Funny Clock Speed on FX5600
Derek wrote:
I can't get this FX5600 to work properly. I've just installed and run Powerstrip and it returned these clock speeds... Memory clock - 100.29 MHz Engine clock - 54.00 MHz IRQ - 16, not shared AGP revision - 3.00 I thought that I should be getting something like 275/300 or so?? It might help explain why the card has been so useless. Is there anything to be done here or is it back to the seller?? Incidentally, increasing the clock speeds just stops the card from working.. Derek If you look at futuremark site then all their benchmarks with FX5600 show these odd clock speeds. I'd also like to know what's the question as the clocks should be a lot higher (memory clock was around 550MHz as I remember, can't remember the core). Mario |

WHAT drivers are you running? the 44.xx drivers have an auuto overclock
feature which will detect safe settings then reset. Also in XP turn OFF all the background CRAP (twirling,bouncing somersault icons and slidy glidy bull****) GET RID of System restore. You will find this makes a HELL of a difference. XP is extremely resource hungry. PAUL "Derek" wrote in message ... I don't think that applies in XP.

It's the card that's the problem. Having tested it on another machine it
still didn't work.. Derek "FEDup" wrote in message s.com... WHAT drivers are you running? the 44.xx drivers have an auuto overclock feature which will detect safe settings then reset.
