Sorry if this question has been asked a million times before, but I can't seem to find an answer that matches my spec. Is this a good score for the following on 3DMark 2001:

Athlon 1.2 ghz
Asus a7v-e 133 (200fsb)
Creative GF3 Ti500 (AA off)
SB Live Platinum
512mb Crucial Cas-2 SDRAM
IBM Deskstar 75gxp (7200 RPM)

To get it higher, what would you recommend? Is it worth changing my mobo to a 266, and if so, would I need to get a new CPU and memory?

Yup, your FSB is the bottleneck. So is your memory. If you want to upgrade, then I suggest upgrading to a DDR motherboard and DDR RAM.

Thanks for the reply :) 

Would you say that this is a fair score for my current set-up? If I replaced the Mobo and RAM but not the CPU (being a bit short of cash) would I see an increase?

You have good systeme

You have good DDR/GPU/Sound card.

Your CPU is allready old if not overclock put you FSB at 133 so your memory will run in spec 133*2.You cpu might overheat so get artique silver is cheap and a better heat sink and if not a 2 case fan.After that you will be avaible to hit near 8000 if not higher.
