IMO it's too much in both cases - a 4.8 GHz 2600k + single 7970 scores more than a stock 2600k + CF 7970s in cloud gate, and while the graphics score scales perfectly with CF, in Fire Strike the overall score scaling is about 68% in Fire Strike and 80% in Fire Strike Extreme.
I think the cloud gate result is a bit silly but I understand it, though I think Fire Strike should be even more heavily GPU weighted as it's the only test that's actually demanding on the GPU.
