Reformat and install drivers and 3dmark and then see what happens. Oh and BTw is it 3dmark 2k1 or 2k3?

back off on those clocks, when it gets too hot itll kick in on thermal regulation and itll kick the clocks below stock, that still doesnt warrent a score so damn low!

my temps ar around the uper 60's. highest i have ever seen was around 72. it doenst kill performance in any games i have...

too hot. Clock it down, see if that helps. 72 degrees celsius is really fucking hot.

That's about the same temp as everyone else here. Make sure you have the appropriate chipset drivers installed

Sometimes Windows can do that. If your games run fine without slowing down like that, I wouldn't complain. Just remember that any benchmarking programs are synthetic, although other factors such as processor/GPU/chipset heat, unloaded DLLs, cache and swap file filling up can kill performance... if you are really concerned, check out the tweak guide at the top of this forum to optimise your RAM, swapfile, card etc.
