That seems about right; a single GX2 scores about 7-7.5k. The real scores come once you OC those bad boyz -they should OC very well if they are kept cool. Though I will say that you will be cpu limited in almost every game, or at least thats what a C2D upgrade showed me.
Grats on the crazy new setup btw; I recommend FEAR and Prey for you to "feel" the Quad power


Edit- A dual core AMD, like the 4400, would easily add like 1k to your '06 bench. The more cores the better in that test, it makes a huge difference

the score u got with quad-sli gx2's is beaten by a single 8800 gtx(according to anandtech).
It scores 11000.

dude its called sarcasm.Don't take it so seriously.U got a lot of money than most people to spend on hardware.So don't show off.(although ur bragging rights are pretty much extinguished with the 8800 cards coming out,2 of those beats 2 7950 gx2's)
