It goes up quick until it starts finding errors in the 3D rendering as speed and heat increase, then it starts stepping down again. When the card has been idling the memory cools quickly, then warms up again when you restart the find max feature. That's why it went up higher the 2nd time, if...

I've been playing this game for like a month now with core/mem clocks set at 95/235MHz on a 9800 Pro because this game doesn't seem to trigger v0.0.22's 3D detection thingy! :eek: Yes, I underclock the card heavily in windows to save on the environment! :p No point in uselessly burning power...

What counts in the end is not the clockspeed the memory is running at and getting said figure as high as possible, but the actual PERFORMANCE of the video card. If you losen the timings as you call it, the access time for the memory will go up even if you clock it faster and hence increase...

It may be lazy yeah, but it would be useful. ;) OR, at least if the clock adjustment quit screwing with the mem speed when adjusting the core and other way around. It may not be technically possible to completely lock down core/mem speed when fiddling with the other as they seemed to be tied...

Is your 9800 board revision a "true" 9800 (R350), or a 9800 XT marked as a Pro (R360)? Mine's a plain ol R350, and I would be interested in hacking in temp reading somehow but I dunno if there is a LM chip present at all, no matter if it's equipped with a bipolar transistor or not... :)

With the previous version of atitool, I found the spinning cube often jerked when I had antialiasing forced in the control panel. With the current version I get about the same cube-fps even without AA activated as I did in previous version WITH it active! A little weird, but it doesn't seem to...
