Try taking the dual screen off for the moment, you will get better scores as the gpu will not be rendering images for the second screen and will be able to focus mainly on your primary monitor

So I dowloaded and nstalled the demo vrsion ran it and got much lower than I was expecting.
662 3D Marks SM2.0 of 258 HDR/SM3.0 of 206 CPU Score of 1431 This seems like a fairly miserable performance to me; is the problem the GPU being the bottle neck or is something else wrong? Today (actrually before this) I ordered a new GPU (XFX 7600GT). An estimates as to how much that will improve things? My current system is in my sig and is running stock (no OC).
