Hey there guys...

I wonder if you can maybe help me with this

My friend had n Intel E4500 at stock clocks, MSI P6N sli motherboard with two MSI 9600gt OC editions

He claims that he scored 14000 on 06 with that pc,nothing was overclocked, everything was running at stock speeps

BTW, he has 8gb OCZ memory and a 700w Thermaltake psu and he had the latest nvidia drivers...

PLease can someone help me so that I can hit him in the face with n hammer if he's wrong

I get that with one 8800gts 512mb, i'd say his system is on par with that score.

My CPU and Card is OC a little though.

Even though he is running SLI, I would say he is fibbing a little and probably had the processor overclocked just a tad. Or maybe it really hit around 13.7 or so, and he figured that was close enough to round up and call it 14. The processor would be straining to drive SLI'd cards at 2.2ghz to get that kind of score. The CPU test part of the benchmark would suffer pretty badly with that processor. I would say 14 is a little on the high side, for all to be running at stock speed but not unrealistic.
Phenom 920 @3ghz
BFG 8800GTS 512 OC
4 gig Crucial DDR2
15,200 3Dmark 06

PS...a pair of 9600GT OC's would be about equal to a single 8800GTS OC, with the 9600's having a very slight edge when you push aa/af towards the higher end of the scale.
