With all my tweaking and my clocks at 295/300 I had 10173 3dmarks...I bought a new Western Digital 80gb 8mb cache special edition hard disk and cloned my data from my Western Digital 60gb normal hard drive (2mb cache) to this newone and now I'm running off the new one, set the clocks to 295/300 ran 3dmarks and I'm at 10325. Also this drive is great lowered my boot time from 1min5sec to 36sec....nice....

Wow great score. I can only get about 9700 marks with mine. Maybe my card just sucks. I have my system overclocked as far as I can go and all of my parts are quality ones. My card is clocked to 300/300 sometimes I can get 305/305. Im gunna work on a better score tonight.

Wega!

I think thats a good score for your system. I'm getting 9600 with mine. Ive got more speed on the CPU, but less on the vidcard. If you gould get your CPU speed up, you should be able to break 10K. ;)
