    Hello,
    I have been running windows 7 since beta, and I have been always interested in gaming performance of my system, recently I did a clean reinstall to retail windows 7 and thats what I see..

    Overall: 2900 points
    SM 2.0 result - 1300 points
    SM 3.0 result - 1200 points
    CPU result - 900 points

    And this is my result from May:

    What surprised me, CPU result is over 2 times lower, but its still the same CPU!! I'm running the newest DOX drivers, all chipset, sound, network etc drivers are up to date. On normal nvidia drivers I got 2700 points.
