QUOTE(darude87 @ Aug 21 2008, 03:31 PM) need some help here, i'm using Gecube 3870 x-turbo |||, i oc by using rivatuner, i tried OC to 830 core , but on rivatuner(monitoring) and gpu-z, it only shows as 825, but ati catalyst and rivatuner(overclocking) shows 830 so which 1 should i trust? dats is similar to intel E1ST function... when idling, d speed will decrease to save current... no need to worry...

My 3870 at 850Mhz on CCC, the GPUZ will show 843Mhz, if i'm not mistaken. I think it's common to get lower clock speed on software other than CCC.

AFAIK GeCube X-Turbo doesn't come with the power play. it is just inaccurate reading, that's all This post has been edited by LittleLinnet: Aug 25 2008, 04:13 AM

it's ok thanks for the effort the solution is by renaming a file in system32\futuremark\ but i can only score 8K which means my 8800gts 320mb is more powerful and faster(in benchmarking)
