Normal 3DMark11 score?

[Stochastic]

I just finished putting together a new Ivy Bridge system. Using a 3570K at stock settings, 8GB RAM, and a Radeon 7850 (also stock) I scored 5499 on 3DMark11 using the "Performance" preset. Is this a normal score and is there any way I can compare mine with others who have a similar configuration?

I just want to make sure everything is operating properly before overclocking!

Yeah, I saw the search feature but it's not very helpful. Most 3570K owners are using Lucid to artificially bump their scores. I'd rather see what a representative score is than the top few.

Your score is normal, approx, this is how much a 7850 scores. Try to compare with 6970 or 570, both are same league at stock

Thanks. I OCd the 7850 and that bumped my score quite a bit. Now I'll work on the 3570K.
