    Linkboost? EPP memory? If so, then I would agree that you need to push that cpu. I could push mine more also, so you should have plenty of performance left.

    My only difference is that I am running 4gigs of EPP ram at 800mhz 4-4-4-12. I am using the latest 97.92 drivers if that makes a difference.

    P23 Bios? All cores enabled? My board didn't recognize hardly anything, and I had to set almost all up manually. Maybe the same problem? something not set correctly?

    I dont understand it. Control panel on mine is at global driver settings, nothing altered at all. Other than that I am at a loss.

    Your score is fine. You are getting that score simply because your CPU isn't running with a big overclock. The guy that is scoreing 15.9k is only scoring higher because he is running his CPU at 3.5Ghz and the cards are clocked hihger too. Notice how you still trounced his CPU score even though your CPU is running 500Mhz slower? Now notice that he trounced your SM2 & SM3 scores? That is because a quad core offers no additional performance in the game benchmarks over a dual core and his being 500Mhz faster will yield better game test results.

    Aha...thanks Allstop. Really appritiate your help on lowering my concerne :)

    Ps i had a E6700 before running at 3200Mhz...still this cpu is much faster even in some games. I didn´t expect it to be such a killer.....but damn it requires cooling compared to that 6700

    Of course it will require a bit better cooling, there's twice as many cores producing heat than there is in a E6700 ;)

    Your score looks normal. Try overclocking the 8800's and that cpu. i only have one 8800gtx my scores are 12878 with the cpu @ 2.93 and 13170 with my cpu @ 3.2

    I run the cpu at 3.0 with a vcore of 1.3. I have the zalman reservoar 2, but the idle temp is about 47c. The cooling performance of this passive reservoar isn´t the greatest...

    Ps..Is vcore of 1.3v ok ?
