well i put my new card in today run 3d mark 05 and scored 3692 that seems a bit low my system spec is athlon64 3000 1 gig ram and i set everthing to peformance in the settings 35 mark don't bother me to much as all the games i have like quake 4 hl2 run nice and smooth
 
That's very low - you should be getting 5k+ - I get that with an X800Pro (slower) @ stock with a 2Ghz Opteron

Have you installed your chipset drivers? Are you running it at 1024x768? What ATI drivers are you using? Did you upgrade from an nVidia card? If so, did you use Driver Cleaner to completely remove the nVidia drivers?
 
as bizarre as it may sound, check the AGP apperture size in your BIOS, if you have installed new mobo bios or drivers, may have reset it, mine did that when i bought 6800, make sure its 128mb or more :)
