what video card is better for gaming

[an0nym0us1]

I had mine at 3.6GHz, but it just wasn't 100% stable so I turned it back to 3.35GHz. BTW 400FSB with 8x multiplier and 1:1 ratio. with a 1.25V Vcore.

um 400x8 = 3200mhz not 3350, if you need help getting your rig 24/7 stable at 3.6 let me know i can surely help you out. do you have a G0 or B3 stepping proc?

Sorry my bad, I am now running it at 3.2GHz as I wanted to keep a 1:1 ratio and my memory couldn't keep up. But I'm always willing to learn, I have a G0 stepping.

Sorry to dissapoint you Cryman, but there's no way in hell that you'll be able to max out Crysis and get a decent frame rate.

You have to be joking. My kid is averaging 25 fps with custom medium to high settings on an Asus 7900GS 256MB, Athlon 64 3200+ and 2GB PC3200 memory. No overclocking.

well will 350 x9 work without touching the vcore,ive never overclocked anything before.

so with a 8800gts , Q6600 @3.2 and 4Gb 800mhz ram what will i be able to get on crysis

 

[Atomic Rooster]

I think your setup at stock speeds will handle Crysis just fine.

ok, ill tell u how my OC turns out when i build my pc in the next couple of weeks

 

[Atomic Rooster]

I would suggest running everything at default settings to see how it goes. Then, if it's not running how you like it, try overclocking it some.

 

[Bobert93]

yep i will thank u

 

[Bobert93]

and because i have pc6400- 800MHz ram does that mean the maximum FSB can be 400mhz
sorry for double post

 

[Atomic Rooster]

Nah. It can be pushed past 400MHz using the right dividers to keep the memory running at spec. I can't tell you how though, I'm not familiar with all the memory/clock settings and how to manually set them while overclocking. That sounds like a great topic for another thread once your computer is up and running.
