Keep in mind i ordered it with a preformated hd and bough the winn xp my self. Ive installed all the latest drivers from windows update. and the cd that came with the motherboard for the onboard stuff. I know the video card is not all that great, but was hoping it would perform a bit better? Or is this as good as its gonna get? (i will buy an 9800pro when i have the spare gaming cash )


Nothing is Overclocked, or no hacked drivers. Every thing is official stock stuff. Mainly because I dont know how too Any comments / sudgestions would be good. and thanks for taking the time to read the post -

Go to your ati drivers control panel and set all the textures to high performance and also set Anti aliasing and Anistropic filtering to application preference.

You will probably score in the 3700 range.

Thanks for your reply.

When i set it to application preference should i put them on any thing specific? 2x / 4x ect ?

Benchmarks are pointless.

Play a game, if it plays poorly, tweak or upgrade.
