Unhappy

To cut a long story short,i was playing about with my mem settings in BIOS,setting them to aggressive to get a higher 3DMark score etc,and for some reason i still dont know i set the BIOS back to default.I have set everything back to what it should be,but know my 3DMark score has gone from 12000-6500ish.

what the hell am i not doing?Im pulling my hair out wondering!

cheers guys

Thumbs down

To get such a drastic loss, you must have changed FSB or CPU setting..
