@Jack Pepsi


Awesome score. I guess when my new RAM gets here (although I did post it in the specs)....i'll take another 3dMark05, and 06 run again.

Not too happy with my 7600 GT, but it did give me an increase in performance.

And I'm going to try out that GPU-Z....never seen that before.

ok here's mine.

Thankis man, I'm really pleased but I'm itchin' to reach 10K - if I can do that then I'm proving to myself that I don't need to upgrade until Nehalem has had time to mature. By then I'll probably be able to pick up a 5870 or higher.

As for GPU-Z it's awesome, plus W1zzard (TPU founder) is constantly working on it as well which is great.

did some more tweaks to the card, and used the Tweaks R US 86.63...this is what I got now..over 4000

I'm hoping with the new RAM coming, I can get even more out of it. My 2x512MB RAM are PC2100 (133mhz), and PC3200 (200MHZ)...I'm getting 2x1GB of PC3200 (400MHZ) I guess within a week as well as some artic silver. Just don't get eggsaver shipping.

I can definitely pay tribute to AGP. After owning an AGP GeForce 6600 and BFG 6800GT, the legacy of AGP should never die, even though it may.

I remember when the 6800GT came out, and I was blown away. I had an FX5600 and FX5200 before that, and the 6800GT stomped them both. It played Far Cry maxed (1280x1024 which was my CRT monitor's max, high settings) with room to breathe.

It is my firm belief that the 6800GT will set AGP in stone for many more years to come. It was one of those rare cases where the card lived up to the intense hype that went around before its release. It would be almost 4 years before an nVidia *800GT card would become a legend, and the 8800GT humbly took the crown.

A CPU upgrade might just push you to 10k since you're so close

See if you can find a used Opteron, 4000-4800+, or FX processor
