Looks like you need more cpu power to get a good score from these two beasts. SoF is getting better score with 2x hd 4870...but their cpu is working at higher clocks

Well here is a screen with all three 4870s and some high NB. Not scaling the way I had hoped.
@ Ben Brown
add a lil more HT link speed, 2200 or so and run it again.
I tried six different times to try and run it with 2200, adjusting voltages on just about everything but it would always crash (3DMark06 not the pc)at the same exact spot everytime (right after the second cpu test). Not sure what is causing it other than the higher HT. Any suggestions?
can you guys write out your systems specs

What do you have your voltage set at for that high of ht?
Kinda freak result here while testing the M3A79-T

Ben i found myself wth the phenom9850 that to get a stable HT 2200-2400 nb volts around 1.32 & HT 1.30 (not nb-vid)
Well I actually got my HT higher last night. I got it all the way up to 2750 and for the most part either made no difference in score or made it worse overall. I thought that was weird.

wohoo.. 5th in the orb when u search for 3dmark06 results with phenom processors
what??
how come i canīt boot at 4ghz then???
i saw some screenshots of ur cpu at 4ghz and also some with the nb around 3ghz. i canīt do that with mine... did u boot with those clocks or did u just pull them up with aod and then took a screenshot?
hopefully asus is working hard on a new bios with functional acc and let me use high dividers. i hate crippling my ram to frequency way below 1066mhz.
