    Well if you've gotten 10 with it ON, there's surely a problem. 
Usually when my cards are at 10, it's off. I'm finding it's a matter of 
both- a solid CPU to keep the data flowing, as well as a fast card to do 
the rendering.

    Now keep in mind, I was at 30-40 on a dual P2 running at 450mHz. 
(playing UnrealTournament, anyway.)  Getting something similar shouldn't 
be that hard, on your hardware.

    When you change out the motherboard and video, I can't IMAGINE that 
your FPS won't go up.
