Heres the situation, my dad has a 2.4ghz northwood in some old motherboard and just got a gig of Corsier XMS 2-2-2-5 ram.

I benched that using Sisandra and it got like 4505. Now i go and bench my gig of OCZ EL ram and i get a 3191.

So then i swap ram so he has the OCZ and i have the Corsier and he scores a 4496 and i score a 3149. Why would my mother board be bottlenecking so much? I have the ASUS A7N8X-E deluxe, is this some kind of bios bug, maybe needing a new bios? What do you think?
*EDIT* I just saw another thing on the bench(i swapped the OCZ back in mine) i looked at the maximum memory bus bandwith and i scored a 6720MB/s and he scored a 6400MB/s, just something to add if it means anything.
