Nope, the label is a 3200 all over my comp. DxDiag, system and all that stuff...it always is read as a 3200 lol thanks

did u tweak something to make it recog ur cpu as 3200? cuz i thought ur cpu has a Label that doesn&#39;t change no matter wat speed ur in. like mine. it says p4 2.4c when it&#39;s running at 3.2.

nope, I have a 2500 as well and in Aida32 it recognizes it automatically as how fast it is compared to, ie 2800 or 3200
no tweaking, it&#39;s just automatic
maybe it only changes w/ AMD processors not intel? [/b][/quote]
yea. prob. in cpu-z, mine says 2.4c, but it&#39;s running at 3.2. btw, i&#39;m getting another 9600 soon. and i don&#39;t have to spend a penny. i&#39;m doing it not cuz i need it, but i need tv out to work. so i&#39;m just gonna buy a retail package that includes all the adapters and cables. like this one:

how is it? any suggestions?

So, it looks like you finally figured out how to use the aquamark3 ARC. Pretty cool, eh? B)

Wow, 40,000 means 40 average frames per second. You have an excellent system. You should pat yourself on the back for getting it done for so cheap (that&#39;s using your noggin/using the resources available to you).

Keep in mind that Mad Cat&#39;s systemAthlon 64FX51 (which is at least twice as expensive as yours scored only around 46,000 = 46 frames per second). The only factor limiting your score now is your GPU. However, if I were you I would not complain about that...6 frames per second is a marginal increase for the money you spent...

dray_02: there is something up with your video card, and I haven&#39;t been able to figure it out yet. You say that you have a ATi Radeon 9600 XT, right? Well that&#39;s funny because your Aquamark3 ARC link says you don&#39;t.

It says that your core speed is 500, which is equivalent with the 9600 XT, but the memory speed that is reported by the operating system in your Aquamark3 link is 250 (250X2 = 500). By my calculation (and by ATi&#39;s, you don&#39;t have a 9600 XT (unless the clock is reported incorrectly, which I doubt). Do you have Rage3dtweak installed? If so, naviage to the overclocker tab and tell me what it reads as default.

you know what adam, you may be on to something....

i thort the xt was supose to run at 500/500


but according to rage3d tweak v 3.9b the default core and memory clock speeds are 500/250 respectively.....

what is going on????


does that mean i got sold a dud??? it was unopened, packged in a genuwine case, with hl2.... plz tell me tht i didnt get ripped off

[Dray_04]

arggh and accounding to that link you sent me

radeon 9600 series comparison

my memory clock should be on 600&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; WWTF,... thats pretty darn high....

the most i can overclock the memory core on rage3d tweak (without testing to see if it is stable or not) is 324&#33;&#33;&#33;



thats less than the radeon 9600 se
