Woohoo!!

Just got my 75GXP today. Got this baby running in no time.


T-bird 800@900 (would get into windows at 950, 1.8V)
128MB CAS2 PC133 Crucial
KT7-Raid
2x IBM 75GXP 15GB
3COM 905B 10/100
Leadtek Geforce2 GTS 220/380 (memory starts craping out at 390 )
SB Live
Samsung 12X DVD


Get 96fps in Quake3 at 1024x780x32 everything maxed out (I actually gained 3 fps by fine tuning the bios)
In 3DMark I get 7192


Btw, after installing detonator 3, windows wouldn't load, unless I disable Fast Writes. Anyone else has this?

known problem between det3 driver and AMD system. if you want, go back to 5.22 or 5.32 for now and wait for 6.20.

 

[Warrenton]

For one, fast writes do not have enough performance boost to counteract the performance boost of the det3 drivers. So the det3 without FWs is still faster than 5.x with them

Cool, must be a bice drive to have.

BTW got RC5?

 

[Argo]

Well, after upgrading to det.3 and disabling fast writes, I still got 8fps increase. So obviously there is no point in reverting to 5.32.

 

[Henry Kuo]

so your system is running fine with FW disabled? if so, glad to hear that.

 

[Argo]

Yup.
