Bechmarking time.

Nvidia includes the opengl gears demo with their drivers.  xscreensaver 
has this with the -fps option.  This is from my old nvidia geoforce2 card 
in my laptop:

dattaway at satellite dattaway $ glxgears 
3565 frames in 5.0 seconds = 713.000 FPS
3833 frames in 5.0 seconds = 766.600 FPS
3850 frames in 5.0 seconds = 770.000 FPS
3817 frames in 5.0 seconds = 763.400 FPS
3820 frames in 5.0 seconds = 764.000 FPS

You should have much more than several hundred frames per second with your 
faster computer...
