I just hope ATI comes out with another mid-range card like the 9500pro in the R400 series!

I'll go check

Used normal for all the settings and checked on all the shadows and stuff.

just thought you could do with some more sober results with all these super-fast ones about!

 

[Wigwam]

ps

okay you got me boys: how does one overclock a sapphire rad9500pro??

 

[Viper96720]

I'm running stock no overclock. But if you want go to 3dchipset.com and flash with the unlocked bios. then you can use a tweaker like rage3dtweak to oc.

 

[cymanator]

Wigwam,you can install Omega drivers. Then you don't have to flash your bios!

 

[Manzelle]

13000 - 3DMark 01

Stock 9500 Pro...XP 2500+ @ 3200+...1GB OCZ PC3200...EPoX 8RDA3+...Catalyst 4.2...

 

[JBT]

Saphire 9500Pro 324core 297 mem

01 - ~14500
03 - ~4400

Both of these scores vary from driver to driver.

The core can go higher but the performance boost isn't worth it. It goes to about 356 or something.
The infinion ram on this thing is voltage limited so 297's as high as it'll go.

 

[Manzelle]

Just overclocked to 315/300 and now have a 3DMark 2001 score of 13953...not bad with stock cooling I suppose...

 

[Manzelle]

One last time...330/300 - 14122...I'm done...

thanks for the input guys!!!.....cat3.7's? these the best for this card or sumthing?

 

[Wigwam]

no no, nothing like that
my system was perfectly stable running them so until i found taskbar icon corruption with fast user switching i had no incentive to upgrade...
the benchies were done before i upgraded to 4.2s and i havent redone them yet [i might do it again this weekend but i am assuming any increases will be small]
