7900GTO Arrived! But I lost performance?

I haven't noticed any big heat problems on mine so far, any specific utilities/tools I should use to overclock it? This lack of performance is really bumming me out.

7950GT worth the money?

That's another thing, I have a SoundBlaster XFi Xtreme Music on the DFI board, that card won't cause any issue with taking up too much space will it?

Making an Excuse to Upgrade 7800GTX

Well the only problem I have with waiting on an 8800 is that I've just made some big financial commitments (1200$ a month condo, bought a new Mitsubishi Lancer and getting Lasik Eye Surgery) and I was looking to spend in the 3-400$ range but...
