Hi!

Please read my story have a laugh and tell me more what to do. :rolleyes:

Today with my friend we were taking what poits do we get at 3dmark03. We said we will test and see who is going to get more points.
My friend has P4 3.0 prescot, 1gb ram, and ATI x700pro he got on default 7.530
and on resolution 1280x1024 4aa, 16af and trilinear 3537.
My comp did 7.850 and 3197. Well he couldn`t beleave that i get more points than he is on defaulth and he said that i am ovecloacking my graphic card.

This was the reason to sart ovecloacking ma gpu and cpu.
Firstly i put my cpu on 5% increasment on board that does everything automaticly. And put my gpu on 550core and 1.15mem and tested evjthing. I was so excited on how my core will be. Wel it came out 8715. I was very hapy. But it was not enough for me :)
Than i put my cpu on 10% increase also automatic on the board i thing it was
on 2.65gz and 1.56V. Than I puted the gpu on 580 and mem on 1.17. I got on defaulth 8.837. I was thrilling wau i was so hapy, and I said to me It is so easy why not go higher. :)

Than i waen to bios and put on 20% increase. I told to me now I am going over 9000. hehehehhehe
Than made save chages and when the comp wated to sart the win it went to crach :) ooo....oooo..
I tuned of my comp. tried to resart to get into bios and it went to crach sooner. Turned of again and waited 1 minute and turned on again it went into bios but before i tried to put oc to normal it crashed.
Than I erased the cmos and turned on and it was everyhing ok.

anybody has any suggestion what to do to get more?

hope u liked the story
and have a nice day

that doesn't really count, what you have to do is bench a CPU on one system, then take out the CPU, slap the other one in and bench the CPU. afterall you are compraringa 6600GT VS a X700 i don't think it's a fair comparision plus the ram timing, the mobo as a factor, you're not comparing CPu at all.

I told him to that this is not a fair compaison, but proble is I have a 6600gt on agp, and he has a x700pro on pci expres, and i do not hink we r going to change the cpu for one test

I know a 6600gt outperfor x700pro on almost every test i have read on the net, i know i made a right decision to upgrade the video card- and selected 6600gt on agp

but anyway i am asking do anybody of u think that the crach was becouse of my power suply. Couse I only have a 300w psu. And as i was ovecloacking video card and cpu all became unstable becouse of lack from psu?

can anyone tell me why do I have on my motherbord only 1.6v for cpu?
