Default These 3D Mark Vantage scores about right? How can i improve?

Ok, i just got 3D Mark Vantage so i'm pretty new to it really. I did a run (performance) at stock CPU and stock GPU and got a score of 10,250...



So i did i little overclock so then i was at 3600mhz on the CPU and 900mhz core and 1000mhz memory on the GPU. This time i got 11,279...



Does all this look ok or should i be getting more at stock and that little overclock. Also, is there anyway i can increase my score, other than increasing the GPU/CPU clocks more (which im going to try now).

Yeah i have been thinking about getting another 4890, but i've decided i'd prefer to go dx11, wait until dec/jan time when nvidia 300-series is around and gpu3 folding client (i heard its out around then anyway? (just getting into folding a bit! )) Then make the decision on a new GPU.
