i'll post some pictures  and get some benchmark scores as soon as ive run them.

also got extra fans for the graphics cards

was thinking of doing something faster for summer but not really impressed by the skultrail.

so we'll see if theres anything that catches my fancy

oh and i'll have this system connected to a sony full 1080p tv KDL-46X3500

cheers and appreciate any feedback

I see someone has some mighty deep pockets.    Should be impressive for sure.  Can't wait for the pics! 

Wow your new rig make me excite just thinking about it lol cant want to see benchmarks, would if you get over 30k.  

just running 3dmark06 so i'll post the results in a bit.

is the 3dmark score all i should be looking at?

and whats a good score anyway?

A high score is good :) You'll score ridiculously high... maybe 16,000+? Once you run it, it will show you a bunch of graphs (through the internet) comparing your scores with other computers, other computers with similar components, etc.

Soo... you have any extra dough!? ;)

Enjoy that rig.. its monster.

well that depends if u have vista or xp there is about 5k+ differents between the two i believe

 but even with vista it got to be 20k+

 Pictures!!! it sounds really nice

My goodness, that really is one of the most powerful systems money can buy.  I look forward to pics and benchmarks.  That thing will last you a loooong time.

right im getting a 2dmark06 score of 18304 which i think is pretty low.

does anyone know what im doing wrong?

i get pretty much the same score when i use one of my graphics card as well as when i have them in quad sli mode.so im guessing the sdmar06 isnt picking that up?

yea i been looking around and it seems that 3dmark06 is have a problem with 9800gx2 in sli.

phew

thats a releif

at least i know my systems ok .

was just getting worried about the score was expecting over the 20 000 at least

yea

their was a test with

2 x 9800GX2 Quad-SLi + Intel Skulltrail - Only 20973 in 3DMark06

while somewith 2x 8800 GT 512MB SC and QX9650

got 25000+

while the qx9650 was oc to 5ghz with dry ice the gpu were with stockcooling.

Trying doing a Crysis benchmark.  Crysis/Bin32/Benchmark_GPU.bat.  Tell us your fps for the first couple runs, and of course the resolution and settings (all High, all Very High, etc).  I'm curious as to how much you get.

Is there a COD4 benchmark?

 i dont believe theres one but i know the crysis one became free.

 That is one expensive gaming rig. I wish I had that kind of money laying around.

Anyways, if you want to benchmark your system with a game that doesn't have it's own benchmarking, use FRAPS. It is a great program and lets you know your frame rates in real time throughout a gaming session. I heard that Crysis is more demanding on your PC in the later levels, which is something the Crysis benchmark might not account for.
