I just joined nvidias "Club SLI" and my system is already ranked in the top 10
http://www.slizone.com/content/slizone/clubsli.html(currently tied for 8th, you will see it on the right hand side)
My 3Dmark06 scores are the higher then anything recorded by Club SLI (altho they havent posted them on the site yet). My score = 21985 see the link below
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=13892421My 3Dmark Vantage benchmarks = 31537
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dmv=2198724Heaven 2.0 benchmarks = 1373
(all settings MAX)
All of these results are without ANY overclocking. When I overclock the CPU (which i should be able to get REALLY crazy with since I water cooled it) it will give my 2x 480s room to breathe and get even better benchmarks.
