Just wondering, does everyone buy 3dmark Vantage? Unlike 3dmark06 and earlier, it make you pay to run multiple times. I just don't like paying for a benchmark, when there are others, including 3dmark06, that's free and still good. Rather spend money on games instead... 
But I might consider buying it if everyone else does.

Performance Setting 1920x1200
My system:
Q9450 Quad 2.66 GHz
4 Gigs of OCZ DDR3 PC3-10666 / 1333MHz / Gold Edition
nForce 790i Motherboard
9800 GTX x2 (SLI)
SyncMaster 2693HM
CoolerMaster Real Power Pro 1000W PowerSupply
CoolerMaster Stacker 830 Case
CoolerMaster RR-CCH-LB12-GP 120mm Sleeve CPU Cooler
Seagate 1 Terabyte 32MB Cache Hard Drive
LG GGW-H20L Blu-ray/HD DVD (Reader and Writer)
With the mods in my sig:
PhysX helped me too... the drape in the first test seems more quick/realistic in its motion... i dont consider it cheating or whatever because it "inflated the cpu score"
if I can get more realistic views and more points with a driver switch, without negatively impacting image quality... im all for it

P9351, specs in sig. Not bad for a single card solution if I say so myself. I keep the other 6 feature test turned off as they dont affect score.

hello guys
can anybody explain WTF is with this test/cpu? 
nothing is overclocked or somehow modified
I've got around 24,000 with 2 285s. Everything in my sig is updated except my video cards too lazy to change it since I'm also on my laptop more
