Okay, I've heard many different ways to set up the evga 6800 in gentoo. Can anyone sum it all up for me? I'd like to see it all in one place, and to be honest, I have a sneaking suspiciion others do as well. Any contributions are appreciated. Also I've heard a lot about older drives working better. If this is the case, would someone please tell mo how to use them, and email 'em to me at aynjell_starwing@yahoo.com. I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank'ya!
Also, if there are other things I can do to increase my system performance that people know about let me know. When all is said and done, I want to be running doom 3 @ 1280 x 1024 with all settings on high. So, yeah, give me some tips, and tell me how to get my card working right!
And if you have faster drivers than what are available, let me know. 
I want this running super fast!

What would I have to do to get your drivers? I hear your 6111 are better and faster, can you email to me?

| The 6800 is only compatible with 6106, 6111, and 6629. Portage should automatically grab 6111 for you. If not, you need to |
