Alright, so I built a PC a while ago, recently I started looking into other people PC performance and started thinking that my one could be underperforming.

Here are the Specs.

Here is the reason why I think something is wrong.

I'm getting a score of 1553, below some GTX 780s.

What gives...

I feel my score should be higher up, I don't know, though I'll ask the experts.

Stock CPU
GTX 780ti SC so its factory overclocked, but there are people with the same clock speeds getting better scores, so I'm puzzled.

I haven't touched anything otherwise.

I don't know where you are seeing that.
There are a bunch of 780ti that beat your score, but they are all overclocked quite a bit. Of course they beat your stock (or near stock) card. the 780s are all lower than yours, or substantially Oced. Unless I am misreading something it looks fine.
 
Those cards on the list are pretty much all VERY overclocked. A well overclocked 780 will beat a stock 780ti. "Factory overclocked" means nothing. It is a marketing scheme. Your card has maybe 10-30mhz more than the cheapest available 780ti. This is not even enough to make any difference at all.

those people also have heavily overclocked CPUs.
