On 3d mark using basic version (free version) I get a score of P9104 3DMarks

3D mark says "Your Score is Low Compared to Similar Systems"

Thoughts on that ?
 
I suspect it's a SLI problem. Do you have the latest drivers installed?

I don't have any experience with Xfire/SLI but a google search brought up this question on the 3D Mark Q&A

Q: I can’t seem to get SLI working correctly. How do I enable SLI in 3DMark 11?

A: 3DMark 11 automatically takes advantage of multi-GPU configurations (SLI/Crossfire). Note that you need NVIDIA Forceware 266.58 or later drivers for official SLI support in 3DMark 11.

Is your CPU stock? That's probably causing the discrepency as most folk who benchmark are doing so with overclocks - thus inflating the results.
 
Ditto with the cpu overclock, with a 2500K in particular overclocking is almost standard. Get it running at around 4.5 Ghz and you shouldn't get that.
 
yap overclocking the cpu has made a "Your Score is Comparable to Similar Systems."

thanks lads for the advice

Im now getting a P9845 3DMarks score
