I'm building a system that consists of a GA-G31M-S2L, e2200, 2gb Ballistix 1066 ram and an 8800GTS 640mb videocard and Vista x64.
So I installed all the software and ran 3Dmark06 and received 8000 points in 3dmark 06. I then overclocked the CPU & GPU and ran 3dmark again and received 11,000 points.
Well I was having trouble with the initial install so I formatted and reinstalled everything the same way and ran 3dmark again and received 3000 points. I then overclocked and only got to 5000. What gives? As far as I can remember everything is exactly the same. I tested the ram in Everest and it's running at full speed and clock speeds for the cpu are correct.
I've tried different versions of the video driver with no change in results.
The only thing I did differently was I ran clockgen with an unsupported PLL to overclock but then I turned it off.
I can't for the life of me figure out what happened here. ???
