N/A for 3DMARK ... didn't do it.
3DMARK01SE Build 330
3DMARK03 Build 320 with 330 patch
So, i think that is very strong for that new 8890. WOW.. I'm impressed with those numbers. You can see that my sys with those SATA drives kicks some but ... but the 8890 is very impressive I think even with those HDD numbers. And, the memory is just b/c I'm running @ PC3500... And, then it whops me on all the CPU ...

Just wondered how it would play out on mine ... thanks. -ot
