    overclocked my e4300 to around 3.1 ghz and in combination with the 8800gtx, its only scoring around a 43,000 on 3dmark2001-SE. http://img187.imageshack.us/my.php?image=cpuzpictherats9.jpg those are my configurations and what not, any ideas on how to improve my pc's performance?

    8800GTX + E4300 driver issues

    ok, i have xp 32 bit, and i cannot find a good pair of drivers for my gtx, none of them seem to work, my scores on 3dbenchmark2001 are around 30000, a bit too low. by the way, my e4300 isnt overclocked AT ALL, this could be holding it back, but i was thinking drivers may have been an issue...

    Will my proposed PC be the death of me? An old man needs advice.

    I have also been looking at these forums and have been talking to a lot of experts. From what i have heard, especially from the more fanatic pc goers, you should either buy the q6600 or just overclock the e4300.. if youre willing to overclock that is...

    built computer (sort of budgety)

    I actually found that one myself, but I wasnt sure. Here is what I have changed so far: went with an xclio goodpower 500w power supply instead of the xfinity. saved some additional money on input devices etc. and will possibly upgrade to an e6600, however I am not sure if this upgrade...

    built computer (sort of budgety)

    hmm you guys do have a point with the motherboard, any more specific suggestions for that price range? I found this, but not really sure if it works. I can't find a lot of boards in +/- 10 $100 range. i have hd555's

    built computer (sort of budgety)

    I wanted to go with the sli mobo so that I could buy a second 8800 in the future and upgrade. Also, I think 160 gb should be plenty for me. (I was even considering getting an 80mb one for $35)
