from a previous post ok heres my prob guys. Im using a 6800 evga agp 128mb. I downloaded a bunch of benchmarking programs 3dmark 03 05 2001 aquamark 3 anyways... the problem is this when using aquamark before ocing everything is fine from what i can see i ran 4 tests with it my scores were 49,107 49,057, 48,806, before oc.. then after an oc of 400/800 my first time running was 51000 some.. then after it dropped to 46000 then after when trying to do another run it locks up and my comp reboots.. obviously i thought this was a heat issue but after checking temps my card is a 61 at almost the end of the test... Also my scores stay fine on 3dmark 03 and 05 after oc aswell
as 2001 and 3d05 gets the card all the way up to 72!!! and it runs fine scores stay really close... so im lost and would apperciate any help thanks.. new to forums and comps so be kind thanks

I know someone answered this already sorry.. but it keeps getting wierder... after all that i thought everything was fine but now i ran the valve stress test 7 times and got all similar scores of 102.65 then after ocing i get a score of around 104.52 i know its not much but i know some apps improve more with ocing anyways... after a few more tests my scores are now 86.00 84.89 and such after I OC... and my card sais it will slow down at 127 degrees and the highest it gets when running that test over and over again is 62 so im stumped hard core.. ive oc ati in the past no probs i know they dont use throttling... so whats goin on....... could it be my card is throttling even before it reaches this temp... oc of 400/800 only aquamark has returned lower results after more than 1 test after ocing 3dmark 05 03 2001 all get better and stay almost the same after a few runs with oc settings some help!!!!! 😀
