I would think quads would have a bigger advantage in superpi then in 3dmark06...

super pi is not multi core.
You only see the records set by qxXXXX because no one spends their time with LN2 on a dual.. Like my dual crushes all the quads here in super pi. and you can run much higher clocks,much easier

and 3dmark, you see huge jumps in scores with the quad. look at my score (only stock but still) vs a quad. no comparison

well then it looks like a race to see who can beat it first. but i dont think i will be, the stupid warranty sticker that came with my card got ripped off because some muppet placed it on the edge of my card. It got caught on my arm and torn off when installed my card and i never kept the box which apparantly also has a similar sticker on the bar code. i read through the little warranty pamflet that came with my card and it was never mentioned that i would need to keep the box for step up. So maybe i will be sticking with my 8800GTS
