Any help/tips on tweaking it to get the most out of it?

I've got a AGP 6800GS that I've turned in to a GT. That's all the magic I know how to perform. If you've got an AGP slot GS it's identical to the GT only with some of its pipes disabled. There's a piece of freeware around that'll let you turn on the pipes (and do some overclocking if you're so inclined). I'm too much of a wuss to try the overclocking but the unlocked pipes work just fine on my card (hit or miss for some).

Wow you have the balls to unlock pipes but not overclock? Unlocking pipes is more risky than an overclock imo. Overclocking a GPU is one of the simplest things a user can do. No voltage tweaks, fsb and ram equasions etc. All you need to watch for are artifacts(graphic glitches) in game. A GPU will artifact long before it overheats. Most new chips have a temp probe in them anyway.
