    Ran 3dMark 03 on it first, then played Doom3, and I must say Im suprised to see that its still smooth (solid at 60FPS)at 1024x768 with 2x AA and 8x AF

    Errrrr ... after spending 'all that dosh' on a video card why are you playing at 1024x768 ?

    Btw what are you doing with anisotropic filtering on at 8x ? - I can never see a difference, well I can, if only just, but mostly only with craply written games (anisotropic filtering sorts out 'crumby'/not enough texture samples) - doom seems pretty good to me whatever level I choose or even if I turn it off.
