Question for either of you? Is anyone actually utilizing the benefits of SLI or Crossfire? Like what size monitor are you guys using?

You are basing this off of 3DMark06... at 1280x1024. This doesnt prove shit. Install Crysis, Bio Shock, and Company of Heroes on vista, test the performance with DX10, because that is where all of this shit will matter.

Nice for the high of a res.. now if some of those other bad ass machines will test under the same circumstances...

Heh heh, your score with all the bells and whistles at high res is almost the same as mine with only the basics at 1024x1280... lol

I would test it at my native res, but then i would have to buy 3dmark06 and thats no good.

I can tell you that I bought this system to play crysis, I got this system based on what was the best parts in my price range. I run Crysis at 1680x1050 with ALL settings at VeryHigh and get 25-35 FPS, which in Crysis, is completely playable. I have tested Crysis with and with out SLI enable, with it enabled i get a performance increase of ~68%
