I have a qestion which bios shouldi use to get better OC frequency and should i use softmode ( i have 4 pipes ). And why atitool doesnt shows me temp of my grafhic card? And where i see which ram do i use????

that's the max already on your card. it's been overclocked to begin with (9550 speeds should be 250/200x2).

You only have 4 pipes so it doesn't matter. Just use ATITool and use the "unlock" function for overclocking.

You don't get to see your temperature because you don't have a temperature probe on your 9550. I don't think any 9550's have a temp probe.

Look on the card itself for the RAM.. copy down the serial/model number then google it.

i strongly advise not to flash your gecube 9550 anymore because this is already factory flashed with a 9600XT bios... :)

just accept its limitations, we get what we have paid for, right? :)

Asus 9550GE

On the net i can get loads of information on overclocking this one.. though everyone uses a different tool or bios for it.

Question 1: Which types of memory can there be on a Asus 9550GE ( 4.0 or 5.0 Hynix or Samsung? )
Question 2: What is the best tool to overclock it with?
Question 3: Can you do better with flashin the bios tahn loading up a dang program which has to set the settings right all the time?
Question 4: If you do use a bios which one is the best for 4.0 or 5.0 memory.

(9550GE has 128bit momory and a standard 400/250 )

like I said in my guide, every card is different! you'll just have to figure it out yourself.. saying that mine reaches 450/280x2 (example) doesn't mean yours will nor does it say it won't surpass either.

read the guide again, I answered most questions, if there's a question not there, post it in that thread and I'll get to it
