XFX 8600GTS 512MB low FPS
I just bought a 8600GTS as replacement for my 6600GT. i ran 3dmark06 and all i got was 2872 points, while the card scored 5800 points in other tests.
my specs are: Amd Athlon 64 3500+ 2.2GHZ Asus A8N-SLi DeLuxe 1GB DDR RAM 200GB 7200 Seagate XFX 8600GTS 512MB, all stock. Tagan 480 watt PSU what is wrong here? my FPS in rFactor (50-80FPS) is lower then with my 6600GT (80-100), but TD:U fps has doubled and i have got 50-60FPS with everything on full with HDR on, without AA @ 1440*900. Why o why. my PSU should be powerfull enough. i've used the converter (2 * 4 pin molex to 6 Pin PCI-e) to give it additional power. my PSU does have a 6 pin psu of it's own though. thanks for the help.

EDIT: i checked in everest, it says this:  So, it IS running at 1x. I have configured it in the left slot you can see in this picture: http://pctuning.tyden.cz/ilustrace2/..._board_big.jpg first i put it in the right slot of the board, but that gave me a beep and 'system failed vga test' voice. the 'sli card' between the slots is set to 'single card mode'

Looks like it's running at 1x in your screenshot.
This should tell you for sure: http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/ |

Try and see if your pc will boot up with the blue slot.
