I have a Leadtek GeForce 2 MX overclocked to 185mhz core / 180mhz memory
(plan to go higher once I get Blue Orb)
On 3Dmark2000 I get (running the default test) 4026
What is a REALLY high score for an MX and what do you get with yours????
:):):):)
BTW, how do you flash the MX BIOS????

The score is meaningless. Just use 3DMark as a stability test and be glad if you can run it without crashing.

your cpu speed does also count within your score also, I am getting 6500 with my geforce 256 ddr overclocked to 160/360

I threw my GeForce2 MX overclocked to 210/210 on my workstation (Celeron 450a). I posted 3832 3DMarks. That is the fastest score posted for that processor speed.

And yes, the coolbits tweak program allows you to max the sliders at 220/230. I've benchmarked each slider setting all the way up to the max setting. I've discovered that anything beyond 205/205 is barely noticable in terms of performance. There is limitations to the memory and core itself, so cranking it up to 220/230 may look impressive, but it barely shows any performance increase over a modest overclock of 205/205.

download NVflash and the dos4gw in the misc file section.

flash the BIOS with the RETAIL bios file. Read all of the directions. It's pretty self explainitory. I think you really want to overclock your card too badly. I understand though I am the same way. Good Luck. Be patient. I don't want you killing your card.

It's a good thing to learn how to do. I like the way the keyboard lights flash while flashing the card.
