3DMark score and trouble oc'ing 9800
I've been playing around with my new system and ran 3dmark 2001SE. My 1st score was a 15,017, with the radeon 9800 at stock settings. I used rage 3d tweak and upped the core from 378 to 391.5 and memory from 337.5 to 346.5, but the benchmark locks up or I get booted back to the desktop. Is there a reason I can't OC that much? I don't think it is a heat problem cause the case is open, but why else would the card lockup? I also noticed that in Bios my agp aperature size was set to 64mb, so I changed that to 128, which I read is the better setting. I also just loaded the intel INF chipset driver from the p4p800 CD, which I had forgotten to do when I loaded XP. Anyways, I think my score even at stock is kinda low. What do you guys think? BTW, vsync, AA, AF are all disabled.
