Help clocking the MX?

[Fanman]

I've got a Hercules Geforce 2 MX (400) with Hyundai 5.5 ns ram. I haven't been able to get any more than 200/210 out of it. Any suggestions or guides you can point me to?

Have you got a Blue Orb ( or any kind of fan ) on it? A Blue Orb will help it a great deal. My friend had an ASUS GeForce2 MX and con o/c it to 215/218. Keeps up with my ASUS GeForce2 MX 400 ( havent got it running fully yet ) in 3d marks 2001. You should be able to get higher with your clock speeds than your current speeds. Also a case fan blowing somewhere near the card will also help.

I have the same card, I can't get the core past 205 stable, and that's with a fan on the heatsink.......

Older MX card, like the one that I have now, are better overclockers then the newer MX200/400. I have pushed mine to 215/217, and that was the max it would go, before it starts to crash the system. I found that on these MX cards, gettin to a high speed doesn't always get you better performance. Jumpin from a Tbird 850 - Tbird 1G got me somewhere around 30FPS in all my games. But then again could be just that the new system is faster all together. I don't even waste time clocking my MX card now. :cool:
