I see other people with 3x my score and similar machines (with the exception of the mobo).

I think it has to do with the AGP, because I get similar results when I set it to 1x AGP compared to 4x with fastwrites.

Anyone else have a similar problem and was able to get much better results, and if so, how? (Or should I just buy a 760 board>)

I saw another guy with this problem, said he fixed it with the newest ALi AGP driver. I don't keep track of revision numbers, but if you've already done that, I would check BIOS to find out if everything is set right. Also, use the 1004 BIOS revision.
