OK, before I was at 164x10.4=1722 and after alot of tweaking I got to 9000 3dmarks.
Now I'm at 164x11.5=1886 and I set the card to the same settings and I get 9000 3dmarks?
What's up here? Granted the first was after a clean install and all that, but NO change with 164 more MHz on the CPU? Could it be that since the FSB didn't change (it's the max my mem can do) that it's bottlenecking the CPU? Sandra reports me as being faster...
So what do you think it is?
XP-1600 @ 164x11.5 for 1886 MHz
PC2100 @ 164/328 max timings
Gainward GF3 GS @ 245/535 (I know, I must have got a dud...)
And yes, there's noAA, the vsync is off, etc...
Other than the CPU speed nothing has changed. Am I missing something here? One thing to note is that before I was using NVMax and coolbits to OC, now I'm using RivaTuner. Is there some obvious setting or whatever that I'm not seeing?
