I am guessing it will be about 24k with the i7 that high. I believe Funky when you get your 5870 with the one you should hit 23k. If it was at higher res tho the 5870 would crush 2 4870s
 
Just got finished tweaking my backup rig with parts I had laying around except the CPU which I just scored for $64 shipped.
Specs-
ASRock N61p-s motherboard ($45 board when new! LOL)
Phenom II 705e triple core, stock voltage (1.175v) at 2.65ghz
2x1gb of ddr2-800 ram
MSI 9600gt GPU, overclocked a little
cheap crap 300w PSU (came with a case I bought LOL)
WD 250gb HDD sata
IDE dvd rom
Windows XP home

Total cost for everything- $200, and a large chunk of that is the GPU.

Motherboard is a major cork. It only supports 1000mhz hyper transport and consequently the North bridge is set at a low 1600mhz. Also the board only has 2 slots for ram. Plus, this board only has a PCIe x16 1.0 slot, not 2.0! Honestly I'm lucky the board even supports an AM3 processor at all LOL, I was shocked. I've been liking ASRock more and more.
And one other thing, not sure if it's the board or CPU but I cannot seem to raise voltage on the CPU whatsoever so I can get a higher overclock. It will not even POST if I increase it in the Bios and for some reason the overclocking tool in windows won't let me go above 1.175v anyway. Weird.

I know if I didn't have to remove the motherboard to take out the CPU and cooler off my main rig this 705e would be going in my AM3 rig to see what it could do.

Need to post a screenshot of showing the tests, resolution, and score or it doesn't count. :)

Or just download fraps which is a lot easier IMO It will save you some trouble in the long run.

FRAPS saves images in BMP if I remember correctly, which are fairly large files.

Yes the files are pretty large for me it is about 3.75MB a screenshot. I usually upload them to imageshack then delete them from my computer. I probably wouldn't even use it if I didn't need it to take screenshots for my games.
 
I believe FRAPS only takes screenshots of games, it wouldn't work for taking a screenshot of 3DMark IIRC.

Side note:

FRAPS will also record Youtube videos and other browser based videos as well, as long as you put the video in Fullscreen mode. :good:
