Damn my 7800 XT seems to be the lowest here.
Your GPU frequency is a little low, even for stock, i think, its hard to know but i think you should be running at about 2400 Mhz, you're running 2300 Mhz.
Mine is overclocked and running at about 2700 Mhz, i can run at 2900 Mhz and higher if i do silly stuff to it.....

Yeah... with the default button pressed in the performance tab... 2425 Mhz, as a i thought, you're a bit low on frequency.
I'm not running a huge overclock.

No wait, i was reading the wrong thing, its 2348.
Are you using DX12 or Vulkan? Vulkan give a little higher score... about 5%.

Let us know if you manage to solve this. My brother has the same problem.

1362 on my "2060" laptop. It's pretty! Pretty slow. But runs everything I need to to satisfactorily, so... I wish Aquamark still ran on modern stuff. Always used to make me feel happier watching that whizz along where is used to grind to a halt for the big explosion.
Ah, those were the days. And don't get me started on that benchmarker from the Matrox Millennium days, which used to draw windows full of stuff all over the screen at increasingly blistering pace as the years and improvements went by. It was all fields of big pixels round here once.

it seems to take an age to validate the score then an age after you click the compare on line button.

The scores are meaningless, I've had valid runs, my best scoring runs where large areas of the screen are red and other weirdness like random boxes or triangles and scored a valid 10k plus. One run was over 11k but didn't get validated

I don’t overclock mine, it’s refreshing to have some results run at stock settings. I know mine is below average because most people are overclocking and my result is normal.

Undervolted 6900XT still holding out. 
Interesting @humbug just noticed your cpu clock frequency is up and down. Mine is flat stable (I run a negative curve optimisation on it). Think it could be throttling on yours???
Wouldn't let me validate annoyingly.
Firegod, 6900 XT, Core 2400, Mem 2120, Score 4377

The CPU frequency, yeah... IDK i think its just not loading the CPU hardly and its just moving up and down between low power and boosted states, it doesn't seem to effect my GPU scores at all.

Just heard from my brother he's managed to get a result uploaded to 3D Mark, says he updated his drivers and reset his router.

I've had a few of these. Seems to be the website I think because I've been able to upload after.

Only a few more points for me 1% max
Dunno then, i noticed the Vulkan option this morning, it netted me 4609 vs 4472 of yesterdays score. Which was a DX12 run.

4070ti
12600kf
I just had a quick go with my 4070 Ti and managed to get 5339. Clicking validate nothing happens.
Doesn't make much sense really when a 4090 is no way near double the performance of a 4070 Ti. But there you go. Another fun benchmark. Now back to Baldurs Gate 3 for me
I got 6485 using DX12 as the Rendering API...
https://www.3dmark.com/sn/7844
As opposed to 6658 using Vulkan as the Rendering API...
https://www.3dmark.com/sn/12045
So roughly 2.66% increase using Vulkan.
