Video Tweaking

[Alfred Kaufmann]

SiSoft recommends caching your video ram but is there a point to
caching the video ram? If you have video ram that is much faster than
your system ram, I don't see the point. I ran 3DMark05 on my Radeon
9700 Pro card with the video ram caching turned on and I got a result
of 2089. With the video ram caching turned off I got a result of
2243 and not only that but it looks like my cpu run about 5C cooler.

most of the tweaks that sisoft sandra advises are bollocks
including video ram caching - which is a throw back to the early days of PCs
when it did help. uninstall sisoft and reclaim the hdd space - thats a real
tweak.
