Not seeing overclocking results on Ti200

[djmr2]

Hey guys..

just got a Hercules GF3-Ti200 because it was the cheapest one and most easily found here...

have it overclocked at 220/490 but i don't see the huge FPS jump like some of the reviews done..

is it my CPU that's limiting my System?

My Setup..
Tbird 850 @ 981
Abit KT7A
256 PC133 Micron Ram
Hercules GF3-Ti200
Windows Xp
Detonator 23.11 and all the others are pretty much the same..

in Quake 3 i'm getting around 105 fps at 1024x768 HQ at stock speeds and when overclocked i see like maybe 3-5FPS difference...

i did notice when i dropped my cpu speed down, the FPS dropped as well... so.. is it my CPU that's limiting me in Q3?

i'm also getting around 5500 on 3DMark2001

thanks

5500 3dmarks isn't too bad for that setup. On my secondary system I have a 750 tbird (7.5x100) and a visiontek GF3 ti200 @ 230/450 and getting like 4800 3dmarks. I'd say it's your CPU limiting your performance. I get around 7850 3dmarks on my main system that's similar but with a 1.333ghz tbird @ 1.5 (10x150).
