    Think I Can Get It Higher?

    i don't know if coolbits works but i havent seen a ti4200 OC'd this far...leads me to believe the clock settings arent taking effect, any way to double check?

    No its not. 250Mhz for the Core and either 500 or 444 is normal for the Ram. That's a massive OC if its sticking. Run 3DMark 03 and it will display your speeds.

    sapasion - 3dmark 2k3 says
    VGA Memory Clock 648.0 MHz
    VGA Core Clock 310.5 MHz

    i don't know why it's stable at this speed, theres no ram sinks, but i do have the side of the case off with a house fan blowing in it...
    you think my cpu/board/ram is bottlenecking it or is the card maxed out with this setup? i'm hoping it will get a little faster with a barton 2500@3200 (200fsb) and a new board that has 8x agp.

    4.5.2.3

    i set it to "best performance" in display properties and aa/af off and verticle sync off...im thinking the scores should be a little higher? i see people with a ti4200 pulling 14k....maybe it's their cpu.

    The 45.23 drop 3DMark scores by ~1K so if you want better 3DMark scores, try the 40.72s.

    That's tremendous then. Is it an Albatron?

    64MB card...maybe it's cause this board only supports agp 4x? lol. maybe it's the board itself, i dunno...the weird thing is if the memory is around 630-635mhz it doesnt get hot, higher than that and it gets so hot you can only hold your finger on it for a second. the back of the GPU is so hot i'm surprised it hasnt melted the PCB or atleast turned it a nice amber color. don't think it will clock much past 310 on the core, wouldnt want to try...that thing is smoking hot!!! wonder if i should put a diff heatsink/fan on it since it has those mounting holes of some type

    icecube - your also pulling 13520 on 3dmark 01...around 3k more than me, why? NO FAIR lol

    I'm getting that mark is cuz of my CPU, I can get a much higher score if I have RAM that can do 200FSB with tighter timings, but still, I really want to get my RAM higher cuz everyone is like getting over 600 on the video RAM except me

    edit: get a Giant II for it, gotta luv that baby!!

    used 2 new drivers, interesting results...

    xp@1800mhz on 150fsb

    detonator 5.1.7.5
    --------------------------
    default clock (250/513) - 9667
    300/594 - 10288
    310/648 - 10521

    detonator 4.0.7.2
    --------------------------

    default - 10607
    300/594 - 11375
    310/648 - 11644


    used rivatuner to OC, it doesnt let you adjust to exact speeds, it sorta rounds up/down so i couldnt get exacly 650mhz on the memory...tried to oc to 660 on mem after installing coolbits but it doesnt even allow over 645... 4072 kicks the new driver in the ***
