Thought I would share a few pic's of my current rig which is potentially being upgraded at the end of this month.

Hope you like it.

Before I watercooled and changed my cpu

I have posted a 3D Mark 11 score but it is low for some reason apparently my graphic's card is not working properly

and basically it means I am only getting a score of P5865 when apparently I should be in the P6000 range.

Taken from there site

Overall Score Mine P5865 Target P6000

Graphics Score Mine P5380 Target P5700

Physics Score Mine P10724 Target P8900

Combined Score Mine P5848 Target P5900

Well did some OC'ing on the Graphic's card and got mixed result's

Cannot understand the result from the 925mhz overclock on the GPU as I thought that would have seriously bumped up the score.
 
The gpu might have been getting to its thermal limit and throttling itself a bit or not enough voltage for the clock casing it to get a little unstable at some points? give 875-900 a try and see how that goes.

My 8800gt gave best performance when i pulled it back around 20 mhz from the max "stable" core speed it would do and around 15 on the memory.

Higher 3d mark scores AND a higher minimum fps in game benchmarks even tho it was only by by 1 or 2fps...

Well I did abit more testing last night and found the stock voltage is 988mv and found if I put the voltage above 1025mv the scores go through the floor, even with the GPU not going above 70c as I put the fan up to 100% as I can handle the noice while running the tests.

I may get a waterblock for the card as they are only £40 for the core only and just push the card, to it's limits and probably kill it at the same time

which I don't mind to much as I will be replacing the card soon anyway.
