well obviously, but the score isnt going to be hugely effected. Even if you re-install windows, once you install your programs back on it will be pretty much the same as before you reformated.MatrixEVO said:In 3DMark03 and 05 I reformatted and got a better score then when I defragmented.

suprasteve said:umm, Matrix, that's really excessive, do those extra few points really mean that much to you?
very true, especiall since once you reinstall your prgorams games really wont run any faster.Rambo said:YES!
But on a more serious note, suprasteve is kinda right. To reformat, and get a couple more points isn't worth the time (IMHO anyway ).

And reformating just to get a higher score is pretty stupid.

your comps fine, most people wait years before re-installing windows. Do you really want to lose your game files and personal settings?MatrixEVO said:I need to reformat anyways, I like to every once in a while, just to make myself feel better about my comp's health.
