My upgraded PC

Ive stuck a beautiful Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 (3Ghz) into my Bad Axe II motherboard. Its not supposed to happen, the board only has an FSB of 1066Mhz and the CPU has an FSB of 1333. It took a long time but I finally got it working, even managed to inadvertantly overclock my RAM speed. Heres the current specs:

CPU: Conroe E6850 @ 3.0Ghz
Board: Bad Axe II (3xPCIE slots)
GFX: 9800GTX
RAM: 2 x 1GB DDR2-800 (@833Mhz)

Let me douse some rumours:
The 8800 Ultra is far superior
The 8800GTX is still superior
The 9800GTX is incorrectly named, its just a cheaper 8800GT, NOT the landmark groundbreaking next generation card its name suggests.

But it still plays like this!






Note: Assasins Creed is running on max settings @ 1680*1050 (limited at 60fps)
FRAPS captured at half resolution and half framerate (still a 2GB file!)
