i just bought an nVidia GeforceFX 5900 by eVGA, 128mb.
i won't be upgrading my geforce3. i'm putting this in my other machine, and i'm lookin for optimizations or tips.

for reference, here's what i have now

Athlon 1.2gHz
1gb sdram 133mHz
Asus GeForce3 Deluxe
WinXP Pro
and here's what i'm moving to at the end of the week:

(4) 2.4gHz Xeons (2 phys, HT on)
1gb pc2100 ddr interleaved
GeforceFX 5900 128
Windows 2003

so i'm looking for multi-proc and 2003 optimizations or conflicts for planetside. Please tell me everything you know: SOE's website is totally useless for these things.

also, does anyone know offhand where the user prefs are stored so i dont have to go back and re-bind everything? or... perhaps i should. i can't seem to turn ground vehicles with mouse anymore, which includes being unable to rotate a lightening's turret, although mag turrets and aircraft work fine still.

well, back to my applet

Tell me if you get any extra PC2100 ddr that i can have. 384 is kinda on the low side.
