So here we are in GPC...
I put it to 270, and ran it again, getting 6236 :confused:

Since this is about the ATi 8500 could I sneak a quick question in? Would you get higher scores with a 8500 128mb rather then a 64 if so by how much?
parksie
Sounds like drivers to me. Try teh older ones you had before...
Gimlin
No, not really. 128MB is largely hype, although it has use in the GF4 Ti cards.
Ok silly me....spot the person running two monitors on it :rolleyes:
Eh? :confused:Quote:

I just restarted and it's now running off just one port, before it was mirroring it on both of the monitors I had (one off the DVI port).
On the laptop now :p
Hehe...that'd make a difference!Quote:

At 270 did it still look funny in Nature?
No it was absolutely fine.
Ok I just ran it again, and got 8102....but with an FSB of 140 :)
At 275?Quote:

Can you take the FSB any higher? Abits kick ass at OC...what RAM do you have? what brand I mean...
Card 270/540.
FSB 140
Memory: Single Crucial PC2100 CAS 2.5 512mb DDR DIMM.
I didn't try taking it higher but it would let me.
You tried raising your voltages, right? ;)Quote:

Here's my Overclocking tutorial on TT

I saw that before.
Not tried doing the voltages yet, it seems stable so far. Downloaded PCMark2002 to test general stability (since I did the FSB).
Yep you neeed to raise voltages to go any higher than 140fsb ;)Quote:

Tell me what your PCMarks are..I better DL that myself...arg
Strange. Do both drive benchmark that bad??
No, the Seagate one does basically the same as yours :eek:
I checked and that IBM one is rated at about 8mb/sec :confused: (And this is on the IBM site as well!)
Anyway........it works so it'll do for now! (TBH, I never really noticed it that much, since the swap was always on the Seagate one)
