    Post individual game test scores (should be seven, car low/high, drag low/high, lobby low/high, nature) - that should narrow it down a bit :) Or preferably an ORB compare link so we can see what's really going on.

    I'd take it with a grain of salt, like you said yourself, it doesn't mean anything. I'm guessing something is going in the background eating resources, or you have coolnquiet enabled and it's not clocking up properly (or you somehow set an htt of 100 or a multi of whatever's lowest)

    the 6800U's are poo in 3dmark01 I have a pair of them myself I think I get around 33 to 34k but when I had my x850xtpe I was scoring more along the 38k mark clocked but on a single card but your score seems a little low?? should be hitting in the 18 to 20k's oh and 01 likes high fsb check what temps your card is running at it may be thermal throtteling

    As Kam said, post an ORB compare or the game test results.
    Sounds like you might not have drivers installed correctly, maybe chipset perhaps?
