overclocking question for a x1900xt

[hell_on_ice]

Hi guys, long time no post

Just a quickie - just upgraded my pc to a dual core all singing all dancing AMD 64 X2 with all the fancy bits and bobs including a lovely new radeon x1900xt iceq3.

Im running the latest omegas, and i previously used radlinker to overclock my old x800pro.

I installed it this time, and if i click 'enable clock rate change' it shows it as 0mhz for both memory and core..... hmmm i thought, so i installed ATI Tool, and it said the same.

Question is, is this i known issue with the newer x1900xt's, or am i being thick somewhere.

Also, if i enable 'overdrive' in the control panel for the card, it does nothing and the clock rate stays at 499mhz.......

And another thing while you're all here - is there a quick way of finding out exactly what my GFX card is currently clocked at?

It managed to rack up over 5300 marks in 3dMark06, so it must be running at something more than 0mhz

Cheers lads,

Craig

I had the same issue with ATI Tool, you have to grab the latest Beta for it to recognise the card. However I found several games wouldn't load with ATITool in memory, so I used ATITool to find a decent clock, and then just use the Overdrive options in CCC to set it. My Core is up to 675 (HIS card, same as you I believe) but my memory won;t budge from 720 without locking up the PC mid-games.
