Ran this Bench at stock speeds. But as I was typing this post originally the screen went black and never came back! :(

Im pretty certain its the card thats dead and not the settings on my rig.

My Setup was

Q6600 @ 3950MHz/1.5V
4GB (2x2 1066 Dominator Ram) @ 1068Mhz/2.1V
9800GX2 1024MB @ Stock speeds.
1KW Enermax PSU
Asus Maximus Formula (602 rev)

Now back to my humble GTX until I can sus out what happened to my new toy.

Just got bored and had a play - what happens when you run the top listed resolution - 2560x2048?

Does it actually run at that res and scale down on the monitor or does it run at the reduced res of the monitor?

Only asking as i tried it with High DX9 settings on my 24" hyundai and got an average of 35.07fps which seems far too good for that res. :confused:

I'm pretty happy with a 2900 at that score but what the hell is up with that gpu core clock? I just noticed and every different program I just tried shows different clocks on the gpu, most around the 600 mark and atitool said it was around 700 when I started it up :I

It doesn't seem to want to overclock with any program and sometimes crashes when I try but I'm not sure if that's the speed it's even running at, bleh, only bought it cheapo second hand so I can't be bothered to take it back from where I bought it and it runs crysis fine at medium/low which still looks amazing so I'm not too bothered but it would be good to find out what's wrong

Well so far my replacement 9800gx2 is hold up :)

Not too bad. My 8800GTX did 34FPS and this one can do 61FPS, so Im looking at a 80% improvement with the 9800gx2.

I tried OC'ing but it gave no real gain in performance. I would imagine my CPUs speed is probably limiting the score now.
