I was going to upload a very helpful program for you, but it's too large for the forum. Try googling for 'SIW', it's a program that will tell you everything you ever need to know about your system.

Good luck!

Here's the link to the download page for ya.

I'm liking this Windows 7 a lot. And this GTX 480 is a beast, with the power draw and heat to prove it.
