heres those drivers tho...
download> NVIDIA 80.40 Beta Forceware Driver
"Nvidia stated that Release 80 should fully-enable performance boost on dual-core systems, such as the Pentium D and Athlon 64 X2. Ben de Waal, VP of GPU Software was especially proud of that supposed achievement - such as a 20-30% boost in performance from new drivers alone - of course, in certain apps. Also, a lot of SLI related improvements are due,...."
and some other interesting things that those drivers give 'hints' to...
"nForce5" chipsets from Nvidia will have integrated graphics inside"
"Number of G72 and G72-related strings also can hide screamin' fast GeForce "7600"? Go and Quadro Go products."
"the new drivers feature support for H.264 encoding on the 7800 series of products. So yes, they do have a working PureVideo processor inside"
"nForce 5" is problably C51, suppose to be a cheap alternative, based off the nVidia 6 tech onboard card, they're saying 6200 performance, plus a 16X Express addon slot, good audio, SATA2 etc... we're hyping it up more then nVidia is, so it could be it, but i still dont see why it needs it own count down clock if thats it.
