Hey, I just got a Sapphire 7950 (newer L3 version) and ran 3DMark11 and my scores are:
P6366
Graphics: 6481
Physics: 6203
Combined: 5822

It seems like from reviews I should be getting 7100+

My computer:
i7-860
Asus P7P55D
8GB G.Skill DDR3
Samsung 830 256GB
Sapphire 7950

Do my scores seem low?
 
Yes your graphics score is low indeed.

I guess at stock a 7950 should score in the 7-8K range on graphics and when OC-ed it'll score around 10K on graphics.

Do you have the latest drivers? What clocks are you running?

That's what I was thinking :\

Yes, I tried Cat 13.2 Beta7 and 13.1. Currently 940/1275. i7-860 is oc'd to 3.1Ghz.
 
I OC'd the 860 just a tad more to 3.4Ghz and got:
P7190
Graphics: 7214
Physics: 7338
Combined: 6818

I guess these are normal then huh?

Makes me want to upgrade...I should probably wait for Haswell i5-4670 in Q2-Q3...
 
My Graphics score on default clocks (925/1250) is 7929 in the Perf mode of 3DM11, but I get ~10400 once I OC my 7950 (Sapphire Dual X) to 1175/1680 @1.3V.

OC your 7950, most cards will go 1100 - 1150 on the core and ~1500 on the memory.

Good Luck!

Nice what cpu are you running?
 
Hey buddy, just got a 7950 myself. Also have a some what similar CPU. I got the i7 950. Here is my scores

3DMark ScoreP8873
Graphics Score10336
Physics Score6384
Combined Score6013

This is with it running at GPU1,175 and memery at 1,675. Guess my CPU is holding me back. Do plan to OC it after I get a better cooler on it.
