removed all drivers
installed the card
put the disk in .installed fine
but its only showing 297 memory clock in mhz
when it should be
- Powered by ATI Radeon X1600 Pro - 500MHz
- 512MB-128bit 4 channel DDR2 memory - 800MHz
gfx card is a x1600 pro
any help would be great thanks

thanks for the replie
but 1 q for you is a x1600 better than a x800
if so why wont this card run over 12 fps in game on low and the x800 will pull over 30 fps
he picked the card to try and better himself not roll back
im just at a lost

Agree, naming convention is confusing...

For me it's good to have OCUK forum guys help out, even over what would seem obvious to the seasoned OC'er, shame about the tease comments though, lets down to forum...

i agree with what you say
