Hi Dan
It was Nero loading up one of my cores at 80-90% on startup so i used msconfig to remove it from the startup.
What also helped was some GTL REF voltage tweaks.

Re: Buy 9800GX2 or wait for GT200
How's that watercooling unit working for you? What sort of temps are you seeing? Nice to see that you have put the case to good use, but seriously, you have no excuse for messy cables with the amount of room to hide them behind the motherboard tray! :axe: Dan The watercooler is good but the only th...

Re: Buy 9800GX2 or wait for GT200
Thanks for all your responses I am based in the UK where a EVGA 9800GX2 SSC will cost $900 so i dont see the new card being much more expensive then this, which is quite steep anyway. I am going to hold on but do you think the new cards will come out in July or just rumours? I suppose you have to li...
