CPU Scores in 3DMark Vantage raise from 2700 to 20,000 for GeForce 9800 GTX owners and up to 40,000 for GeForce GTX 280 owners. It seems like Kingpin reached the limit of 3DMark Vantage when his 3 GeForce GTX 280's with liquid nitrogen cooling only reached 60,000. http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?...
