Concerns about Benchmark's Graphics

[Wobi]

A. Uh, no...this is not a troll post.
B. I have adjusted my settings as well as the benchmark settings in multiple ways.
C. I rather suspect if I looked at your computer running the benchmark, I would see the same problems.

Sounds like a bit of a monitor issue perhaps, I ran it again and no solid black shadows. Granted this issue could be compounded if you are riding around in a dark outfit on a dark greenish-gray dragon in direct sunlight, but from the sounds of it you need a bit more contrast. But I'd have to see it to know for sure.
