ive seen guys getting 650/1400 in an oc on an x1950rpo................why does the stock settings in riva read 573/688 ? 688-1400 seems like an awful big jump to me, is mem displayed differently in riva?

I think it may be displayed in the 3D tab, there are different tabs in some Rivatuner versions, you may be looking in the 2D one.

It is displaying the current actual Mhz of whatever it is doing now.
RAM MHz is DDR (Double Data Rate) So the actual MHz is half of what it says.
Core is probably on 2D or the jump between frequencies is high... when you are looking at in Riva, load up ATi or another 3D and it should go back up to whatever you set the OC to.

i havent oc yet cuz im not sure what to set it to in riva, ati says 573/1377............when you say the actual mhz is half of what it says you mean double correct? cuz twice 688 is 1376 which is pretty dam close, so if i wanted say 625/1400 id actually be setting it to 625/700 in riva right?
