The so far most impressive result is with 3DMark06 where the processor was pushed up to close 6GHz and despite vaguely overclocked graphics cards managed to score 34,255 points. Only 1,000 points from the world record set with Intel's Core i7 965 Extreme Edition processor. This was later improved to 35,273 points, just 300 points short of a record. They also did some SuperPi benchmarking, which has always been Intel's home field, but AMD is closer than even with Deneb, 10.733 seconds;
