    6800 gt AGP OCing

    Im not sure.... I would start with changing out the heatsink and putting down some AS5, not sure if that would help you OC, but it is worth a shot. If you can I would get a NV5 and lap it really well... maybe someone else knows of another good cooler too. Have you tried looking on some other...

    6800 gt AGP OCing

    What type of 6800 is it? What did you use to softmod the card? In my opinion yes it is worth getting something like the NV5, keep my card cool :) Are you using Rivatuner and coolbit together? What version of forceware drivers are you using... maybe we can figure this out if you fill in the blanks

    Socket 939 vs AM2

    Thats a really good question... when the AM2 first came out my friend and I looked into this to see which one was better... the only difference we took away was that the AM2 basically has a better memory controller and supports DDR2 (which is super expensive right now) Now when you look at...
