    I have the opty driver installed on my 165 but i don't think there's much diff between the two. but if you want to uninstall the x2 you have to go into safe mode and roll the driver all the way back to processor and then install the opty driver. but if your happy no point in doing it.

    having problems with newly upgraded comp

    i second the possiblity of a defective MB. However, if you can get the windows cd to boot you could do a repair on the drive and that will realign windows with your new hardware, and then from there install the right drivers for MB, GC and the like.

    6600GT overclocked in SLI mode vs 6800 gt?

    I just saw that MSI is coming out in the week or so with the first 256MBgddr3 6600GT that might turn the tide a little bit, but a 6800GT or ultra is still probably the way to go. Just because they are 256bit. price on the MSI there supposed to go for 180-90. model # NX6600GT-TD256E
