Ok I did score slightly higher with the 7950 gx2. The only test I ran was aquamark due to the fact I pulled a card out of a machine my girlfriend was using and she had to have something finished for work..lol (I'm going to pay for that later). My 7950 scores close to 150k at stock settings and the 1900 was only at 126k. That's actually quite a bit lower. Another thing is the 1900 runs considerably hotter than the 7950. So I'm sticking with the 7950, now where is that catalyst removal tool..

Next thing I need to figure out is why I am having a difficult time Oc'ing my chip. I have tried through BIOS,AI booster, and Nvidia Ntune tool (I have an Nvidia chipset). Every time I do my machine freezes. It doesn't crash like most do when you push the limit too far it just freezes. Any idea's?
I had no idea the GX2 was so massive.

Really?.. I'm thinking aquamark doesnt take advantage of 2 cores. Thats stock also.

Liquid cooled would be a waste on a c2d. Considering I run at 29-35c anyways.

Not quite. First I don't see them even offering  4 gigs of ram.
Also I have heard some really sketchy things about ibuypwer.com . I know they are also working under another name which had many complaints. (http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/Default.asp)

Check here for more info.

Just a little warning.
