At last a stable system. Could push harder but am expecting a hot summer! Just to compare. I have similar 05 score but with Overclock! Still Before Christmas was 1560 3D-03!!! 4200Ti Could'nt have done it without you guys. I'm happy.
the numbers you see listed below are running it OC'd. And also, I will be honest, i changed alot of settings in rivatuner to performance. So that's about the highest i can get now, but i think i can still go higher since i wasn't recieving any artifacts. I run AGP, i think PCI's score better. Can a high OC damage a card, or is it just the heat that I should worry about. What I mean is, if I can run near 620 core, and temps are reasonable, there will be no damage? Or can a high OC damage a card regardless of temps. Edit: this is an AGP benchmarking topic, for all you pci peeps
3Dmark05 i mostly GPU dependent and with 600/1200 (zalman cooled) its quite easy 05 http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=818405 03 http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=3939355
ok, so your numbers are right. I thought you had it running as your sig said 560/1200. 600/1200 those numbers about right. Mine are about a hundred higher, and I think i ran maybe 610/1206 Edit: were you running with alot of settings put at high performance, i mean turning off alot of extra stuff in rivatuner, to increase performance. Or did you just OC your card with your normal settings?
I set High Performance in the driver, but didnt make any extra tweaks like LOD decrease or mipmap decrease.
if you didn't adjust any of those settings, how the heck did you get those numbers, maybe it's your ram. I'm runnin value corsair with a divider. That's probably our difference, and the fact that I cant run dual channel. I messed with LOD settings and mipmap. I tried to max it all out.
Duno whats up. I really just used the driver setting, maybe the 76.50 are so nice to me :> Btw. my RAM are really stinky, thry dont even go on 200Mhz in dual :/
I've always wondered if you can damage a card by running it too high, say 620/1250? But with no artifacts and decent temps? Is the only way to burn a card up just by temps, or also too high of an OC regardless of temps?
it may... im not sure i know that as long as voltages are good, temps r good, and no artifacts, then there shouldn't be too much of a prob
