Hi!

My new AMD Athlon 64 3000+ S939 (Venice Core) seems more sluggish in gaming than my Athlon XP 2600+, I was just wondering if these screens seem all ok with you guys

thanks, and that motherboard is a pain in the a** for overclocking, cant find anything i want

That all looks fine.

either try going to/from XP64, make sure all the drivers and suchlike are up to date.

i'll give Xp64 a shot tonight, should i expect much of a performance difference?

no idea.

you may also run into some problems with some games. (most likely CoD:UO and Doom3 will be cunts)

right now there basically is no performance increase for XP64.]

I would check yourheatsink fan to make sure it's installed properly.

also check your chipset drivers. you can get them from either you mobo maker's website, or from the chipset maker's website.
