Why does my computer do poorly compared to others?
ok, if you look at my sig you can see my stats. i have run 3DMark03 several times now, once with my older graphics drivers and 2 or 3 with the new ones. there difference is minimal 2-3%. for some reason though when i compare to a computer of the EXACT SAME stats my computer performs approx. 50% overall 84% of the other CPU. i have optimized my computer, i alwasy make sure only programs i want are running in the back, such as asus probe, ZA, anitvirus. i cannt figure out why my computer does so poorly.

What scores are you getting? and what sites or other places are you comparing too?

Do spyware/virus scans and kill those programs that you want running - those can take up precious resources.

Do the games you play run fine? That's all I would worry about. Benchmarks don't play games. My PC doesn't do too well in benchmarks but it still plays games fine.

3DMark03:
*note: for some reason my 6800 GT is registered as a 6800 Ultra. perhaps that is causing the problem? i have everything set top defaults, as is everyone else. my score - 11258 comparison of my rig versus the best rating. http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=4315023 lower rating. http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=4370748 |

maybe because the 19000 point you linked is to 6800Ultra SLi scores? lol. My 6800GT scored around 12k when I had it too. Your scores are normal.
