Thanks for staying interested!
Hi, yes well ok im now a few posts behind, yes i know the vid card aint the greatest, but observing what i did, which is exactly how i wrote it on the board, the idea that its cpu related is quite compeling. Theres only one way to settle this, which is to post overclocking results. Yeah i might get a 4fps increase,which wont set the world on fire, nor even my underwear for that matter, but it would prove the point. Well, thats whats got me interested in overclocking my cpu, but not really my gpu, as i dont see the greatest all-round return for it, and as I might as well wait a while and upgrade when the card has had some good use, say 6 months, and then go out and buy its natural successor, the 8600. That would be kinda nice cos I would have had each cards intended replacement! (6600, 6600gt 256mb agp (not that easy to find!), 7600gt and then 8600) cant really include 6600 in that lineage i guess as its too close, but the step up to the 6600gt was actually larger than i imagined.
Thanks for the interest guys, dont worry about getting mad, i kinda wrote with a tone intended to do that! sorry.....
