just want to thank you guys for this thread. it has helped me find tweaks for getting the best possible pi time and also for setting goals to achieve at clockspeeds. i'm trying to see if i can break the 13minute barrier with 3.65 or less ghz on my 6600. so far i've been able to tweak down from 14m10s to 13m25s at 3.6. only 25 more seconds! lol.

@Johnny - thanks for this analysis you did.

i actually found that the luna theme made things faster in win2k3 (the most interesting tweak i've ever tried).

it actually lowered my 1M superpi time at 3.6 from 14.064 to 13.938!
