hi guys
i have had my 1700xp for some time now, but i just received my Corsair XMS 3200 Twinx DDR yesterday and i need some help..
i have managed to get my 3dmark score to nealry 18k, im about 400 points off and im ineed of a few pointers, as i think im doing something wrong..
my cpu is currently set to 204x11 (2254Mhz) with aggressive settings to the cpu, i have the memory set to cas 2 2-2-5 and my agp ap set to 512... my cpu voltage is set to 1.75v i think.. my idle temp is about 42C or so, it goes near to 46C - 48C when under stress i think...
now when i try going any higher than 207fsb, the pc boots, goes through a few tests and then a black screen and then nothing at all. only a reset will bring this beast back to life..
my 9700 pro, stucks when it comes to overclocking, as it will only go up to 373/335 and anything more, crashes or hangs 3dmark 2001se, which really annoys me..
is there anything more i can try? i have tried setting it too 11.5 x 200 and im getting slightly lower scores than what im getting now.. the most i have gotten from the cpu i think is just under 2400Mhz (something like 11.5 x 204 or something near to that).. i want to break this 18k barrer!! please help someone!!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif" border="0">
another thing, my 'Environment Bump Mapping' seems to only be going at 150fps.. shouldnt it be higher than this?
Addiction : also memory voltage is up to 2.9volts, my agp voltage is at 1.6v, but the agp speed is set to auto. i have slightly older drivers for the graphics card installed and also i only have directx 8.1 installed as both the newer drivers and directx 9 seems to slow it down a bit... agp is set 8x and i have got fast writes enabled in the smartgart tab of the graphics card drivers. Also my north bridge heat sink (standard by the way) seems cool, (i can put my figures on it when its been on for 6 hours straight) and also my memory is also cool, no tempurature coming off of there either..
