Having installed 61.67 (tried them once before as they were still in my download file I do not know why I stuck with 53.04) and cleaned the drivers and re installed.
The following is with AA off but preload still enabled.

A curates egg but I think the 53.04 were better..the areas of improvement are where AA would have had more work to doon the previous setting. Nothing comparable with the reports of similar spec systems however.
Now with preload to vid off but preload to sys left on

Obvious improvement but note the rows of 40's seems something is capping stuff some how.
Now with all pre load off..............

So it seems that taking out the sytm pre load has the biggest impact but infact preload in general has no benefit at all.
It suggests to me that there is a speed issue with all my memory...
For the life of me I do not know how to check this.........
I will take it as a given that the 5600 memory is slow but if its slow on mine its slow on others who show better figures.
How about my system memory?
Bus speeds?
Clock speeds?
Multipliers?
Could the mother board be shot or could I have cocked up some bios settings?
Anyway I am going to clean out the 61.67 and re install the 53.04 and run the test again with nothing preload.
More later
