I just got my radeon 7500 (retail) yesterday and I installed it into my Dell 4100 desktop. I ran 3DMark2001 and got a score of 3367!.

I think thats a little low for a radeon 7500 right?

Why isnt it going any higher? Is it my system thats keeping it down?

My Dell 4100 has a pentium III 933mhz and 128mb sdram.

The card is not overclocked and if thats the only way to get it up to higher scores then what program should I use to overclock it with.

I also dont have cash on me to buy extra cooling for it...
:eh?:
