motherboard: gigabyte ga-m57sli-s4
dram: ddr2 800 mushkin 4 gig
video card: 8800gt pny 256 bit 256 mb
psu: 485 watt noisetaker 2

3d benchmark score: 7800

the only thing i could think of is I live in an old apartment and my circuit breaker is an antique
 
It is because of your AMD 2400 cpu. I have the same mobo and vid card pretty much and have an oc'd 5000+ BE and I get over 11k.
 
Actual thats very nice score for a single core!

I ran a le-1100 in my sig system and couldn't get past 6000.
 
i can just scrape over 13000 with the phenom 9850 and 8800gt 512mb. What's your seperate scores?

Total score.....
SM2.0 score.....
HDR/SM3.0 score....
CPU score....
 
It is all about the CPU in 3dmark06 at default resolution, unless your card is really old. That score doesn't really matter, it is how it handles games. Your setup looks quite balanced.
