Do I have a bottleneck?

[Saint71]

My new build doesnt seem to perform as well as I expected. I have a 7800 gt and its just not giving the frames I thought it would. I was wondering if I have a bottleneck somwhere in my build that is holding back my video card. Here is my setup.

Asus A8N-SLI Premium
AMD 64 3200-Overclocked to 2.2 Very Stable
eVGA 256-P2-N516 Geforce 7800GT
1 Gig Corsair Value Select
2X 80 Gig Segate SATA Hard Drive
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
Antec True II 550 Watt PS
Lite-On 52x Cdr-Rw Drive


Thanks

what kind of frame rates are you seeing, and what were you expecting? in what applications?

There is no bottleneck. Why are you thinking it should get a certain amount of frames if you've never had it? If you compare it to benchmarks you gotta realize that they are using (generally) 2gb of RAM and one of the top CPU's on the market at that time which will help out drastically.

Only way to truly assess how your card is performing is seeing if your scores match up with people who have similar systems. Make sure you got the latest drivers and crap like that.
