With Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650 (C1 stepping) @ 5.719GHz (439.9x13), ASUS P5E64 WS Pro motherboard, 2x ASUS EAH3870X2 TOP overclocked to 990MHz/1125MHz core/memory and Windows Vista OS they were able to reach 32,601 3DMark. The cooling used for the CPU was liquid nitrogen (LN2) while both graphics cards were air cooled.

Only beat the previous record by ~90 pts... still impressive none the less, gotta give credit to the other OCers who beat it more often than we read about it.

WTH does that score prove on a box that needs to be filled with LN every 5 seconds ? It's not like that's a functional PC, so that's just for bragging rights... Nothing to see here.

Farking hell... I can't remember how many times I've had to say this on here...

It's called PROOF OF CONCEPT. While not entirely practical by itself, if does serve a useful purpose.

If it can be done through means that are this outragous now, then we'll all probably have it eventually.

Very nice score, it was interesting that according to the article the key to the record was jacking the memory clock up on the graphics cards, which was only possible due to ASUS's use of 0.8ns RAM.

I have to give credit to ASUS for spotting a weak point and improving it. Very nice world record.

Yeah the weaker ram on the x2 has been one of the main compleints of it vs dual 3870's though i find it funny that the cards were on air, makes it seem like no matter how much gpu power they add on, the cpu's are miles behind. lol
