I would not pay too much attention to those numbers, it seems to me that this PC was not tuned properly, BIOS and other details are totally garbage on this config.
Look like a prius without the software tuning the Hybrid part of the prius ... the engine does not kick in at the right time, the power saving kick in when you need performance, etc ...
This is why I am avocating not to buy Illegal Samples, they are no completed, they are under-performing, they crash, and they are not representative of the futur by any way. This is mostly dis-information, you should not make your opinion on Sandy Bridge based on some config assembled improperly. More the Processors are evolving, more the receipe for the Power Control units will matter, and less the leaked CPUs will tell you what will happen, The PCU is power gating sub systems that are important to performance and Power.
This makes performance and power measurement totally impossible, even if you think you have a great BIOS and software!
