3DMark strange scores

At this link my scored and the first and second place computers are compared. We all have the same hardware except for minor details. Can you tell me what the difference is?

.8GHz On the CPU. Makes a amssive difference of Physics score

Have you tried other runs two with all programs shut? Could just be a slight issue. Can happen alot when benchmarking. Once when I did a benchmark maybe 2 minutes after the previous my score dropped by 500

Can you type that again in coherent english?

 

I think the benchmark doesn't always recognize CPU/GPU clock speed accurately - however, this won't affect the score.

Almost the entire difference is made up with the physics score. Your CPU is -300MHz off both the others (expand the processor tab). 4.5GHz max vs. 4.8GHz on both the others.

 

Unclear what speed their RAM is running at, that coupled with a somewhat unstable GPU OC on your end may be what is causing the disparity in FPS. Try dropping the core clock to ~1,400MHz in Afterburner and running it again. Do not have ANY other programs running besides 3D Mark and Afterburner.
