Radeon 8500 reporting 350Mhz RamDac ?

[BigDog]

Just bought and loaded the Radeon 8500 on Win2K
Drivers (5.13.01.3276)reporting RamDac of only 350Mhz ... ?
Is something wrong with the drivers or the card ... Should be 400Mhz.
Does anyone else have this anomaly, or should I be using the (5.13.01.3286) drivers ?

Thanks in Advance!

Its a known issue, Windows is incorrectly reporting the RAMDAC speed. They are actually 400mhz RAMDAC's, your card is fine.

Yes, I'm using the 3286's with my 64DDR VIVO currently.....I'm waiting for the Gigabyte Maya VIVO before I consider jumping on the 8500 series cards, and my current Radeon is purring right along, and I need my video-in
