Explain exactly how you came to this conclusion.

I have the 5 volt plug in
correctly. I have even ran another 5 volt plug from another power supply to
the card and there is no change. Any ideas ? Thanks !

I used the program "AIDA 32" It says that my GPU speed is 50MHZ. My
real
clock speed is 104 MHZ. My effective clock speed is 208 MHZ. My other
computer is a Geforce TI 3. All the numbers on it match with what it
says
in it's manual. The bandwidth is 3341MB/s with the 5700 ultra. With the
Geforce 3 it is 6641 MB?s Thanks for responding.

Could be a bug in Aida32. Remember, Aida32 needs to know about your specific
GPU to know how to accurately calculate it's speed/memory bandwidth.

Try a different benchmark program to be sure

Check your clocks with Rivatuner

Have a great day,

I downloaded and installed rivatuner. It shows my core at 300 and my memory
at 900. The memory speed is correct, but the core is 175 MHZ. low. I
overclocked the core to 450. I saw very little improvement. Is it about
time to call the manufacturer?

300Mhz is the speed the GPU runs at in 2D mode.
Install the coolbit registry hack and then check the display adapter Clock
Frequencies setting for 'Performance' mode.
