3dmark 2001

I am new to testing with 3dmark2001 and I was just wondering if my score is decent for my configuration (my specs are in my sig)
My score was 4439 Any ideas what I could do to make it better other than buying a new graphics card,as that is coming in the next couple of months anyway.

Well a new gfx card and ram thats more than pc 2100 would be good

depending on the fsb of the cpu, he might not benefit from faster ram...

a new video card would be a good idea though

your score is ok, it's just hampered by your video card

Overclocking your graphics card also will help. Use Riva Tuner.

Isn't Riva tuner for Nvidea cards.I have an ATI Radeon 7500. I know there is a program just for ATI cards just can't remember what it is called.

As for the slow ram,my board is 266 mhz fsb,that is why i got that ram and also the fact that I paid 80 bucks canadian for it. I didn't expect to be overclocking this CPU so I wasn't too concerned., I may get rid of this stick and get a stick of 333mhz .We'll see.
