433710 2006-02-25 08:01:00 Hey everyone,
I just finished upgrading my system to aus a8n-sli deluxe, 3700+ amd and e-Geforce 7800GT. Now im wondering how to go about tweaking all of this new stuff. Not that its necessary to do any overclocking or tweaking. I just want to know whats possible.
Thanks in advance,
Josh

433711 2006-02-25 08:50:00 My advice, don't bother tweaking. You've got good enough hardware, plus, you will gain little by increasing clock speeds and bandwidth. Haze (3028)
433712 2006-02-25 16:39:00 Okay, i wont bother!

Some more questions, my mobo supports dual raid. My hard drive isnt SATA but on startup it keeps asking me to setup my raid devices, is there a way to disable this or anything?
Also with the 7800GT is it benificial to mess with the global driver settings say for half-life 2 etc.
Thanks again all.

And you could use ASUS AI overclock in the BIOS. Its more an overclock on demand thing, try 5%

433715 2006-02-26 09:25:00 Here's a link (dlsvr01.asus.com) for the manual.

Its from here (support.asus.com)

Type the model of the mobo in the top left-hand corner.

Hopefully, you have winzip or something to unzip it.
