Big Grin 9700pro + Aquamark3 . . . woot!

Heh got back to overclocking the AIW 9700 Pro again, this time the A64 too.

clocked the 9700 to 398/344 again, and the A64 to 2210 MHz

and the resulting scores . . .



not too shabby, eh??

Nice!

I really like AquaMark 3. Small and effective. I get 36,085 -- time to overclock a bit more and make the memory timings more aggressive. I'm being too passive with my system.

I think I'll skip Halloween Horror Nights this year and get an X800 XT PE instead so I can hit those scores.

I keed, I keed. Very impressive.

heh, it seems that I can OC my 9700 higher on Aquamark3

well, I think this is the highest score I can get with the cooling I have

graphics card is at 405core/351mem, and CPU is now 2270 MHz
(surprised that the CPU got that high since the AGP bus is at 75.67 MHz at that speed )

any higher on anything crashes or gives artifacts

the new result . . . 46.8

core/mem was at 405/351 like I said, and the cooling is completely stock... the stock ATI heatsink, no ramsinks, shim not removed.

everyday I love this A64 more and more
