that seems about right to me tbh but im guessing your cpu is holding you back a bit.

check in alcapones 3dmark06 thread to see how you compare with others.

the ati 2900/38x0 are quite good at 3dmark generally...in games i think the margin is a little greater.

What is your memory speed and timings?
What is your fsb at?
What is your HTT at?
Are you turning off as many processes as possible?
Vista or XP? Tweaked... or not?

If your running two sticks of memory run them at 1T. Turn virtual memory back on and set your pagefile on your 2nd drive. Try bumping your memory divider up one to OC it more. Right now I assume it's running at 878mhz. Your HTT must be at 958 not 1958, but you have some more room there.
