Have to wait until the release of the chip for more results.

Kinc, the '06 cpu score it's not a little bit "low"?
It's for the low FSB?:confused:

Because it is with ATI cards. With NV that would have been close to 8700.

ok marcus since you can't publish result, you can still hint us :D
how many digits for 01?

It's kinda strange you think there should be no differnce since it is a cpu-test. The extra perf for NV came with 158.22 if I remeber correctly. The driver wich removed alot of cpu overhead for NV.

Reckon it'd be a nice gesture to remove the scores from the orb for the time being as some people are still benching the "old stuff" hard. ;) (No, I don't mean myself)

Nice find Marcus! Interesting... choice of card affects CPU score. Not just a CPU score after all. :)

Just ignore it if you are running 65nm. The reason for these 3dmark scores to be published at this point at all is just to fill in some gaps on what this cpu can do in 3DMark. I myself were running QX6850 just last night on Striker Extreme for some Ultra SLI in 01 and 03. Will continue today. I had completly forgot what a pain in the ass 680i can be :)
