I have a Gainward GF3 Ti200 Golden Sample on a Soyo Dragon+.

trying to overclock my GF3 Ti200 so i downloaded NVMax. under AGP settings, "Fast-Writes" and "Sideband Addressing" are checked but greyed out. there's also "Via 4x AGP" and "Via Sideband Addressing". Should I enable these?

even though fastwrites are enabled in my m/b bios and in NVMax, when i check in RivaTuner, both Agp Sidebanding and Fastwrites are off and says the reason is because "determined by drivers". I'm running the latest detonator drivers off of nvidia's website. 23.11.


and am i being too conservative on my overclocking? i dont want to fry my video card. right now, i have it set at 240core/501memory.

I'm still new at video card tweaking, but my brother tells me that the GeForce Tweak Utility (GTU) at Guru3D is a good tool (instead of NVMax). You can also download better drivers from them too.
