i did nearly the same thing... except i got the Nvidia Geforce 8800... it runs fine for me, i would say you might try some of the tweaks offered throughout this forum, other than that, wait until vista and DirectX10 comes out and see if that offers up any changes.

thats all i've got.

best of luck, and dont kill yourself over the sim  :-[

Your computer so far; sounds good. However the dual 6600's are slow, go get a 8800GTS or something.

You can also try tweaks, found here:

Oh, I estimate the 8800GTS is 4 times as fast as DUAL 6600GT's while having MORE features.

You spent 1500 dollars just to get some 6600 videos cards ?  :-?
Couldn't you just spend your money buying a "real" video card with real performance instead ?
Just to say, I agree with what was said before: ou should have spent your money in a 8800, even a single GTS would have brought you more than two 6600....

For kinda buck i would get a bigger bang, like hanging 2 8800's in it.
