I dumped my 8000gts and got a single 4870.
Very nice card.
Went from the 900's in 3dmark 06 to about 1400 .

Do you mean you went from 9,000 to 14,000?

I haven't run 3DMark06 since I first put my rig together in May of 2007. But, I have 3 different scores saved on their website and the lowest is 8,727 with everything running at stock speeds (the highest is 10,419).

I checked your speca nd you were using faster memeory than I was. I was using plain old Kingston value RAm .
Still mine is bigger than yours.
