RTilbury is on a distinguished road

Is my X800XT PE cheating me?

Ok I ran Futuremark 2001se and 2005 and loaded my scores up into ORB. when I use compare for the 2005 scores I get three results and mine beat out the other three. This makes me happy.

My score was:

3DMark Score5509 3DMarksCPU Score3643 CPUMarks

Now when I load up the 2001se scores and compare to simillar systems I am blown out of the water!! I mean murdered. There are some with scores simillar to mine or less, but there are atleast 15 that totally blow me to bits.

my 2001se scores is : 20534

What's the deal?

I have the latest cats, bios, updates. I have good cooling also.

That all seems correct for your system... I don't get much more with a slightly better system (except ram)

Maybe there are other things they're doing, like overclocking?

System Specs

3Dmark01 is more CPU/RAM intensive than GPU intensive. so, your score is actually about right.

You're fine. CD's is right, if you had say an athlon 64 4000+ you'd see a huge increase, but the latest graphic cards don't affect 3dmark01 like cpus do. That's why your lead in 03 and 05 are so much.
