    Anybody know of the better drivers out there for this card? I haven't messed with drivers for months, and for a 256mb 7900 graphics card in PCI-E I feel it should outperform the 256mb x850 Pro in AGP on my desktop. Then again maybe it's the generic RAM killing my performance? :/

    Whatever it is, my desktop is outperforming my laptop and my laptop has some pretty high end specs for a non-dedicated gaming machine. e1705 Generic RAM, NO ultra-sharp, 1.83GHz Core Duo, 7200 RPM HDD.

    Desktop is a single core Athlon 64 OC @ 2.3GHz, x850 Pro gfx, 1GB Corsair RAM, 7200 RPM HDD.

    I even formated and put in a new HDD in the laptop so I'm pretty sure the hardware isn't underclocked by Dell...
