Hello, why is my AMD overdrive score so low?

bloodndbone · 09 Jul 2011

Hey Guys, coming for a bit of advice and possibly some help.

I recently updated to windows 7 64b from windows vista 32b.

Now i have quite a decent system, and yet i am getting low bench marks on AMD overdrive, and was wondering, why?

I have attached 2 screen shots showing my system specs and scores.

If i should add anything else please let me know and i will do

Cheers

Edit 1: Put in windows score, my hard drive lets it down because i have no SSD as of yet
Edit 2: Just did a 3Dmark basic bench test (uploaded screenshot) and got a horrible result. I honestly have no idea what is wrong, i have all drivers up to date, and has to be, i just upgraded to windows 7.

With an overclocked Athlon 620 I get the same subscore. I don't know why this happens, but upgrading to their turbo or hexa core series Phenoms pushes this up.

Yeah exactly, i seen peoples scores with much older and less spec'd, and they pull at least 10000. This is really why i am concerned ;/

It's not that great of a benching tool. I have a AMD Phe 3.2GHz B555 x2 Black edition and got a score just under 10000. THen unlocked it to 4 cores and a clock speed of 4.5GHz (On water) and got like 10 point higher. It just made me laugh. Just use another program and you will see the diffrence.
