Hello, I upgraded my iMac 27 i3 cpu with an i7 870 per your guide and everything is working, however geekbench test scores are in the low 3000's for multicore and in 900's for single core. Any idea why?
Is this a good question?

did you take out the small battery on the back of the logic board after replacing the CPU?
leave it out for a couple of minutes; Resets the RTC.
SMC reset might work as well.
