I would like your suggestions

[Cryshal]

My new EVGA Geforce 6800GS AGP is supposed to have 350 core clock speed and 1000 memory clock speed. When I installed it, it only had 200 core clock and 500 memory clock. I used it that way for a week, and then my brother did some 3DMark 05 tests and tried to increase the speeds to the advertised speeds. We could only get to 300 core clock and 750 memory clock without artifacts. Something is wrong. I'm using the 82.12 driver because it was recommended on in this forum. I haven't overclocked.

Can anyone give me any suggestions?

My computer specs:
Windows XP
Pentium 4 2.40GHz (2 cpu's)
1 GB memory
using DirectX 9.0C
I'm using the most recent BIOS driver

make sure you're looking at the "3D Performance" clock speeds, not the 2D, clock-lowered ones.

If it doesn't run at advertised speeds return it.

I'm not familiar with that. I will need to research. I did post in the eVGA forum. Perhaps someone there will point me to needed information.

I can't see the 3D clock speeds. There isn't a way to choose that in my Nvidia settings.
