You won't have any higher score with a 5770 than you have now....two 9600gt's in SLI is pretty strong. More than enough to play any game. Only difference is DX11, which isn't an issue right now.

Clock your CPU to 4.0ghz, my I5 did it with 1.425 Vcore, and overclock our GPU's and you will hit 21k probably, atleast well over 20k. Are you still running a stock cooler?

Yup stock cooler. I've been getting money to do a cooling upgrade, but I'm still not sure if I should get RAM first or that. Probably cooling since it's running sort of hot atm.

What kind of temps are you seeing? Are you using real temp? Are you still on stock voltage at 3.6ghz?

Temps are ranging from 40-60, but that's because it's really hot outside and I have left it on all day. Yea I used stock voltage for the 3.6 3dmark06 test, but I don't really know much about voltages for CPU's and stuff I put it down to 2.8 anyway.

Are you using Real temp though? If not, what software are you using to see temps? 60c cpu temp might mean 90c core temp. Real temp is the best software to use.

It would be better/faster to leave your CPU at stock and use turbo mode than a straight 2.8ghz overclock.

Speedfan, I dunno if it is truly realiable, but it does the job at least.

Yea I used turboboost originally to get it to 3.2, then I went into the BIOS from there to take it to 3.6. Then I went back into turboboost (well the software with my mobo at least) to take it back to 2.8 which took the RAM with it and such.
 
Updated. I also changed the layout, let me know what you think and if I missed something.

:D I gained about 1200 3d marks with my 3850. new score is just over 7700 my old one was, which was about 6500.

Sorry, but that was run at 1280x800, not 1280x1024.

I like it! Mostly because I'm 1st place AMD/ATI and 2nd place Intel/ATI :eek: :good::good:

I'm the only one thats broken 20k with an AMD cpu, interesting!
