High cpu rating

[angus000]

Hi, I don't know if this goes here but here I go.

My problem is that I always have a high cpu rating and I don't know why or how to fix it, since in my opinion my pc is not that bad.
So I would like to know why this happens.

My pc has a six core cpu with 3000 mhz each, 4 gb ram 667 MHz, and a ATI RADEON 6700 series.
My OS is windows 7 and my internet connection is 6 mb.

I have already opened ports.

In-game my rating is 1000 and I'm from Argentina. My cpu rating is usually between 325 and 425.

What do you guys think it could be?

That CPU rating (325-425) seems normal for a AMD 6 core cpu. Single core preformance on those 6 core CPUs are not that great.

So Amd is that bad for this things?

The main simulation of the game can only run on one core. Intel cpus are generally better at single core processing than amd ones. The only thing you could do to increase it is to overclock your cpu so you get more speed onto a single core.

Thanks guys, I overcloaked it and now my rating is 290, it's something at least. Though my video card and cpu overpass 70º C while playing, guess is common.
