I got an unsatisfactory PcMark 04 Score: 2176
Also Far Cry runs @ < 20 FPS, which is a bit slow for my system (less processor-intensive games like Doom 3 run fine):

- MB: ASUS K8V-X, VIA K8T800, Socket 754
- CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ @ 2200 MHz
- RAM: 2x 512 MB Kingston PC3200 ValueRam, CL 2.5
- VC: PNY Verto Geforce 6800 GT
- HD: 2x Samsung Spinpoint 80GB 8MB Cache in SATA RAID 0

I got all the latest Drivers installed (VIA 4in1 455, FW 66.81, etc.). Temperatures are good.
Can you please tell me what could be wrong with my system?

maybe that the cool'n quiet feature of your CPU isnt working properly...you'll either have to install the correct drivers for it or simply disable it.

Other than that, well, I hate Asus as their quality isnt really constant...

well, it must be a bug in the drivers too, because in fact, it worked...I heard that CnQ doesnt work too well with game thou
