Weird memory problem

[Malaga93]

OK first the specs of my old PC,

Asus P4V8X-X
Celeron 2.4Ghz
Kingston 1gb(400)+256mb(400)
Asus Radeon 9200se
PSU 300W

When running a 3DMark 2001 test with the 1gb memory + the 256mb i got 924 Marks, i sold my 1gb ram to a friend, and now with the 256mb of ram i got 4370 Marks.

So why this huge difference in marks?

Is it a defected ram?

Thanks in advance.

Do change any other thing? Normally graphic part to a major role in 3DMark and if you change the card it could change the score, a lot...
