I turned off a few apps ( i should have done this first) and i upped my score a little.



Im now gonna get some approved drivers and give it another try and see what it says.

11825 - I am very pleased with that considering most people just beneath me had better hardware - Vadim must have done a very good job with the O/C.

I would believe that the services running on the background and CPU usage at the time will influence but you can see that you are in the 9100 to 9300 interval which is quite good.

I will have to start overclocking mine when out of the box and get some better scoring as well. I don't believe it will be as good as yours as the CPU is inferior but as the rest is not too bad I hope to have some interesting scores Very Happy

I done a clean install of vista then ran it again. Got it up another couple of notches. Now i have a benchmark for any future computers i get.
