Is it only the stalker game some you guys are getting more FPS in :confused:

Have any of you guys tested any other games like DIRT or lost planet (DX10) etc ...

^This^ is the HL2 LC Source Test, all setting were maxed in HL2 options, in CCC everything was 'let app decide', AAA was on @ 720p
My Spec: E6600 @ stock, 2GB Geil ULL, 2900XT, Asus P5B.

^This^ is the CSS stress test, same settings.

How do I overclock 3D Clocks with ATi tool when it only shows 2D clocks?

RavenUK · 29 Jul 2007 at 17:04

Go to settings, HD2000 overclocking and enable the switch to 3d clocks when starting ATI tool.

Did you restart ATI tool after applying it.?

Edit, make sure you have ATI automatic clock switching set to not effected.
