I don`t think so, unless you had a Nforce 2 MB and then you would gain just a little. But it wouldn`t hurt to add another stick if 256mb`s is all you have right now.Quote:

my sig is updated and in proper format. ;)
You should try the 9800P driver. It should give you a little boost in performance.Quote:

and the rest is in my sig. no huge record breaker but keep in mind this is a hacked 9500pro. :)
The 9800Pro and 9500 use the exact same driver. I think you mean BIOS. ;) (but that would NOT be a good idea :eek: )Quote:

Thanks lonewolfroger, I didnt think so but I thought it wouldnt hurt to ask. I dont plan on upgrading my motherboard though and I am still getting some more ram. Only having 256mb is killing me:(Quote:

Thats what I thought too. I used the Omega driver that was listed for the hacked BIOS that I used.Quote:

Thats all I got for tonight, gotta work in the morning. Maybe more tomorrow. :D
Hehe your on me today xDUCK, But yes using the 9800P driver gave me better performance and I dont think its the same exact driver. The 9500 and 9700 driver are the same though...Quote:

Buddy, all Radeon cards use the exact same driver... Catalyst drivers... If you go to ATI's website, and choose your video card, you'll see that all Radeons use the same driver.Quote:

I know that all radeons use the catalyst driver. But there are difrent strings of the driver for diffrent video cards. If you take a look at my compare where it says #1 9500 Pro Class in my sig and look at the Driver Name, you will see what string I am using. If you used a 9800P string on a 7500 it wouldnt work!Quote:

Then you have either flashed to a new/hacked BIOS or are using hacked drivers (or both). ;)Quote:

:D I use the same bios as purewire. And my driver isnt hacked, take a look for your self. Here is how it works:Quote:

In the device manager click update driver for your display adapter and that should bring up the hardware update wizard. Hit install from a list and click next. Then click dont search I will choose the driver and click next again. When the box comes up uncheck show compatible hardware. That will bring up a list of driver strings to use. No hacking, just diffrent drivers.
Anyways shouldnt you be working on that barton?:D
Still, BS! BS I say! :D :p It's the same driver. :p Simply a different driver string.Quote:

I'm probably going to be getting another 2500+, this one looks like it hates volts (well, I'm going to pop it into the Prometeia first). Hopefully the next one won't hit an FSB wall, it'd be nice to get another 250FSB chip. :D
Hey it gave me a boost so as long as it works, right?Quote:

Any ways 250fsb would be nice! Im going to try for 2.5ghz tomorrow. I know I can at least get 2.45.
When I get my 2500+, I`m going to beat your OC on air. It seems whenever you hook up your prommie, it springs a leak somewhere.:DQuote:

250FSB with that KT333?! Keep dreaming! :p That would put your PCI/AGP at 50/100. :eek: ROFL! :)Quote:
