I have bought a system with Athlon 64 FX-55 and Leadtek's 6800 Ultra some month ago .
I noticed that , strangely , during the booting it mentioned the right model of CPU but gave 2400 Mhz for frequence and this seemed wrong because I believe the Athlon 64 FX-55 should be by 2600 Mhz .
But I dismissed that as only wrong display untill today when I downloaded PCMark04 to test my system .
To my surprise I got a low result of only 4523 and PCmark also correctly identified the CPU but put it at 2412 Mhz .
So now I am practically sure that that somehow my CPU is not running at the right frequence .
Can somebody advice me what to do and eventually what should be checked ?
When I am at it what kind of score should this system make on PCMark04 to be sure that it is about at its optimal performance ?
(beside the already mentioned CPU and GC I have also 1 GB DDR RAM and MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum MB)
Thanks .
