I guess those are te most popular and the best but I was only able to unlock my 16 pipes and 1 vertex shader. I am unable to oc my card even too 326/701!

I just hit test and it will not work, someone told me I need to oc first than unlock... I never heard of that could this be why I am unable to oc?


leadtek 6800(AGP)


Also, everysingle review Ive seen said this is a great OC card. I never saw one without, I only saw a few saying they could not unlock...

I am using foreware lastest drivers and put in omega drivers cause some forums said they were better as well...
 
Maybe the reason your 6800 was a 6800 and not a 6800GT or Ultra is because those extra pixel pipelines and vertex pipelines WEREN'T CAPABLE OF RUNNING AT RATED SPEEDS. So they disabled them to make a 6800 which the remaining pipelines were capable of.
 
Powerstrip doesnt need you to test the oc.

Either way, you can disable the test in rivatunner somewhere.

I wouldnt bother overclocking because without the test feature, you dont know how stable the oc is going to be.

This can result in an un stable oc and could damage the card.

You can always loop 3dmark03/05 tests for about 30 min and scan for artifacts.
 
yea, I am using powerstrip now. I got it up to 350/800 but I see no huge differance. I saw a few artifacts but I am unsure of them. it was in farcry at 1280x1024 settings on medium(recomend spec) I put it on med to test as well. The only things I saw was the bugy was all pixleted black and the ground still moves a little. other than that I don't know what else it could be....
 
have you tried NV hardpage? i think that you could also try redline i am not sure though, if you have a 6800 then i would think it best not to unlock the disabled pipes, they were disabled for a reason for the most part...you know cuz they dont work. in my opinion that would be like taking a celeron and trying to make it a pentium, it just dont work it is called a celeron for a reason.
