Exclamation

the 9200se isnt that bad of a card, i used to have it and i ran HL2 on medium settings 1024*768 no problem

however i do believe the stock clocks were 200core and 200memory so i dunno if my card was different or something

it is, however, pretty useless trying to overclock that card, they didnt do a good job with thermal paste on my card so try putting a dab of arctic silver on it, that might help you a bit

i really wanna know how you get 120fps on the cube w/ 9200. thats wat i have right now but it never goes over 80fps. 290/235 is like the max speed, any higher the whole screen would go crazy w/ artifects.... if you still remember, please teach me!!

ati tools is a great overclocker, but i dont think theres another prog that will find max speeds. i used a combo of both atitools (which absolutely hates 7xxx cards. the only thing i was able to find max of was memory and it freaks out when i click the find max core button) and rage. right now, my speeds are and will remain at a constant 225/207.

considdering its an old card, and stock was 183/183, i guess its ok. i average 25-30 min w/o artifacts. and as a bonus, my 3dmark03 score jumped almost 30 points and another 4-6 fps! ha. 124 3d marks and 18 fps kicks total ass. i have the highest score for my card ^_^

and you think your 9200se is bad....
