    Strange :( I suggest you OC though because you should easily hit Ultra frequencies and then maybe that could fix those "poor" scores ;) Remember that these Gfx cards are being held back by CPUs - which are often not fast enough to really let them shine. Try an OC on your pentium if you haven't already.

    The GT should get around 8k-9k in 3dmk03,the ultra should get 11k-13k depending on cpu of course...your score looks ok to me with that cpu.

    Some of the benchmarks I've seen were carried out with Athlons FX-51s can get 10k or thereabouts so I'd say your CPU is just not up to it - Dell :(

    Also L5,make sure AA and AF are not on by default in the cards properties,like the pic below....i set mine to off and then set certain games to differant AA and AF levels.
