Yeah I know my computer is bad. lol but hey I used to have a 5200!.
My 12month warranty ran out last month on the 6600, do you guys reckon I should OC it. Been looking at coolbits, as it seems the most straight forward option
Because my mobo only supports AGP x4 I’m not really looking to upgrade the GPU. However I’m seriously thinking about building a new computer around September time

I would have overclocked it the first day I got it. To tell you the truth, there is no way they could know if your card had been overclocked or not if you do it via software.

Ok thanks, I will look into this tommorrow.
and yeah i had never really thought about it before that the company would never know that you had overclocked it via software.

With a 7600GT, you should be getting into the high 3000s and into the early 4000s at stock speeds.

Not bad, but I got a bit over 10K with my E6300 @ 3.13Ghz, and 8800GTS oc'd

how much of a difference have you noticed with the cpu and gfx card overclocked? i have oc'd my cpu to 3.15ghz on the stock cooler and its so much faster than stock speeds lol, as soon as i get a tuniq tower i will try 4ghz maybe higher..... quad core soon anyway lol...

omega, you should have spread out the 2 windows of 3d mark 06, not over lapping each other. i think it's a little suss, reason being is because you are covering up the information in which says which resolution etc you ran it at and 2nd of all you didnt even have all of the tests switched on. that is very close to my score and i did more tests than you......

I have everything running at default. The reason I overlapped was so it didnt take up as much space.
And since you dont believe me, here are all my other benchmarks that I took, so hopefully you will at least believe it a bit more:

yer like i said you may well be showing the real shit, i realized that you ran the tests with 8800gts and E6300 but what i didn't realize was that you have obviously done a lot of overclocking to them he he. once again, well done...
