Didn't you reuse anything?  Hardcore.


To benchmark in D3, just bring down the console (CTRL+ALT+TILDE or 
CTRL+ALT+[key left of 1]) and type "timedemo demo1"

However, you should run this once for a "warm-up," and then run it three 
times and take the average.  The timedemo is EXTREMELY inaccurate 
however.  I was getting 26fps guesses, and I maintain 40fps stably.

I also recommend reading TechSpot's tweak guide to get the max 
performance and detail out of that system you've got there (you might 
even be on Ultra already)
