don?t think my computer is running up to its potential. I just built it yesterday. I have an
MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum
AMD Athlon64 3500+
EVGA nVidia 6800GT
1GB Corsair Dual Channel PC3200 DDR400
400W power supply

I just have the stock fans running. My CPU temps have been at 44c and the gfx card has been running around 61c. I installed all the latest drivers for everything. I ran 3dmark05 and the best I got was 3900. And for 3dmark2003 I got 10900. Nothin is overclocked. Here is my benchmark link:

Benchmark results
What is interesting though is that my cpu marks are pretty good, but my 3dmarks is not that good.
When I compare to other peoples of the exact same specs, they just blow me away. I have no clue why its not working up to par. thanks

ok 10900 on 03 is good.......

reason other people get higher is 1) overclocked (FM cant detect clock speeds correctly) 2) they will have quality slider on high performance.

those scores are pretty good,

yes i would say 05 looks fairly low....but the 03 score is bang on, jus check u not got 8xAF enabled before u run the bench....i had 8xAF on and i got 3600 something an i was like wtf? turned it off an i was up there round 4600 odd
