I currently have a 460GTX as my main rendering card and a 8800GT as my screen driving card. I have just found out that the 8800 has been dragging the 460 down to its speed (oops). So I think I will need to ditch the 8800.

Can anyone suggest a bed fellow for the 460 which will not have this affect.

Whilst I am here, anyone want to buy a 8800GT card???

How about a 2nd 460 2gb model ?.At least they should both use the same driver. :idea:
CPU:-AMD 1055T 6 core, Motherboard:-Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 AM3+, Gigabyte GTX 460-1GB, RAM:-8GB Kingston hyper X Genesis DDR3 1600Mhz D/Ch, Hard Disk:-500GB samsung F3 , OS:-Win7 64bit
