BB, I've run the full tests with my ti4600, while still cleaning out registry entries from my ti4600 and Voodoo 3 3000, I don't think it's neccessary to run the theoretical tests which hold no bearing on score, when my OC is apparently safe. If I had OC'd or even moved the texture and mip map qualities off of "high" I'd consider rerunning the tests fully. Due to this card (for whatever reason) not really liking my 4:6 divider, I'm going to put my pc3200 stick back in, which runs low latencies at DDR400.

Score Update :p
12363. Link in sig. All things the way they were before just :-
300/660 (using coolbits and 40.72s , will install 40.41s tonight and see wht bangs :D)

Anyway, here's my score at 160 with my 4:5 divider. I haven't touched the driver options or OC'd the vga at all yet.

Hey Mark,

Since you have the same motherboard as I do, I find it somewhat "reassuring" that you can't run the 4:6 divider either. At least we have the same problem...
It sounds like it's a BIOS issue to me....My GeForce3 had no problem with the 4:6 divider. I can run 4:5 no problem, with aggressive memory timings...
Also, I cant get my FSB over 141 stable, but I think that's just due to my cpu...

What do you think about the 4:6 issue?

Mark -

One more thing..

I notice that 3Dmark reports insane FSB speeds (I too got the 8750MHz FSB reported).
But now, it doesnt even report my motherboard type, model, or manufacturer, nor does it report a FSB....
Im wondering if it has anything to do with the BIOS that Im running (1010.001 Beta)?

What BIOS are you running for your mobo?

Thanks!

It's the bios that's reporting things incorrectly. I think I'm going to try and flash back to the 1009's (last official bios release) and see how they are for the 9700 pro.

I'm using the 1009 bios aswell, and mine also reports that insane FSB :eek:

Hey Voodoo,
jus curious, i was impressed by ur ti4400 OC , which stepping is it ? A3? A2? and did u do any mods on it? Volt mods? Third Part Fan? Ramsinks Mod? or was it a outta the box oC?
And when are the scores going ta be updated?

I did the same memory voltage mod that Xbitlabs did on they're Ti4400 and added TT ram sinks, I can hit 319/780 its stable but the screen is all messed up, 318/708 is the best I can do with no artifacts.

At stock everything I'm able to hit 318/680

Are you using fixed or variable resistors? You may want to back down on your memory voltage, kinda sounds like you have too much voltage if you can do 780 with artifacts but only 708 without.

And ROM or whoever you are 14700...Wow I would have thought that you would have gotten much more out of that card. I was going to pick one up to make a run at the top score...but I just cant bring myself to buy one. Im gonna wait for the NV30 and be happy with the fact that I have the highest ti4600 score. I hope you eventually get something out of that RADEON LOL....I know a couple hundred points sure would piss me off.

He He..easy now BB. Don't want to get the kid upset and crying again ;)
