Tuning my new comp

Hey,
I just built my new computer and I was wondering how I can squeeze every last bit of performance out of it, so does anyone know any good tuners or drivers to speed things up? I would like things as fast as they can get but I don't want to (manually) overclock too much right now.

Build a brand new system with very good specs & it's STILL not fast enough? Why are people never satisfied?
Did you tweak your WinXP installation? Prevent unnecessary programs from loading at startup? Create a relatively small partition for the operating system so that it's more responsive & easier to maintain?
Updating to the latest drivers is generally a good idea. The ones that come included with the motherboard & video card are usually slight outdated.
