3Dmark Score Too low ??

[Mark403]

I have:-

E4300
8800 GTS
Geil 6400 800mhz Ram
EVGA 680i Mobo

All at stock.

My scores are :-

SM2.0 : 2758
HDR/SM3.0 : 3001
CPU : 1193

Total: 5940


This seems way too low with the 8800 gts and e4300.

The CPU 1 & 2 tests were running at 0fps during testing, is this normal ?

is that an average overall score for my rig ?

Using 3Dmark 06.

Hmm half of what i would expect. Somit wrong there i think. Check that the pci-e slot is delivering full 16x from the slot. Check drivers also.

 

[Mark403]

how do i check if it is delivering full 16x ?

and the drivers ive got are the latest.

Could vista x64 be making a difference ?

Vista could be making the difference. Which drivers are you using ? ? ?

With my Nvidia 7900GTO and 32bit Vista I was only seeing around 75% of the XP graphics performance so I uninstalled it for now!
