Hi my specs are

athlon 64 3000+
1gb pc3200
AIW x800 xt (500/500)
abit kv8 pro

I'm only getting 4200 in 3d mark 05 whereas others are getting 5000+.
What is wrong? I've noticed that the frame rates in CPU tests are 1 FPS
 
CPU tests is supposed to give bad fps but with my 2.3GHZ 3000+ i get around 3fps in test 1 and 5fps in test 2 i think, i uninstalled it so i cant check for sure.

You should be scoring closer to 6000 with that card. Try uninstalling the catalyst drivers, rebooting and using drivercleaner pro

Then reboot and install the 6.3s(i think thats the latest, 6.4s will be coming this month)
 
Considering that some 7800gtx systems score in the 7000s, your 4200 is quite normal, and unless you plan on swapping out all of your parts for uber godly versions plus overclocking them with watercooling solutions, don't plan on getting near the gtx.

Hello my score is 5884 and the cpu tests are much faster after running the drivercleaner and reinstall catalyst 6.3

thank you so much!
