This is a bit off topic but I noticed one of you guys using a Prometeia, you havent by any chance upgraded it to the Lian Li version and have your old biege front for sale? I melted mine... dont ask.
BTW I get 15900 from a XP2800 with a Rad 9700 but that is cooled with a TEC and water block, so your rig could go a lot higher with overclocking than they have it, dunno about that CPU cooler though...

Surely the sofware has to support Hyper Threading Si?

Ask them to test your rig with 3DMark 2003 Blow Dog, its more relevant to todays PC's.

It comes installed with 3DMark 2003 - so I can only assume that it was tested on 2003.

Remember, 2003 is far more GPU dependant, I believe he is on a 9700 pro yes?
