which is better for benchmarking a gaming system?

i've noticed in 3dmark03 that increasing my overclock gets more points where as in aquamark3 it decreases my points. i dont know if this is normal. and what are acceptable scores for a FX5900U? i got a 6,606 3dmark03 and a 42,921 aquamark3. and i have noticed when i increase my overclock a lot like 520/1000 i dont get artifacts, but in 3dmark03 i get skips like it misses frames, but scores higher. where as in aquamark3 i dont skip, but scores lower.
