    I'm not sure if Powerstrip works on nVidia cards, but you can try. I have a 30% overclock on my card using it right now.

    unless you volt mod and constantly run LN2, no amount of OCing will help that card. I think there was a topic about this before... where you bragged about how you got it at a local computer store and how damn 1337 it was... because all the guys at compUSA know what they are talking about(see article where tech guy suggested compUSA generic 350W PSU for a conroe XE &x1900XTX CF settup)

    nvidia GeForce 6200 PCI is your only hope. It is the best PCI GFX card on the market. it costs 27$ and shoudl offer close to 4 times the performance of the GeForce 4 you have.



    also for safe and sane OCIng, try coolbits, it has an auto OC function which takes most fo the guesse work out of it(might runa little higher than the auto OC though but not a ton)

    (current clock-stock clock)/stock clock...

    a 100mhz default core at 200 mhz is a 100% overclock
    a 200mhz core at 300 is a 50% overclock
    a 300mhz core at 400 is a 33% OC


    so yeh...


    and CB can eb used right away, but it won't actually do anything unless you use it... just go into display proerties colock frequency settings, it is pretty easy
