Here's Nvidia's line on TNT2 clock speeds: "The ultimate frequency achieved in end user systems depends on the chip cooling strategy, board design and the system environment that the board runs in. Each board vendor will make design and cooling decisions, and environmental assumptions and spec the part according to these choices. The RIVA TNT2 chips were designed to operate at extremely high frequencies. The Diamond V770 that you reviewed demonstrated that. With the right combination of advanced board design, intelligent cooling strategies and high quality manufacturing, I fully expect to see end users running TNT2 based cards at frequencies that meet or exceed the ones you saw in your testing." Derek Perez Public Relations Manager NVIDIA Corporation OT - PC Upgrades: Whatever else you save $$ on (my Celeron 400 is fast enough), make sure your storage doesn't bottleneck you. Without being at all qualified, I'd recommend an IBM Deskstar GXP hard drive (10.1GB $250) and a Hi-Val True-X 52x CD-ROM ($129). Peter S
