Hi

thanks for the input MadDias,so basically you think it's my processor, dam i knew I should have just bought a new mobo and better Intel chip. Thing is why did I get a better score in 3dMark 06 with my old X1900XTX and it wasn't running in Crossfire. I got 11500 with 1900xTX, where as I only get 10356 with newer 3870X2. I'm using same setup apart from newer mobo and gfx card.

Thanks again for all your help n advice I really do appreciate it
