Help Low 3dMark

[Lolcb]

Well basically after I installed watercooling blocks etc to my setup, I notice a huge drop on my 3dmark.

My specs:
X6800 C2d
8800GTX SLi
2GB Cellshock
680i ECS motherboard

So I used to get 13.5k score for 3dmark, now im only getting 5k in 3dmark?? Anyone have any idea?

I tried using driver 158.22 and 97.92 and 3dmark wont detect SLi.

Are your PCIe running at 1x rather than 16x?

You can use CPU-Z to check right?

Or is there any other program to check?

BIOS settings?

CPU-Z might tell you in one of the pannels

Not fitted a block properly and somethings overheating/throttling?

Sorry double post

How did i manage to post the same thing a hour apart?!

Assuming my pci-e slot is running 1x or 8x

How do I go about changing it to 16x?

you can set pcie in the bios set 105 or 100,are you using exactly same setting's as before prior to water coooling? correct ram voltage's? timing?linked or unlinked? etc maybe check with rivatuner and see how high temp's are going?
