Question 3DMark Scoring low on new high end build.

[xoxyzzer]

Hello

I built a new system a couple months ago and am getting what I think are unusually low scores for my system on 3DMark's Timespy benchmark.
My specs are:

i9-12900k w/ EVGA 2 fan CLC
MSI MPG z690 mobo.
RTX 3080ti Founders edition.
16gb DDR4 @ 2300 mhz ram.
2tb SSD.
850watt PSU

Here are the results:

Any idea what's going on here? Thanks in advance.

Have you overclocked the gpu? If no your results are being compared to people who overclock so you would expect to be behind.

Can you check that RAM speed, it’s an odd number. Anything in the low 2000 is low by today’s standards, that will cost some performance.

It's 2133 MHz, not 2300, my mistake. And I don't overclock right now. I used to run this bunchmark with overclocking And I got a max score of 19000+, but I've since wiped my OS/

Exactly, you will be behind the average without overclocking. Add to this list the slowest DDR4 speed costing you some performance I really don’t see anything wrong.

Just upped my RAM speeds to 3000MHz on BIOS and wow, what a difference!

Is this still on the <Mod Edit> end of performance though?

Looks fine if not overclocking the gpu. People overclocking will run these benchmarks multiple times pushing up the average
