I just installed a x1800xt card with 512mb. And I run 3d mark 05 and the score I'm geting is 7116 at stock speeds. Is this not a bit low for a x1800xt?

I have a p4 HT 3.2 1mb cache. 1gig ram. and the x1800xt.

Anyone know whats up? Could it be the processor that is letting the card down? I know pentuim is not so good with ATI but the score seems very poor.
 
Well I tried testing 3d mark 05 again and made sure AA+AF were off and closed all apps. I also installed omega drivers and the score I got was 718X. I tried overclocking the card and changed the speeds from stock (600/700) to 640/800... And the 3d mark 05 score 7197. A increase of 10 points... So if overclocking the video card doesn't give better performance I guess this means it's 100% the CPU's fault?
