Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

yeah that would be adequate and if AMD software has automatic overclocking option, do it that way. Happy gaming dude!!! play call of duty modern warfare, one of the most ultimate games of all time.

I have XFX GeForce 8400GS 512mb card. The memory clock is only 266, shader clock is only 918mhz and bandwidth is only 4.3gb/s
is my card faulty. please help

*i35.tinypic.com/246pg7k.gif

but on websites it shows

CHIPSET - nVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS GPU
450MHz Core Clock Speed
1200MHz Shader Clock Speed
3.6 billion/sec. Texture Fill Rate
MEMORY - 512MB 64-bit, GDDR2 Memory
800MHz Memory Clock
6.4GB/sec Memory Bandwidth

:confused:

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

Memory clock should have been 400Mhz. Have you underclocked your card anytime?

i enabled ati overdrive & used the AUTOTUNE feature in CCC. It set my gpu clock at 665mhz & my memory clock at 1038mhz. These settings passed the custom clock test. The card runs at 50C-51C idle. But in the current values section the gpu clock shows as 500mhz & memory clock as 993mhz, these values are not static, they keep fluctuating between 500mhz-665mhz & 993mhz-1038mhz but usually stays at 50
& 993mhz. Is this normal? Is my card overclocked?

u wana check that ur card is overclocked or not ??? use the "TECHPOWERUP GPU"

download it from" www.techpowerup.com "

ok ,, then see close ur CCC then again start and see the clock values first !!

ok so gpu-z reports the gpu clock at 625mhz & memory clock at 993mhz in the graphics card panel...in the sensors panel of GPU-Z it reports the gpu core clock at 500mhz & gpu memory clock at 990.6mhz..but this also keeps fluctuating & after some moment it reports as 665mhz & 1038mhz...stays that way for 1-3 secs & then reverts back to 500 & 990.6mhz.

In "techpowerupGPU" the "GPUCLOCK" should show the 665/1038 anytime , dont see sensors

See only the GPU clock only in the "techpowergpu"

then also use the game like "crysis & farcry2" to check the FPS with the same settings before overclock and after overclock . the FPS should improve on the overclock !

Try getting it replaced, and GIVE THAT guy a scolding, sometimes, out of fear, they mite give u a 8500GT to keep to quiet from further complaining.

how did you overclock your card..?
BTW, i set my clock settings to default in CCC..then used the autotune feature again..it set my clocks to 665 & 1038mhz like earlier..i tested the custom clock settings & accepted them..now gpu-z shows my clock speeds as 665 & 1038mhz..

- *www.flickr.com/photos/8985270@N05/3083627717/

but in the CCC, the current settings still fluctuates between 500-665mhz & 993-1038mhz.. can anyone explain why this is happening?

Also what does the sensors panel in GPU-Z show?

think u r little bit confused , see the GPU shows that ur card is OCed , but the immediate opening of the ccc will the current clock settings " that is 665/1038 " then it shows the allocated to the chipset default clock is 500 , that is minimum (625/993 is not minimum u can underclock to 500 of mnimum ok ) the only thing of GFX clock speed chipset of ATI HD 4850 is 625 ,, its ok

ok..so is my card OC'ed then? BTW, how did you OC your card?

Graphic cards(also CPUs) tend to underclock themselves if they reach or become close to the critical temperature, open the case and feel the card, if it seems excessively hot then you might need to replace it, use this tool to check;*www.guru3d.com/rivatuner/, GPU-Z might report faulty values.

P.S-You may want to install the latest drivers for your card. Since GPU-Z reports the values from drivers a corrupt driver file might also cause this.

Has anyone played Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow on any nVidia 8,9 series GFx card? As I started playing this old classic, I saw a bug with the lighting models, the projected lights were not falling on the ground and the ground always remained dark, I could see the light sources but could'nt see the light falling on the ground. The problem disappears when I use my X1900XTX card, also its not there with Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, any clue here?

The card without using oc from overdrive is not oc'ed(i.e. by default a standard version is not oc'ed).What happens is that graphic card operates in two modes , the 2-d mode(like applications like word, excel,watching movies ) and the 3d mode(for gaming and 3d stuff like benchmarks).When it is running in 2-d mode it dynamically lowers its core speed to 500Mhz, so as to use less power and in 3-d mode powers itself to the standard clocks of 625Mhz(memory clocks do not change).

I understand the working stuff dude, but he needs to know that while starting the CCC the GPU clock shows "665/1038=>OCed then again it comes to the normal mode of the clock 500/993"

" he is guessing that its fluctuating "

The normal clock mode "2D" which [uchiha_madara] tells is 500/993 is normal all the time .
The OCed mode that is real GPU mode for applications and games "3D"

Now u got it buddy @767hsm.221bx

wow "uchiha_madara" really explains good

"2D & 3D" 2D===>we say it as a normal clock mode

3D====>we say it as OCed clock mode

thanks for the info dude.........................................................;)
