Rendering is done on the GPU (video card). The CPU isn't used much at all. So for purposes of testing render speed via the benchmark scene the CPU shouldn't matter.

sorry guys but my missing hardware will be purchased on 25th and delivered somewhere near 29th that's when you'll receive a benchmark from me.

Hi there

My new computer is almost finished and I was wondering on getting 2 of this also. Do you think 850 watts of power supply is enough for 2 or do I need to use 1000w and up. Thanks in advance

It depends also on the rest of the PC, processor, HDs and so on do suck it fair bit, I'd go for the 1000, I had a 750W and when I bought the 470 it couldn't with both at the same time, so I upgraded to a 1000W one. But it also depends much on quality of the PSU, in my case they might say it was a 750W but it was most likely not giving that much juice.
