Looking at those 3dmark2001 SE scores, I must post that from my wife's system:

1700 @ 1.467ghz
1gb PC2700 Crucial ram
Radeon 9700 non-pro
ECS k7s5a mobo (SiS 735 chipset)
7200rpm 20gb 2mb cache Maxtor hdd

3dmark2001 SE score: 10,309

Does this seem low in comparison? Same stock score, but I have 1gb ram (not so sure that affects overall speed in this benchmark...) and a 9700 instead of a 9600. The only thing that counters this in Mango's, as far as I can tell, is 400mhz in CPU speed, 8mb cache vs 2mb and a faster mobo(?). That enough to account for it?
