My 3dmark score is 9949, which compared to the database seems very very low for my system...does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this?? Please let me kno

What FSB are you running? I think your ram is pulling you back. Higher clock speed on your CPU doesn't mean a big jump on your score, your mem speed and timing makes up the high score.

I think everybody that has a little knowledge of this o/c stuff would agree with you! (I do - and I consider myself still as a noob in o/c´ing!)

Try other drivers and some bios/settings tweaks. But the real increase comes from hardwre.
