Geforce3 (Suma) scores only 4900 in 3DMark2001

[hanc0]

I just got a Suma Geforce3 and am running it at 220/510 now. It's running fine, but only problem is that I seem to be getting lower performance than other people running Geforce3 cards. 3DMark2001 scores only 4900 or so (1024x768@32bit), and Quake3 is about 130fps at 1024x768@32. Currently running 12.90 driver on Windows 2000.

Spec:
AMD Athlon 1300
KT7-RAID
512MB PC133 RAM
HPT370 v1.0.3b1
Suma Geforce3
blah blah blah..

Anyone know how I can increase the performance of my graphics card? thanks

make sure you have the latest motherboard drivers. I only scored (with a Leadtek but similar setup) 3000 till I upgraded my motherboard drivers, then I got 5500.

You mean VIA 4in1? If so, yes, I got the latest version installed. And all of the other drivers are latest as well.
