like it matters.. an 8800ultra scores 13k+ with that system probably:
this was its specs:
e6750 @ 3.4ghz
Corsair XMS2 2gb Kit
evga 680i
OCZ GameXStream...
etc etc
the rest doesn't matter.. because its just like Krazyq's system... except for the RAM and board... which wouldn't affect the score too much...
and since they are around the same and Krazyq has an 8800ultra... his scores around 14k.. and i've just proved that two 8600gt doesn't beat or even come close to beating an Ultra
Don't believe me?
also.. the 8800ultra performs about 2x faster (maybe more) than the 8600gt, and SLi doesn't double performance.. making it impossible to match or even beat an 8800ultra

There is the benchmarks again. Also, that is 8600GT in SLI and it is OC'ed. And if you think that beats an 8800 Ultra, or even an 8800GT, you probably don't even know how to OC.
The specs for that benchmark are either comparable or greater than mine (the processor certainly is) and I get 11,000 in 3dmark06 with my 8800GT. There you are wrong. Now go home.
Also, I upgraded from a 512MB 8600GTS which is an "amazing" card compared to an 8600GT piece of crap. And the 8800GT makes the 8600GTS look WORSE than a piece of crap. There is not ONE SINGLE REASON to purchase a card other than an 8800GT, for the next couple of weeks......until the 512MB 8800GTS comes out.
Just be glad I'm not a mod, if I was I would consider it a bannable offense for recommending an 8600GT SLI over an 8800GT. Some people honestly don't know, but they don't act like they know. That isn't the case with you Franklin.
