On a local LAN Party site, I decided to start an Aquamark3 thread. Nothing for my E-Penis, I just wanted to see other peoples scores. Well, my score was 36,782 (CPU: 5,911 / GFX: 5,340) (Note: My GFX card was slightly OCed to 398/324 from its default 324/296 with RadLinker) and I was pretty happy with it. Obviously nothing compared to the 86 thousand something scored by the guy with 7800GTX and A64 3800+, but still good for me.

Well, that was about three weeks ago, and out of boredom I decided to run Aquamark again. To my surprise, my total score had dropped a total of about 6,000. The CPU scored about the same, but my GFX card had scored *wayyy* lower. I don't have the exact scores right now because I didn't get a screenshot.

The settings for everything are pretty much exactly the same as they were for when I ran Aquamark before, same drivers, number of running apps, hell, even the fan speeds were the same. Does anyone have any idea of what happened?
