All benchmark or FPS numbers are for the most part meaningless unless you tell us what resolution you're running at. If you're getting 38 fps and you're running the game at 1280x1024, that sounds about right for your system With a similar setup (except and Athlon XP for me instead of an Athlon 64) and running at 1024x768, I used to get around 46 fps with my 9800 Pro.
