    Hey guys. Just trying to figure out if the system I have is about right or a little low. Score of P3202 http://3dmark.com/3dm11/787467
    Now I realize my CPU isn't great, I don't really game much anymore. That score was run at stock clocks on everything. Futuremarks search function is now less than to be desired and I can't find any comparable systems and I can't be the only bloke running a crap cpu with a 5870 eyefinity 2GB edition card.

    I'm running Win7 64bit HP.
    Newest Catalyst driver 11.2 (not FM supported)

    My 3DMark06 score is a$$ too. 15472 http://3dmark.com/3dm06/15502617
    Granted I got better scores with 2 8800GTs and a Dual core AMD 6400

    I'm just thinking it should be slightly better and I only ran teh benches to check overall system stability but might run some newer FPS games so I want to make sure I'm around where I should be or do I have a driver issue or something going on?

    I did OC cpu to 3.6 GHz and scores went up a tad, nothing to write home about but '06 score went up 500 or so. Something just seems like its not 100% so any ideas?

    Well in case anyone wants to know, I ordered a better cpu a Phenom II 975 and scores improved to 20,620 in 3dmark06. http://3dmark.com/3dm06/15515417 haven't run 11 yet. Did OC cpu to 3.8 and video card 900/1300
