I finally got my nice new 8RDA3+ and Barton 2500+ setup put together, and I'm having some performance problems with it. When I had this graphics card on my 1800+/Chaintech mobo, I was getting around 9500 3Dmark '01, but in the new better and faster system, I'm only getting about 7500!

I have all the same drivers setup and the same configuration on the new computer, so I'm guessing my BIOS is running it in safety mode or something. Problem is, everything in the BIOS just says DEFAULT, and I can't tell what the default for that card is to make any sensible changes.

Anyone know what kind of clocks and voltages this card is intended to run, and what sort of specs for a typical overclocking setup? Or where to look for more specific detailed information on this exact item?

Oh well,

finally got it working. Nvidia-NForce-GeForce...oops too many of the same sounding things and not wanting to install excess junk I left out something important! It's much better with the Nforce motherboard drivers installed, 3dmark '01 now at 10,640.
