Hi,
Ive recently upgraded my old Jetway GeForce FX 5200 card to a nice new ATi Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB (ATi branded) so I can run Doom 3 that little bit better (and be ready for Half Life 2)
Ive downloaded ATiTool 0.0.21 (awesome program by the way) so I can have a play with the clock settings but I was wondering what the optimal speeds would be? Does the CPU make a differance to this also? As I only have an AMD Athlon 2000+ XP, 1 Gig of DDR Ram etc... at the moment (cant afford to upgrade yet)
Would I need to get a better cooling system (like a Zalman heatsink kit) for the card to reach higher clock speeds?
Any help would be great, thanks in advance
