Hi all. Just got done building my rig, got a new case, motherboards and my two new 7900 GTO's!

I have everyting set up, but I want to put a spitshine polish on this bad girl!

See my sig for specs.

Whar programs do you guys run to optimize your set up?

Im positive that I should be able to tweak my BIOS, but I dont know where to start! Are there any guides on the net available for my board?

Also, how do i check to see if my new cards are operating in SLI?

Thanks for all the help, both during my planning,a nd my last minute scramble on my cards!
 
Diskeeper (for defragging)

And uhh...that's about all I can think of right now...maybe TuneUp Utilities 2005?
 
Well, I just learned that I had to turn SLI on, and holy jesus did it really kick things up a few notches! Also activated coolbits and am now running 671 core and 701 clock.
Ummmm.... didnt really see any issues that made me think I need to run prime95 or other stress test programs. But Ill run it tonight just to be sure.
 
I heard the GTO's have a memory over-heating problem so try to be carefull with oc'ing the memory on those bad boys. The core however shouldn't be an issue.

What settings are you playing at?
