Well, it is DDR1. At One point I had it at 2-2-2-5-1T. I'm not sure why it isn't there now (maybe the 2-2-2-5 was with my 2 x 512MB). Anyway, it runs Oblivion and M2TW which is mostly all I play right now.
Edit: Though that may change soon. I just got my free copy of Vista, so DX10 here I come (eventually)!

Unfortunately my good comp is at home (I'm at college right now) so Vista will have to wait until early summer. The best I have here is a Tablet with 2GHz Core 2 and X1400 Graphics
Nice lambofgode3x. Is that 2900XT @ stock? Only other difference I see is that you got a little better OC on the processor. Maybe I need to go back and try again
actually, its a 2900 pro that i flashed to a full xt and i'm running it at 840 core and 890 memory. the way i got the cpu to clock that high is by enabling the "cpu overvolt" option. it overvolts the cpu by .2v and enables 8 phase power (stock is 4 phase) which made my overclock a lot more stable. so even though the cpu voltage option reads 1.45 volts, its actually 1.65v cuz of the overvolt optioin. (if you do it, do it at your own risk obviously). try setting your cpu voltage to 1.2V and enable the cpu overvolt option, then see where that takes you. i stumbled across that little bit of information by dumb luck and it worked. without that option enabled, my max oc is only 2.73 before it gets unstable.
also, roll your drivers back to 8.2 and make another run. your score should go up.
ditch the ultra x2 and the thermaltake gpu power supply if you can (i have both of them too). the thermaltake cant really power the 2900pro's and xt's very well...i'm running my computer off my corsair 520W and i'm now running my video card off my old ultra x2 550 (which is running 24/7 cuz its hotwired.. hehe). for some reason, even with the card at stock, my score is still like 9800 or so. i dont know why.... i think 3dmark06 is very cpu bound.

Thanks for the advice, but i don't think I'm going to put any more money into this computer. I've already replaced every part but the Motherboard, and I think it is starting to go bad. This comp has had a long and hard life of OCing, and right now it does everything I need and I'm kind of scared to touch it (I need it to last at least until winter or hopefully until next summer).
But right now my system is in pieces. I'm RMA'ing my 680iSLI board for an upgrade deal through EVGA who is giving me the 780iSLI for $89. Only problem is they want the old board before the send the new one to me. I don't expect it to change my scores but it will give me PCIE 2.0 and support for Yorkfield quadcores which the old board would not do, hence the upgrade deal.
. i think 3dmark06 is very cpu bound.
