hi, i see that your video card as a ramdac of 350mghz vs other fx5200 that
possed 400mghz.

But it should'nt be the reason of your low performence in the game, maybe
it just with this game NWN that your VC performe badly ex: GTA vice city
add some video rendering issue. now with the new diver it seem to be an
old problem.

plus getting almost 1000 at 3dmark 03 is good, why i'm i thinking that...
i get around 700 + with mind and all my game run smooooothly.
