I started out with I believe the 1014 bios that came with the board. I was really (happily) suprised at a 5% auto overclock and a overclock on my FX5900 of 444core and 950 mem. that
I got a patched 3dmark2003 score of 6159!!
So i then tried auto overclocks of 10 and 20%
scores dropped by 300 marks on average also the cpu scores dropped from 721 down into the 600's
Tried the 1016 bios and the 1015
again scores are dramatically lower.
I am running the 53.03 drivers that are not approved by 3dmark
(I need them for Farcry)
In every case my system has been stable with stock cooling.
Its just that if my 3dmark scores go down whats the point?
Can anyone shed some light on this occurence? Is my hi score with the 1014 drivers and 53.03 Nvida an anomaly?and incorrect?
Thanks
