    Eeee! You need to do some work on your system, because I've gotten between 7800 and 8100 on 3dmark with nothing overclocked since I got my 8500 and my system is slower than yours. This is the defualt benchmark with everything set high and aa and aniso off(I think I still get over 7000 with aniso.)

    Yeah Pointless, that score is pretty low for that powerful a rig. I get around 6K flat with my 1ghz p3. You should be getting a lot more than a 700 point advantage over my rig.
