    8800 GTS 3DMark06 score too LOW???

    Although you would need quad core for 11k-12k score since cpu has such high rating. Whats your fps in graphics tests. If just installed maybe driver has not installed right.

    9800GTX vs 3870 Crossfire???

    I wouldn,t crossfire read this http://www.geekstogo.com/forum...80459.html&pid=1113480 I nearly did that. then people wonder why it doesnt scale well on their setup. If you want two cards much better to get 3870x2 or better 9800x2.I would just by 9600 or 8800 and wait for next generation
