Set Up:
Athlon XP 3000+ OC'd to (2.17 Ghz at 217 Mhz FBS)
Gigabyte GA-7N400Pro2 MOB oc'd to 217 Mhz FBS
Maxtor 120 Gig SATA Drive
Gainward 5950 ultra OC'd to 490mhz/980mhz
SB Audigy 2 ZSAuqumark3 score 45300
3dmark03 score 6500rate my scores?
Also, cpu temp maxes at about 59c and system at about 39c... seems kinda high considering I have a slk800a. I bought a 900a and arctic silver 5... hopefully this will help cpu temps, but any other suggestions would be helpful. If you look at the layout of the board, the fins on the slk series heatsinks are perpendicular to ideal airflow, added to the chipset fan sucking air before it can reach the cpu heatsink fan... do you think if I istalled a passive northbridge heatink that it would allow more airflow to cpu heatsink. If so, what passive heatsink would you recommend. Keep in mind that space is tight.Also, any suggestions on how to increase performance? 217 mhz seems to be my max bus speed because my memory is limiting factor.... but I think I might be able to change the multiplier to increase cpu speed...
I could also OC the vid card some more...
Any suggestions or comments would be helpful.
Thanks.
