Gainward Bliss GeForce 7800 GS+ 512 AGP

I am sure the memory on this core should be running at 1250mhz, but forceware control panel, and the supplied software reads it as running at 650 mhz! The specs are here http://www.gainward.net/products/pro...products_id=48

Could this be the problem? , might be faulty

Edit: How can i update the BIOS without a Floppy Drive ? Thanks

Tryed rivatuner to check your speeds, with the hardware monitor? seems damn right strange its at 650mhz. if your games seem to run fine then maybe its just a software problem in the drivers

Another possibility is that it is reading the actual speed, and that the speed is actually 1300mhz. If your games are still smooth as buttah, then that would be my suspicion.
