Lindan Posted May 8, 2002 Share Posted May 8, 2002 I bought an Gainward GF2 MX400 64MB AGP There is a tool included allowing to run it at higher speeds. Standard for GPU Clock is 200 MHz. no problem here. What it VERY strange is, that the Memory Speed setting is shown at 135hz. the max setting is at 175. how is this possible? I know that this card should run at much higher memory speed settings?? I have a PII450 with an older ABIT board (BH6) and 256MB Ram. I'm really mystified here. Any input welcome, thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWB Posted May 8, 2002 Share Posted May 8, 2002 Lindan, Its pretty simple actually. Graphic cards run the memory and the chip at different speeds, so what you are seeing is quite normal. Moreover, when overclocking your GPU it is quite common to be able to take the processor and the memory out to different speeds based on the specific qualities of the chips involved.

Lindan Posted May 10, 2002 Author Share Posted May 10, 2002 thanks wwb, but according to all sources I read, it should be no problem to get the memory speed up to 200 with no problems, but I don't even have this as an option. could this be connected to the fact that my agp is only 2x and not 4x or is this something completely different? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWB Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 Probably has something to do with the tool you are using, and how fast it can go depends on the specific chips on your card. Good luck Lindan. WWB 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
