I have the 670 ftw card if that helps you any. I posted my results earlier.
Vue imprimable
I just ran the benchmark, here's my results:
Intel i7 -3820 CPU @ 3.60 GHZ
32 GB ram
64 bit Win8
2x EVGA GTX 660 TI running in SLi
High Res: 7761
Didn't bother to do low.
I don't think dual monitors should affect score that much, you can always disable one to find out. If you're using Aero glass in windows 7 this will hurt score. Also my 3930k has 6 cores and memory is running at 2400 Mhz speed XMP Profile 1, which will boost my score a bit in CPU intense areas of the benchmark on high res.
Screenshot was from a long time ago when I was initially testing my PC. 1250 Mhz would crashing on me after playing games for a few hours. I did go back to 1225. What I didn't do is increase memory speed of GPU in that screen shot. This will increase your score as well. Basically you increase in increments till you see any artifacts, if you see artifacts you past your limit.
Check you low res score to see what your CPU and memory can do. If it's above 8k you should be able to overclock GPU to break 8k in high res.
Below are my stable settings I play games with. Notice the score is even higher with memory overclocked. Click on image for full screen.

Nice pointers Pseudo.
I am working at the moment so can't properly test the memory clock but I just bumped it up a touch to see how it would affect my scores.. It did push it a little higher but not drastically. I will throw up a screenshot for the high res.. I will do a low res bench in a few mins and throw it up on here as well.

Woops, forgot to edit out my 2nd monitor in my screenie. Just disregard that.
For the LQ bench, also shows my GPU-Z & CPU-Z info better:

That Aero glass will hurt performance in windowed mode. This was a common issue when I was collecting scores before.
That looks like a big monitor on the left :).
Ah duely noted.. I only just got all this kit about 1-2 months ago so still getting everything sorted. There were a couple of nice programs I had on my previous system.. "Vista Services", basically disabled all inactive / unneeded services (including switching to a performance based theme) and a "Game Booster" which basically picked up anything that Vista Services didn't. I found my game ran much cleaner on the crappy setup I used to have with both of them running.
I might re-bench everything after I set those back up.
Haha yeah it isn't small... 27" iMac :P 2560x1440
Present for you early. :D
Oo, I forgot about that. Thanks! Civ5 was slow cuz of that. hehe
