i dont think you can flash or modify a 6600LE to anything... not the newer ones at least.
and even with the eariler ones it was a bit of a problematic process that didnt always work...

you cant do that. and even if you could, be a bad idea sense all bios's are homebrews and could fry your gpu. or worse. safe way is to upgrade yoru other hardware. better cooling, faster ram. the beginner type of stuff. im advance with pcs and all. but you shoudl start the same way everytime, take your hardware to the max, before you tweak it to the max
edit, all bios that you can download for video cards are homebrews. (sorry, jsut to clearify myself)

Ok O.C the hell out of them. For you CPU when you boot up enter your setup and go to voltage/clock speeds or it will say somethin like that. When you find CPU speed just crank it up. For your card i use ATI tool. I use an nvidia card too but ATI tool works

i have a 6600le. you cant do crap with them. just overclock it as much as you can, itll still be worse than a 6600.

i have my 6600le at 320/545. im kind of curious to see what yours can do lol.

dont flash to the 6600 bios, you could fry your card. the 6600le has 4 pixel pipelines, while the 6600 has 8.
