My new project

That's true Quantum ;D......my freestanding speakers were a present off my son, but one of them is broken. If I really want to listen to music I plug my headphones in, they are brilliant.

Yep, built in monitor speakers ok for gen use, but if you want to hear whats really going on, then add the outside speakers depending on your budget .
I only have Advent speakers with sub woofer. Nice BLUE lights.lol Think they are only abt 16-20 watts but ok for moment. They are squeezing power and clarity into very small packets nowadays and if you shop around you can get good prices .Even a simple 50w for £25. http://www.mplex.com/shop/index.php?app=ccp0&ns=prodshow&ref=1562.

Probably a limited manufacturing process fault, never heard this problem from anyone else before.

A little update on project.
Processor running at 2.7ghz 1,535 FSB. Graphics card 694mhz core 940x2 (1880)mem. Gives 11,551 3D Marks. Seems bench marks from the pro`s on graphics card are 705 core and 951 mem. I picked figures slightly below these . Temps at moment 36deg for CPU and 32 deg for mobo(on freezer 7 pro). Quantum, would another card and SLI Produce better results?
cheers
Another curious thought is that my 8800gt is fanless and bench marks as above are for cards with fan.???

Of course adding another card in SLi would produce better results, but not very cost effective ones as you need to buy the same or near the same card for ~40% the gain. The specs of SLi are always set by the lowest performing card, so you can't just add another cheap one and expect better results, at least not until Hybrid SLi has matured and it's not even been launched yet.
