hi i'm noax963 i've just logged on to this site hopig to find an answer to my troubled question i've custom build my pc to a spec that i was happy with for light gaming and music mixing specs follow below
my pc
amd 64 3200+
1500 ddr 2700
ati 256ddr3 x550 pci express
nforce4 motherboard
with built in sound
custom case which is nice
80gb harddrive
500w power supply
4 fans cooling and a zalman res plus1 which rocks!!
but i'm stuck because when i got the water cooling for my pc i fitted it to my cpu, north gate and ati card and i thought that i would be able to get some serious speed but i was let down from a baseline of 3dmark 03 i get 2000-3000 which is terrible.
so i ask this to anyone what do i need to do to get more speed i use the overclocking software that came with my nforce4 motherboard ntune which i get to tweak with the hyper transport speed and pci express but it's not enough i want to get 3ghz from my cpu and to seriously improve my 3d card performance. as well as memory i have heat sinks on every chip on my ait x550 and a water block, cooling blocks on system memory. you know the rest.
i suppose i should ask what could i expect from a system like this???????
