Do some Crysis benchies on High and Very High. That would be a nice test.

Man, I'm jealous. :)

If you have a camera handy, post up some "fit" shots of how it fits in the case, HD's, etc.. Also beyond benchies, maybe I should send you my "Kill-a-Watt" inline wattage checker, to see how much it pulls under load.

Ok then... 3dMark06 score, perhaps? See how it compares to the one in your sig.

I screenshotted the part of the first level that had the hardest hit on FPS to show how well it handles it. For reference, my 8800gt got roughly 14 on that particular scene. Obviously, this is worst case scenario, though it did get rougher later in the game.

For 3dMark score, check sig ;)

Unfortunately the gamma doesn't do it justice in a screenshot, but trust me, it actually looks incredible.

I'll vote for 2 passes of 3DM06 and average the two. :)
