    the 3DMark score will get about 1000-2000.

    as for games, it will depend on the game's threading... only a few games (like Unreal Tournament 3) are fully multi-threaded at the moment to fully utilize as many cores as you have. Games that are in development and about to get release should be better coded to utilize multi-cores as well.
