Do I detect some.....ribbing?

5690?

My beast of a system, with its unbranded RAM, 2000XP chip running at 1.6ghz, and my scaled down 9600 graphics card gets 753

The videos are amazing. Its a shame they don't offer the movies in high quality for download. What frame rate did yours render at mate?

[Nemesis]

Well I thought I'd try it too ..

System

Motherboard: A7N8X-X
CPU: AMD Athlon 3200
Memory: 1 Gig DDR Single Channel PC2700 (333Mhz)
Graphics Card: Asus V9999 (GeForce 6800 GT)
FSB: 400Mhz

VSYNC, AA & AF OFF

First pic is everything standard.
Second is 6800 overclocked to max settings via Asus SmartDoctor.

Not too shabby

I'm so ashamed, I got 2548 3DMarks back in August 2004 and I run an FX53 (although that's with a 9800 Pro)
I really need ATI to release their dual video card technology soon.
Apparently it can support up to 256 cards at once, but just 2 will do me:

Why the hell would you need up to 256 graphics cards? You would probably need a whole AC unit in the system to cool them down
