Should i score higher in 3Dmark06? please help!

It's hard to say, you have four cores, which 3Dmark recognizes, but you have a single core GPU. I scored 9438 with an Athlon X2 4600+ and a 3780x2:

Is my system like super duper??

I've been seeing a lot of scores and have noticed that my PC runs very well

With an E2180 @ 2.8 and an 8800GT i get a score of just under 11000 with Vista!!!!!
Is it just me or is that very good for my system

In the cpu test, the gpu makes no difference (or slight). It's all cpu rendered graphics so his score should not be affected by the gpu

and considering that 3dmark06 just loves four core processors, there's something wrong going on.

Definitely low. I run around 10k with a 2.8ghz C2D and an 8800 gts 320 (slight overclock on the gpu).

I'd agree with everyone, it's definitely low. I have a Core 2 Duo @3.4Ghz with a 3850 512mb OC'd and I score almost 11k. You should post your scores for each individual thing so we can see what the problem is.

Thats definitely low. I score 12.5k with a e4300 and 8800gts 320mb thats with it all overclocked. You should be score atleast 10,000 at stock speeds. Make sure you have all the right drivers for the 8800gts. Check for viruses that might be using all cpu power. What psu do you have? You could be running low on power.

Mine's at the default 1024 x 768. Try it at that resolution.

It must be your CPU @ 3.4 making all the difference. You have one GPU with the 3850 and I have two 3870 GPU's, plus I have the factory overclocked MSI (850/1300). I'll admit your Intel is much better at stock than mine because it does more per clock.

That Wolfie 3.0 at Newegg and a Crossfire board looks good to me now. With CrossfireX, I could get a 4850 when they arrive in June and have 3 GPU's clocked about the same. Nordic Hardware reports the 4850 will be clocked at 850 core, so the two CPU's should work well together, whereas the 4870 and 4870x2 would slow down to 850 when running alongside my 3870x2.

My 4600+ is stock at 2.4, and the 3870x2 barely beats the 8800gtx in some games and barely loses in other games. So, your 9041 is quite close to my score. If we had newer mainstream Intel CPU's then we'd get really great scores.

To post a picture, you have to save an image of your online score to your PC, then upload it to an online photo site. Then, you copy the IMG code to your post.

The way I do it is this:

I press print screen when I have the online results (but not the log in stuff on the side, move the bar over). Then, I start Image Forge and create a new file 2000 x 2000. I do a Ctrl-v to copy the print screen image into Image Forge. Then, I save it to the desktop as a JPG, not a BMP. I upload it to Photobucket and then post it using the IMG code here.

Photobucket is blocked at work by Websense, because some people use it for porn, but my wife uses the ad free paid version for her modding images. I just signed up for the free version, but I hate the ads and might pay for it too. Another site is Ringo.

Image Forge is a shareware and it's very good. So is Irfanview.

CPU score is normal. The video card score is not. What power supply are you running? What motherboard are you using? Are you sure the PSU is powerful enough? Do you have your motherboard chipset drivers installed correctly? And, are you sure your video card drivers are installed correctly?

When I had my 8600gt oc I scored an 6046. e6600 2.4 oc to 3.537 with the card oc'd as well. Now with the same oc on the processor with the 9600gt oc I score 11604. And I am not over working it to hard. http://service.futuremark.com/resu [...] lts.action

Heh my 6800GT isnt far off those scores @ just under 4000

Most likely it's a driver issue... hardware like that should be getting 11,000 as a minimum, my highest score was just shy of 16,000 using 2 x 8800GT's in SLi... and 13,000 in single mode using an O.C Q6600. As I said, 11k or more should be the number you're hitting. Check the drivers...

Also... 3GB Ram? Is all the Ram matched? Try using 2GB, with both modules in the same colour slots. That might be effecting things too. I've always found 1GB is better than 1.5GB & 2GB is better than 3GB when it comes to actual performance... Always keep RAM matched in the same colour slots. For instance you could have:
2 X identical 1GB Modules
2 X identical 512MB Modules.
Imagine your RAM slots are RED YELLOW RED YELLOW
Fit your Ram as 1GB modules in Red slots, 512MB modules in Yellow slots.
This way the problem for me when trying to get a decent Vista experience score, as my RAM wasnt fitted correctly and held back both the CPU and the RAM until I'd fitted it into the right channels

I get almost 10k with my system (in sig) and you have another gig of ram and 2 more cores than me. Check drivers and make sure your card is getting enough power. It looks like your PSU puts out enough amps, but Rosewill is known to be kinda iffy. Do you have another PSU you could put in to try out? Or a friend cool enough to let you borrow his for a few hours?

an extra gib of ram and overclocking only increase 105 point


WTF? i dont get it

Looks like an underpower of your GPU. What PSU do you have? What are its specs?

lets start from the begining i see the people really trying to help being ignored...

1) check that all PSU connectors(that need to be) are connected to your graphics card
2) update drivers to the latest version www.nvidia.com
3) i couldnt find any information on your power supply(thats bad news)
4) have you tried the card in another machine and run the same test see if it scores higher?

I try every things
no help
reinstall OS
updates to the lates drivers
i even reinstall the card itself
and i dont thinks is my PSU becase in unplug all the optional fans and storage harddrives only leaving the vital component power up but some how no changes can anybody please recomend me with some new beta driver for my motherboard
here is what I have

Ouch... The only real thing different is your CPU to mine...

I have a score of 12162
