Not to be a cynic, but why are you back on your AMD as your primary rig?

ZealotKi11er, not to sound ignorant or anything but I didn't know the 48xx series was able to fold yet. This is interesting

48xx can indeed fold. They are only about 10% faster than a 38xx because of bad driver optimizations.

Ahhh, guys I'm so happy with my purchase. TBH, I'm glad I didn't go anything lower than a 9800GT. On crysis, I would run mainstream on the normal levels at only about 22-40 fps. Now I run high, and even on the ice levels, I'm getting about 25-50 fps. Definitely worth it. W/ everything maxed in COD4, the lowest I've seen is 55 fps w/ an average of around 80 outside, and about 110 inside. Even my CSS fps avg went from 124 to 164. Now I can't wait to SLI. (I'm so greedy )

Good luck

Okay, well I can't seem to break 3.1GHz yet. I can now however BOOT INTO WINDOWS and be internet stable with it now...that's a plus! Before It wouldn't even POST. It seems to be a RAM stability still somehow.

However my temps did go down near 10*C by switching coolers at the same overclock!

Great job

Oh yeah, sorry, they were done at 1280x1024. I think soon I'll go SLI, and see how it performs, and then get a nice 22 incher for X-mas. We'll see . I'm happy w/ performance now, so I might just go 1440x900.

Pez, there is a couple of settings in COD4 that can actually be disabled that may free up some frames. Unfortunately I can't remember what exactly I disabled but after I made some changes I was averaging 80-100FPS on most of the maps. This was at 1440x900 so I am guessing you may see some higher numbers at 1280x1024.

Good luck
