I got my Sapphire 9800 Pro yesterday and got 5304 on 3dmark03 and 13583 on 3dmark01SE. The 3dmark01 score seems a bit too low, but I read on newegg reviews that another guy got around 13k with 2500+ and 9800Pro (I've also got 2500+). Wondering why...

3DMark01 is *very* dependant on your system (CPU, FSB speeds, RAM timings). Try going online on Futuremark's website and comparing against systems with the same CPU speed and video card. If you have a 2500+ at stock, that's probably an OK score.
