The CPU tests will run between 1-4FPS on an overclocked quad core machine, but the graphics test should be much better then that.

Sometimes scientists make things alot harder than they need to. All they've gotta do is put a big spring on the ground where they think it's gonna land, or send a mission to the moon to erect a sign that says "Welcome to Earth".

I think thats about right, with my x2 5600+ at 3ghz, i got just over 10.1k.

Maybe you could overclock the card a little.

It sounds about right, since you have an AMD dual-core and everything is running at stock specs.

Managed to get this with my 3870's (blue pcb, single slot) on 1280x1024. Not to bad, the main thing that is holding me back is my MOBO (i975x) crossfire only works on 8x/8x and not 16x/16x. Used clocks of 885/1250, was not expecting to get that high as I heard that lots of 3870's won't go past 862 core.
