Same thread but different story

I'm using Gecube X300SE HyperMemory 256MB

Stock setting
Core Clock = 325 MHz
Memory Clock = 400MHz (200x2)
Pipeline = 4

Last night i overclock my card to the maximum and refer to the picture
Attached Image
From the picture, shows my clock settings from AtiTool and Rivatuner.

Overclock Settings
Core Clock = 486 MHz
Memory Clock = 1620 MHz (810x2)

I got problem here. This setting score (3dMark01SE and 3DMark03) same as i dont overclock this GC.

For your information, i run with this setting without any single artifact.

I want to ask whether
-My gc has broken pipeline?
-Faulty?
-Or the AtiTool and Rivatuner playing with me? tongue.gif

My rig system as write at the signature

Graphic Card
Gecube X300SE HyperMemory 256MB

Standard Clock
Core = 325MHz
Memory = 200x2 = 400MHz

I used AtiTool 0.25 Beta 10 to find my max core n max mem and here's the result without an errors

Overclock
Core = 499.50MHz
Mem = 516.38x2 = 1032.76MHz

Addtional info
At the gc, there's only an original heatsink(without fan) cover the core chip n no other heatsink placed on my memory..!!

now i placed my rig in the air-conditioned room..!!
0.6A fan blow the air to the gc
I want to ask that

will this overclock settings can cause my gc get harm??
or other effect i will get??

It won't la.. Don't run in full potential for too long lar.. if not after burn..
Try to set the atitool to turn on only if they detects 3d stuff.. So, ur GC don't OC all the time.. Btw, that is ur MAX OCed settings without artifact.. if you remove ur fan or turn off ur room;s air cond... sure got artifact edi coz tempeture risen.. wink.gif

what's the best cooler for my gc core, since my gc only have heatsink (dont have any fan) so that i can clock higher then the default core clock??

wonder if anyone use this card, whats the highest core clock that this card can go with stable and safe?

IMO your card is so low end, it's hardly worth the time and hassle to OC it.

artifacts are not necessarily due to defect, you may have just pushed your card over the limits. smile.gif

i use ATItools myself. what's nice about ATItool is that you can set the utility to detect 3D mode and start OCed mode only when needed. smile.gif my stock speed is 398:486 - OCed speed (when i game) 591:560. biggrin.gif
