I started to play around with 3DMark99 after a really long time, I noticed the benchmark gives me different score every time??
I don't remember from more than twenty years ago was this normal behavior for the benchmark?

My system is P3 800MHz/TNT2 Ultra/256mb/Win98SE

If the differences are small, it is within the margin of error which is normal.

I assume those scores were collected at the same time (same room temperature etc)? If not, time for a do over. Also, drop the first result you get, from when your components are still cold in the beginning. Are you still seeing as much variance then?
