I figured out why my comp was freezing, it is because I had overclocked my 6600gt. This is such a pickle.... When my 6600gt is overclocked the graphics are amazing and runs smoothy, but I expierence alot of freezing and can tell that it is really working my comp when overclocked. When I set my clock freqencies the way they came, the graphics look alright and don't run as smoothy but I don't expierence any lockups or lagging. What is it that is causing my CPU usage to be so high after overclocking? I would really like to have it overclocked while not having and lockups/freezes. Could it be my PSU, since dell is only equipped with a 250 watt, I believe my card requires more watts.
