It's a bit low, but still within normal limits for 9800gtx. Did you update driver?

i think that your score is low. i scored 11194 with my phenom 9500 @ 2.5ghz and hd 3870 @ 800 mhz. as far as i know, the q6600 should be kicking my phenom ass, same thing with the nvidia.

Hmm, I'm only getting 3702 with my E6300 OC'd to 2.8GHz and my 1800GTO.

That score is about right. As of May 2nd I got a score of 12060

 

Pretty much the only thing that 3dmark will tell you is how good your graphics card and processor are. I wouldn't dwell on it too much.

Your a little low. Back the driver up a notch. The one your using is tweaked for 3Dmark Vantage, maybe its loosing some in 3Dmark06.

This is the patch for 3dMark06:

 

http://www.futuremark.com/download/3dmark06patch110/

 

Also a Hotfix:

I tend to keep old installers so i don't have to keep re-downloading the same thing and just use these to double check my installers up to date :).

Also, ATI cards tend to give good marks , doesnt mean the same going from one card amker to another, you cant compare. You need same and same, youre a little low but not that bad, like was said,driver most likely

Yeah thats really low man.... I wouldn't really worry though... everyone gets different 3dmark06 scores with the same hardware... for example I have a single 8800 GTS 640... and a core 2 duo e6420 ... And I get 12100 in 3dmark... so it doesn't really matter
