Lower Cpu Score with GPU Overclock

Is this normal. I increased core clock from 620-625 and my cpu score decreased with 3DMark Vantage.

put your video card back to normal and see if the cpu score changes. if you run the test 5 times with the same settings, each set of scores will be different

At normal (600mhz), the CPU score was 22339. So it was lower..
