Is 8912 a good score for a 7900GT?

I'm @ 532/1600Mhz atm and I ran the benchmark with High Quality settings on nVidia control panel.

(If that is a low score another thing is I *think* AA and AF were forced on in the control panel, will have to test this later)

Was just hoping someone could give me a insight on the scores I should be reaching :)

For some reason when I set the quality to low it doesn't change anything...
Back when I was on ATI you could visably see a huge difference, does this not happen on NVidia (NVidia n00b I guess)
You can see a preview of the difference on the new nVidia control panel ;)
Difference is big in IQ but the difference in performance is very low.

Can't find the preview. But manageed to get it set properly this time.
7775 points all stock. (see sig for specs)

Need some serious tweaks still though...

(or does that sound right for 450:660 on the 7900GT)
You can find the Preview if you do the following...

Open the nVidia CP > 3D Settings > To the left of the screen "Adjust image settings with a preview" :)

Putting my Core/Memory OC back on now @ 532/798, will see the difference in marks.

Hmmm still can't see it....
Could it be the drivers I am on? - I'm using 84.21

Also I'm using the secondary slot on my board (chipset heatisnk in the way at the top) so have the PCIe bandwidth at 8x.
On my X800XL I had no performance loss doing this, maybe it could be an issue now the rest of my pc is much faster.
Ah I'm using 91.28 not sure if the 2 have a difference on the control panel.

Just broke 9k after OC'ing 800 ish increase. :)
