3DMark Scores

I decided to run 3D Mark today since I haven't in awhile and below are my results. Are these pretty normal for a system with i5-3570k. HD7950, 8 GB RAM? They just seems a little low to me. Thanks for your input.

Firestrike is the newest version of 3D Mark i dont have a version number or anything for you if thats what you are looking for.

Ran my system two more times and ran my wifes twice.

Mine came out:
1st/2nd

52855/55857
Ice Storm

Cloud Gate

5422/5570

Then my wifes computer is running a Pentium G860 and a HD 7770 and her scores came out

Looking at my last Firestrike run i got the following:

Computer:
i5-3570K @ 4.2Ghz
GTX670 @ Stock
16GB RAM

Firestrike: 6209

Graphics Score
7068

Physics Score
7913

Combined Score
2779

You should post the sub scores as well as the main score. It's easier to see if something is pulling you down.
 
my i5-3570k is @ 4.4 GHz and HD 7950 at 1150Mhz/1400Mhz (stock 950/1250) I should be wasting your scores. well maybe not wasting them but I should be on par or higher. I have to be bottlenecking somewhere.

3DMark Score 5570.0
Graphics Score 6952.0
Physics Score 4582.0
Combined Score 2571.0
 
Your Physics score is what's pulling you down.

*Is your RAM running in Dual Channel?
*Is it running at its rated frequency?
*If your CPU overheating and dropping during the benchmark?

Maybe the CPU is throttling which is causing your Physics score to be about half of mine.

Just get the Physics score up and you will be all set 🙂
 
Dropped OC to 4.2 from 4.4 and big improvement.

3DMark Score 6830.0
Graphics Score 8058.0
Physics Score 6942.0
Combined Score 3153.0
