3dMark score low?

[Vertigo]

Just installed my new GTX 670 and did a quick 3dMark11 run, more to test all was ok than anything else.

On the standard Performance preset, got a score of 8096, which seems a bit on the low side compared to others with this card.

CPU is an i5-2500K, at stock frequencies - is it this that's holding the overall score back a bit? Just wondering if there's anything to worry about or whether I may have some settings that need tweaking at all is all

What's your Graphics score? Just compare the Graphics score to a review online...or with our "3DMark11" thread.

Most of the 670s would be overclocked though, but should get you an idea.

Lowest score with a 670 and 2500k - P8299. 670. 2500K @ 0.0 --------- Kronos (Graphics score of 8508)

Your stock CPU clocks wont boost your score

It does, faster CPU better physics score. I get 7500 with a 2500k @ 4.5ghz and a overclocked 7870.

I guess I'll hi-jack this thread.

Just purchased a HD 7950. Running the latest drivers with an i5 760 @ 4.0GHz I got 6400, to me that seems low as my GTX 470 got 5400 at stock.

I didn't note the individual scores I'm afraid, I'll re-run it tonight and do so

Can't be bothered clocking the i5 to be honest, it's more than fast enough at stock speeds really and no application or game is struggling in the slightest, I was just curious if there was some reason why my overall 3dMark score seemed a bit low.

The card itself is an EVGA GTX 670 FTW version btw, which is clocked slightly higher than standard 670 speeds but not massively so.
