really sure how these number are compared.. I never really payed much attention to tests like these because it doesn't change the fact that this is what my system is- for better or worse. I am not gonna go spend hundreds to try to gain a few points. I am thinking about pulling my I5 Inspiron 3650 out and seeing what it does and posting it on this thread. I kinda think everyone who wants to should post their results, even if it is not a 8950. I was surprised that mine did as well as it did compared to dstewart51, I figured he was gonna come out way on top with double the amount of RAM. As far as everything else besides the RAM, I doubt I would be able to tell the difference in the real world.

And as far as the GPU numbers, my 3060ti score was low, the results said it was in the bottom 5%. Maybe because I had a movie playing or because I am using the studio driver.

How old is your system? From what I read about that CPU online, your PC must have been VERY impressive when it was new. I think the numbers from your scores show that it is still a good machine. Anyways, I'm just curious and I hope you don't think that I am poking fun or being disrespectful.
