Check your Nvidia settings, not sure how it's done but i know you can force the GPU to run 3DVantage physics and give a false score, as 25% of the final score for Vantage is the CPU :)

For reference a 5.1Ghz 4 core SB should be getting around 27k.

Your score with those clocks should be 17k (17400 is my guess) at a guess, still not bad :)

i got 15193 on the gpu and 25621 on the cpu. 16,914 overall, but my gpu's are slightly lower clocked. i'll have a proper run tomorrow, might have to up the cpu a bit more to bring my score back up to scratch :D. its weird how it does the physics with the gpu when its on auto in the control panel. thanks for lettting us know or i would never have known!
