I seldom use the newest drivers...seems I always fall back on tried and true older versions. Hope this is all worked out as I have a LE I am getting ready to install in my 24/7 pc. (probably use just one old 8800 GTS in it tho...)

Never fear!

Actually the manual does not really help much.

Settings in bios were way off for my ram...
After looking at some stuff online, I got all my settings good, the ram will only run up to about 1320MHZ for 2d benches, and the same for 3d benches.

Have a looksie at the first official results.
This is single card, one stick of ram and CPU at about 4.4ghz.

Ram is important, especially since the memory controller is in the CPU!

Was able to get to 4.5ghz for super pi with no sweat at all, but my ram will not allow anything higher. ATM I am ok with that, because i was well aware that it would need replacing!

Thanks bud!

Just glad I got her figured out, now to complete my project in the next few days and get back to work, hopefully I can resume work tomorrow.

Man this thing runs like a beast! Can't believe the improvements, it is really fast!

So far I am loving it, but also am understanding why so many people are having issues.

Just happy she is running like a champ..... for now.

Trust me I'll get it! It may require better ram for a 4.5+ run

WOW looking at the hwbot, that score would get me the 19th top spot overall, and that was without really trying, and my crappy ram.

Hmmm now I have something to prove!
