ok, so I finally get my nice new rig up and running,
epox 8kha
512 ddr crucial
1.33 thunderbird
elsa gladiac 920,
etc etc
and low in behold, I run 3dmark 2001 and my system scores a paltry 3400?? Also the textures started wanking off while playing giants, something I thought I wouldn't have to deal with when using an expensive ass top of the line gfx card. Anybody have any ideas?? (already installed the 12.41 det drivers, no help at all)

set your agp apeture size to 128 megs(mine was 64 and barely broke 4k) make sure you are at 4xagp and use det 12.90(score better and are more stable for me at least).

see if setting the agp apeture size to 256 helps, with 512megs ram you can spare it.

good lord thas a lot of storage space, thanks for the advice, I'll try it out, having trouble finding someplace to grab the 12.90 dets quickly but I'm sure I'll locate them, thanks again, will see if that helps out
