I have an AMD FX 8120 and was just checking if those numbers are correct.
I'm running it at 3.4 GHz with 2.1 volts and got a Cinebench score of 491.
Could someone let me know if that's a good score for this kind of CPU?

Low prices are typical for the FX-8120. It's quite old technology.

at 2.1 ish volts? not sure about its default voltage but my fx-8320 runs at 1.2v at stock, oced @4.6 with 1.425v.
You might face a low score if your CPU slows down because of overheating, which can be caused by overvoltage.
