    i have the geforce 5700le... unfortunately this card is a big steaming pile of turd when it comes to gaming. theyre not bad but dont expect anything brilliant from the card as it cant really handle much.

    if you want to try and push a little bit more out of the card you should download a tweaking tool like "rivatuner" and overclock the card a little but it doesnt really make much difference.

    heres a link to download rivatuner

    if you wanted some good gaming capability you should have invested in a better card

    The 5700 doesn't support all the options of today's games. Is there any way for you to return the card? There are cards on newegg.com that cost less and kick the crap out of the 5700 (if you bought the 5700 in a store.)

    i know the 5700 isnt a brilliant card but im pretty sure that you wont get anything better than it for less money. the 5700s cost about £30 for a 256mb card... you cant get any decent 6 series cards for that much, you may just be able to scrape a 2nd hand 6200 or something but nothing quite as amazing as your proclaiming there
