That's a normal score for a 7800gtx in 3dmark05, and that benchmark is mostly gpu-limited. Performance in a real game depends not only on the gpu, but the cpu also, and currently Intel processors perform worse than equivalent A64 cpu's - that's a fact.

THANK ALL OF U VERY MUCH FOR YOUR RESPONSES. i really appreciate that.
in fact i also had problems with thief deadly shadows.prior to that i played prince of persia warrior within and fear(all of them in 1024*765 high quality) and none of them was completely smooth. i definitely don't believe that is a cpu issue. ok... i admit that amd are better but this is not the source of the problem. i have overclocked my cpu at 3.36ghz(fsb 240 and cpu is locked at 14x), memory is running at 640 mhz with dram settings at 3-2-3-8. this is the first video card that i put in my system so,there are no drivers of onother card installed. still, there are no temperature issues. cpu temperature never climbs above 66C full load. i would like to add the fact that i tried playing the game (nfsmw)in 800*600 but there were STILL probs for f... shake!!the only thing that i can think of is that i have my windows installed for about 3-4 months now. do you think that a fresh installation will help?i have read in several posts that 7800gtx is a very good card but i unfortunately haven't seen anything yet!

I really, really doubt a 3ghz P4 is the problem.

See for yourself.

It sounds like you are either missing motherboad chipset drivers, or there is a problem with windows.
Does the Pentium-D require a dual core patch like the Athlon X-2?
Would setting processor affinity help?
