The issue of system bottlenecks has been, for the most part, addressed, and most current hardware combinations work reaosnably well together. Therefore, though your 1700+ is behind the curve as far as state of the art, it will not impact your 5600 negatively. Here's a link to a dated (but appropriate) scaling article. http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.html?i=1650 HTH! |

I run XP2100B+ at 2400 with a GF3.The GF3 is definitely the bottleneck.I
think an XP1700+ overclocked (say 2200 to 2400 speed) would work out well -- Steve H Epox 8RDA+ v1.1,Vdd mod XP2100B at 2400(12x200)1.8V DIY watercool(all copper) GF3 at 240/540 det 43.45 "jorgen" wrote in message ...

No increase in frame rates whatsoever with my GF3 even at medium resolutions (1024x768). K |

That's right. A GF3 maxes out at about 1700+ speed. A GFX5600 will
probably max out at about the 2500+ range. Dave "K" wrote in message ... "steven harvey" wrote in message u...
