I need to know which of the 4in1s are the best for gaming and playing DivX movies. I think I tried the 4.27 s for games and they worked fine, but my divx movies would freeze while I looked at them, which is not a good thing I have seen nearly 100 today. I would also like to know what nvidia drivers are the best for my card. I am currently using 6.50 and they seem too fast, but if I alt-tab I bluescreen. My card has a TV-out, and this should be supported in the drivers, which doesnt support 7.52, because I tried.
please help me, the freezing issue is the biggest problem, I would Anandtech tests 4.24 and 5.22 for 4in1 nvidia drivers, this is the best setup? Any other hints / tips / help you could give me a setup kt133a/tbird great.
Also inform me of all the BIOS settings to ram faster or something to be! PLEASE!

Re:Anandtech's reviews have hand-picked heatsinks. most super-orbs and mini-super orbs have very subpar heatsink bases, which adversely effect performance.
The PAL6035 is an older-revision pal, newer ones have a revised clip and perform at near PEP66 levels.
The Taisol CGK is likewise better than your run of the mill super-orb/mini-super orb. There's a reason people get similiar temps between orbs and other heatsinks, yet can overclock significantly more when not using the orbs.

Re:Dunno about fitting the orbs. The KT7 had issues and I think I read the resistors have been moved back, but if you really want no cooling issues, go for a FOP-38. It's not too expensive and it keeps my T-Bird running at 43 at idle and 51 under load. And it fits great on my KT7A.
Re:In anandtech's review both of these heatsinks were exactly the same as the super orb.. what makes them better?
I have a kt7a also, will either one fit?
Re:try turning on "enhanced chip performance" in the bios if you haven't already… I had that same problem with delta force land warrior.. and it was fixed by turning that on.
also try the 4.29 drivers from viahardware.com they seem pretty good.
and that cooler is sub par for a 1.2ghz athlon… get a taisol cgk742 or FOP32-1
Re:It's running anywhere from 42-52C, and i've had it crash on me when it was ~45C, which shouldnt happen?
