Not bad... I'm not an expect but I though a X1900xtx would score a little higher in 3Dmark05. But I guess with a little gentle overclocking persuasion....!

You should try to overclock, it gets you a few extra fps, not that you need it. You can't ruin your card anyway because most cards have thermal throttling.

actually it's because his cpu's at stock if I run a stock 05 on both cpu and vga I get an 8900, with cpu at 2.9GHZ, I get a 9400. most cpu's bottleneck with the x1800 series, which makes the bottleneck even more with the x1900 seires.
