3dmark isn't everything just to let you know. However a low score like your probably indicates a problem. But then again, you're running the games at the right frames soo...

Here's my suggestion:
Check your voltage levels for your cpu and ram. Fine tune it a bit and see how it runs.
Make sure your cpu and/or vid card isn't overheating.
Get the latest drivers from nvidia
Update your motherboard's bios.
Finally, it could be possible your PSU isn't giving enough power, if you have a spare PSU go swap it and see.

Other then that, it looks to me as if it's fine...

k cool thanks for the quick reply. temps are fine. mobo around 28, cpu idle 30 load 38-40, gpu idle 40 load 50-55. i have the latest drivers for i think everything, as for psu im pretty sure there is enough juice there. ill try the bios cause i havent done that since i got it lol. but with asus i've heard that its easy. but im not too worried about it cause the games are playing fine and thats all im really concerned about.

Actually, yeah. 10k would seem right for his system. I have a quad @ 3.15ghz and a 8800GTS 320mb overclocked to 680/1000 and I get 12817 on 3dmark 06 :)
