Just throwing some benchmarks in here:
6950 Modded with unlocked shaders running at 1000/1400 1.3V with a Shaman cooler mounted - Max temp 57 degrees Celsius. Noise level cannot distinguish over my case fans.

BFBC2
I just played BFBC2's first level with everything maxed out and vsync off.
MIN: 18
AVG: 67.862
MAX: 127
Reference: http://www.guru3d.com/article/gigabyte-gtx-560-ti-soc-review/18
EDIT:
MIN:0
AVG:67.085
MAX:187
The min is probably cause I couldn't stop FRAPS before it started going into the menu or something.
Crysis - The original beast
6950 OCed

For this game I used the benchmark tool on 1920x1200 resolution everything set to Very High with 2xAA and 16xAF - Basically the same settings Alienbabeltech used in their benches.

I used FRAPS to record my FPS as I was playing through the games (except for Call of Priyapat and Crysis).
For about $310 that spent (260 for the 6950 2 GB and the Shaman cooler) I think I got a pretty good deal, my results indicate performance right in the ballpark with a GTX 580, sometimes exceeding it which I think it pretty awesome.
Any games you guys want me to test let me know, I will test them if I have them. If anyone wants the CSVs that FRAPS creates, send me a PM I will gladly send them over to you.
I will of course add more benchmarks as I have time - Thanks for looking.
NOTE: The sites listed as reference are the setting I was using in an attempt to create a fair comparison, if anything seems off please let me know.

Sorry it took too long lol, here is the results in Conquest mode.You could try BC2 32-player multiplayer maps as they are more demanding than the single player.
