Hi there,
I think the thread title covers it all. I recently bought an ASUS NV8800Gtx video card and I would like to know if everything is okay with it. I need you expertise
My configuration is:
Asus P5KC motherboard
Core 2 Duo E6750 CPU (running on 3.1 Ghz)
2x1 Gig Geil Value 800 RAMs
FSP Bluestorm 400W Power supply
and the above mentioned videocard.
Platform: Windows XP Service pack 2
So my problem is: after having paid a lot of money for this config I would like to know why am I getting lower framerates on particular benchmarks and games than those with almost the same rig.
3Dmark06: 11400 points
As I heard that is more or less okay, but when it comes to gaming I'm quite disillusioned. There are a couple of test on youtube, especially the ones by seahawk which show me that sg is not quite right here.

I compared a lot of games benchmark results with his rig and in every case I got fewer points. I'm not trying to compete with anyone but having paid a lot of cash for the gtx I would really love to know what is "holding it back"
Please help me, any comments on any part of my configuration is welcome.
Many thanks in advance
