Since I bumped the Chipset up I ran Mark06 again and got 17,867.
I think that with nVidia's lates drivers they've not got the split Screen rendering dow yet.
It defaults to single GPU and when you select force split Frame or alternate Frame rendering it warns that it's not a good setting for performance.
Maybe in a few more Months things will be better especially when Vista SP-1 comes out.
I llok at where my Mark06 score is and the systems above mine get into Water cooling etc. I know that with stock cooling the 8800 Ultra gets VERY HOT! I shut down one thest when they got over 72c I could just see the GPU smoking and poping, LOL!
All I know is that my Rig plays games and runs my video editing software flawlessly so I'm to too concerned with Mark06 scores.
