thats my 3dmark from before when i was overclocking to 3500 or so. now at my stock 3ghz, its around 14000. that seem right? i dont feel like overclocking just to make sure something else isnt wrong here.

thanks

what video card you using?
2001 SE score is heavily based on cpu speed now, since a vast majority of recent cards will run it easily

Seeing how 3DMark01 is for the GF4/R8500 era, the benchmark would not be GPU limited at all. Seeing a pure CPU score is probably normal.
