Seems kinda low...is it just because everything is stock right now?

Heh, I'm getting the same system you have. Same case, cpu, mobo, video card, and RAM. Except I'll be using a OCZ Powerstream 520 watt PSU.

could be the cpu score holding you back, but the sm 2 and 3 scores look a little low though

what driver version are you using

 

[~zQ~]

After OC to 2.25GHz (250*9)...

3DMark 5095
SM 2.0 2136
SM 3.0 2087
CPU 1704

Higher CPU score but graphics card scores are relatively unchanged...I am running the latest driver (84.21). Should this be right?

~Good luck Xephian...hopefully you don't have any hitches. Let me know how it goes.

6549 for me


You might wanna try a new driver.

I got a nice increase with the 84.30 drivers. Great Performer in games for me.

Check it out.

Also, when your doing 3dmark benchmarks, make sure to turn your driver control panel settings to high performance. Turn off all AA/AF and vertical sync options. You want to test for pure speed not image quality.
