Default Video Tweaking

SiSoft recommends caching your video ram but is there a point to
caching the video ram? If you have video ram that is much faster than
your system ram, I don't see the point. I ran 3DMark05 on my Radeon
9700 Pro card with the video ram caching turned on and I got a result
of 2089. With the video ram caching turned off I got a result of
2243 and not only that but it looks like my cpu run about 5C cooler.

most of the tweaks that sisoft sandra advises are ********
including video ram caching - which is a throw back to the early days of PCs
when it did help. uninstall sisoft and reclaim the hdd space - thats a real
tweak.
