USMC.. OoRah!!
Hello there! I am an owner of a new eVGA 6800GT 256M. :clap: I was wondering when I put in my current rig what the bandwidth bottleneck would be... I'm sure there a couple like the ram and CPU, but any other advice is greatly appreciated! ( I'm considereing upgrading to a A64 3200-3800+... if need be.) My rig...

P4 2.8Ghz Prescott
Intel D685PERL mobo
1024MB DDR333 (PC2700)
GeForceFX 5900XT flashed to a 5900 (475/900)
SB Audigy MP3+
20 and 80GB HD's
420W PSU (forgot the brand, but its rails aren't the best, but still nice.... 12v-12.2, 3.3V- 3.4, 5V- 5.12V.. keeps everything running very stable and cool.... prolly gonna get a new PSU though... prolly at leat an Antec True 480W)

Thanks for the advice guys!
 
you just need some faster ram and better mobo and OC the thing to hell, probably not worth the extra $$ to upgrade to a64
