I guess some people can hit 9000 if they got a high end CPU (FX-55/FX-57) and overclock thier GTX even higher (e.g. 500/1350) etc

Trust me, it doesn't take a very high end CPU to top 9k. I have a KO and I top 9k with a Venice 3200+. The video card on the other hand was at about 530/1400

EDIT2: I do hear X2s with the newer Forceware drivers give about a couple hundred more points.

EDIT3: That's also with my system RAM in single channel mode, not sure if it makes a difference, my roomie has my other stick.
