    Every 3DMark score I see from you is higher than the one you posted before. Seems like you're slowly getting the score you're aiming for, haha. =P

    Congrats, Mike! Helluva score.

    I'd go toe to toe with you, but my machine won't take any kind of FSB adjustment. I can't even get to 3.4Ghz before I BSOD. I'm excited to see how high you can get it though. Good luck!

    Maybe little more overclocking would do the trick! :D


    Anyways, nice score!

    he flashed his AW BIOS with the OCZ BIOS which allows overclocking ;)

    oh and he got an X9100 CPU off ebay.

    Nice scores, you beat the HD 4670 CrossFire setup in my desktop. I'm angry. :)

    Even though 3DMark06 is bashed for not being realistic, etc, it's still fun to try to ge as high of scores as possible.
