One last question. What are some good benchmarking programs, tweaking programs, and drivers? I am trying to compile a list of useful programs to burn before I leave for college to live with my aunt and lose my DSL. So, I am gonna try and download and burn em all to save me the looooong haul later. I know 3DMark2k1 is a good benching program, and powerstrip a good vid card program. Any others? And on the drivers, im going to be using a KT7a as my mobo, so any suggestions there on what I should have prepared. I will also be using win2k and the KyroII when it ships, so I won't worry about drivers for it for awhile. Any ram tweaking programs or anything else that would be highly useful for tweaking, benchmarking, speeding up, enhancing, etc...? Thanks...gonna miss my DSL. Soon as I get my college computer in 2 months, then my overclocking/tweaking life shall begin....(ps-dell is not cool)

3DMark2000 for one. Sisoft Sandra for another.

kyro 2, yuck. 3d mark 2000 might be good for a card of that caliber, but otherwise its gay. how much ram you got? if you have 256 or less then a ram scrubber could help for certain things, a good one is memturbo, but it only lasts 30 days and then u gotta register/buy it, so do a search. listen, i have ALOT of really good programs, games, OS's etc, and some very expensive ones, my email is leemspencer@mindspring.com, and i am also on msn by that email address, talk to me man, i can hook u up by mail or something.

The first LAN party I went to was at a PETA convention. They booted me when I shot a crab in HL!
