Here are my system specs:

ABIT NF7-S Rev 2.0 Bios 18
Athlon XP 1700+ DL3TCJIUHB0310 @ 200*11.5 ~ 2.3 GHz
Thermalright SLK-800A w/ Delta 68.5 CFM
2x256 Corsair 256 PC3200 PT Rev 1.2 @ Dual Channel
ATI Radeon 9700 Pro @ 350*330
Western Digital 80GB 8MB Cache
Lite-On 52x32x52
Antec SLK-3700AMB 350W PSU w/ 120mm Delta 130 CFM + Antec default
Windows 2000 Professional SP4

Currently, Im getting 3D Mark 2001 SE @ 17432 and 3D Mark 2003 @ 5455.. That's pretty much average and not bad, but I want more :) .. I was doing the project compare with Futuremark's ORB website and I was surprised.. Lots of people had the same hardware spec as me, yet their scores were 1000-1500 higher.. That's quite a lot of marks for having the same specs.. I dont know how and what they did to achieve that, but Im hoping to get 20000+ myself too... Can anyone help?

I never bothered Downloading 2001, but in 2003 I score 5631, but havent done any OCing.

3.7 and 3.8 performance is identical more or less, simply with typical random score fluctuations. All i woudl advise you to do now is visit soem good tweak sites and start overclocking

I think the performance with 3.8's are almost identical to the 3.7's, probably just variation with the tests.
