    nah, that's not all that matters...mandrakes scores should have proved that already.. :) (massive jumps with just cpu over clocking)

    and besides...it's always over all system performance scores. (or at least it should be)

    that's why it all probably needs to be split up..
    overall
    cpu
    gpu
    sli/xfire
    dual/quad core

    Im lost in this thread at the moment, dont know where to start. Why do you have 3 scores in the 3D mark 06 ranking mandrake? Who are the game champions? I actually cant find a lot of new benches after the update :/

    PS: i hate netbooks, especially pink ones :(
    i want my alienware....

    I have no idea. I think the spreadsheet I posted only had me at the top two. If you can submit multiple entries per machine I'd be more than happy to take over the top ten. ;)

    Again my thread is fully up to date with my benchmarks. I cannot speak for everyone else.

    That site looks a bit on the under developed side. Has anyone bought from there yet?

    On a side note have you run AquaMark 3 before? I can't even get that one to run.

    Let me know if you get it to work. I can see it loading in task manager and get up to 25MB of memory then crash. I tried multiple compatibility modes and uninstalling and reinstalling it. Next step is google but I wanted to see if you got it to work.

    you start from scratch then work your way back up...some times your original clocks wont take the first few times...some times it takes a different combo.

    You actually ran it! :D
    Thats is a good score! its an old benchmark, so not very efficient at utilising crossfire, but it loves processor clock (doesn't utilise quad core too effectively either, and just to put that in perspective, I ran the same benchmark Stock with Q9000+4870's and got the following:

    Clock makes all the difference, also shown below by my XPS M2010 (also stock)
