GeForce 3 brain cruncher -- SOLVED! Thank you!

[Guest]

Great news! I bought the ASUS K7V and everything works fine now! I am very excited about this, thank you everyone for your support and diligence in this endeavor. You've done a lot to help and made me very happy with my new video card!

I thought I'd post my PowerStrip 3 diagnostic report to see if there are any final thoughts as to how I can get this card working to its full potential. What do you think?

Congratulations and super <b>C L</b>. Now let us in on some benchmarks and how much you love it and why. Your PowerStrip report looks good and don't worry about sideband, it at best gives a minor performance increase but stability may go down, besides most nvidia cards seem to do better without it anyways. Make sure you use all that super 3d power you got now.

Well to eat your <b>C kie</b> and have it too, gotta get <b>Rade n II</b>
