The motherboard/CPU change is not an option at this time. I fitted the current ones myself, so that isn't the problem. I just don't need that degree of upgrade for the type of computing I do. But I think I will consider changing to a MX 400, (another 25fps in the Aquarium sounds attractive), I've just checked the prices at Dabs, they do a generic GeForce2 MX400 64MB AGP RP for £33 + vat, (but are out of stock at the moment) so I will look around for a few days.

I'd still like to hear that there's someone else out there that can see and appreciate the CalcNormals ON improvement!

Thanks for the comments, always nice to hear another view on these matters.
