No, my Benchmark score for my new PC built in May was around 2000.
This is with an Intel Core i7 2.67GHz. With Rep's help I did some overclocking yesterday up to 3.8GHz and it didn't change the score one bit so we think the GPU may be bottlenecking performance. To be honest, that was expected. When we built the PC was hoping to get an Nvidia GTX 260 but they were out of stock everywhere as they were out of production as the 400 series was imminent. My plan is to get a GTX460 in the next few weeks which should improve matters immensely.
At the moment I can run the beta but need to turn off some of the advanced graphic settings (Ambient Occlusion and Depth of Field) and lower the shadow detail.
Don't think I've ever said my PC wasn't all that great mind. Consider what I spent on it (cheap GPU aside ) I hope it's pretty damn swish.
