    Damn I am going on holiday and getting a FX-55 so my HW will be changed in about 2weeks.

    But just for the record. With 9800LE I had best expirience with XP SP2 overall and 4.12's, deffenately the best combo for that card.

    4.12's I would say. With my 9600PRO and 9800LE that was the best ones for both.

    I just ticked 8794 on a x700 pro. Is that normal in this class? that puts me around 15th overall in this card class regardless of CPU for this project so I'm assuming it's OK. Not much of a benchmarker here so bear with the stupid questions please

    UGH, looks like a serious stability problem with the system. Try the last BIOS you were using first and see if it goes back to the way it was.

    Whats best approved nvidia driver for 6800 in 03? Do I want win XP pro over win 2k?

    I was REALLY hoping Pi would be first so I'd have time to finish phase for GPU...

    Magni..... your score says it's not run with approved drivers. Don't we have to use FM approved drivers, I seem to remember seeing that somewhere???

    Aaaaaahhhh, my card is still in the mail! I really wanted to try out some VTT mods on this SLI-DR. Obviously I'm out if it's not here in 4 days.

    Avoid the 5.6s for '01, 5.4s are good for that IIRC. I know 5.6s are some of the worst for it though.
    For those of you about to post:

    yepp fm asked me to tell you guys to please only use approved drivers and in return they would support the grand prix and give us some prizes
    so please only use approved drivers, if theres a driver thatsa isnt approved yetz and you want it approved let me know and i will ask futuremark to approve them asap if possible

    and Magnj, chilled air?
    but then again half of the people here on air are using air conditioning in their apartments/homes i guess... well, as i said we are gonna decide what categories we set up between this and next week
