I don't have a 6000 series card (yet), but the utility generally does a good job of working with new hardware. ------------------------- Multi-Core Upgrade Guide Do you want a world ranking?

It might be because Cat 10.11 does NOT support the 6000 series. The newer 10.10e does though. ------------------------- Spider: Phenom II 955, Antec Kuhler 920, GA-MA790FX-DS5 (F8g), ASUS 5870/V2, ASUS Xonar D2X pcie, OCZ2N1066SR2GK (4x1gig @800), Antec Truepower New 750, Fractal Design's Arc Midi Case. #2: A64 X2 4200+, ASUS A8V-D, SAPPHIRE AGP 1950PRO
