Alrighty. Well I replaced my X1800XL 256MB with a X1800XT 512MB. As soon as I re-install Catalyst drivers, ATITool gives me some crap about 2D and 3D clocks needing to be the same.
I wasn't expecting anything to be different...since it's basically the same card just with a higher stock speed and more RAM. The X1800XL didn't have this 2D, 3D crapola.
How do I set 3D clocks and 2D clocks seperately...and how do I know what's 2D and what's 3D? There's only two clocks given; one for GPU and one for memory. There's no mention of 3D or 2D.
I tried installing ATI Tray Tool, just to see if the issue would be resolved. Well it won't even let me mess with the clocks. If I raise them and click Apply, the clocks go back to stock speeds. Then I noticed the message saying overclocking disabled in the same window, and I can't make it go away.
Why are there seperate clocks for 2D and 3D modes anyway? To conserve power?
I'm so clueless.
