i recently bought an ati 9800 pro and wanted to do some overclocking.
when i looked at these forums I saw other peoples clock speeds for the 9800 pro @ 380 core and 360 memory. when i looked at mine the speeds were @ 380 core and 250 memory. whats up with this? plus when i tryed overclocking i only get to about 400 core and 275 memory then i get errors. can any one help plz.
also i used atitool


p4 @3.2
2 gb ddr400
9800pro 256mb

When you say 400/275, one thing to keep in mind is you should leave the core at stock 380 before you try to overclock the memory.

Also I have heard of 9800SEs being sold as Pros, can't remember the story, and by looking here: http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/

9800Pro 380/350 or 380/340
9800SE 325/290

Your clocks look vaguely like the core of a 9800Pro (well all the 9800 series have the R350/R360 anyway so I imagine they all clock up to 380), with the memory of a 9800SE. It sounds to me like whoever sold this "9800pro" cheaped out on the memory.

sounds right to me

i have actually experienced something similar...what brand name is that 9800...? also, could you write any identifying symbols that are on the memory?

thanks for the reply, the brand name is radeon xpert vision. i cant look at the ram at the moment but i think im going to sell it and upgrade to x800, are these good cards?

I use ATI Tool and can get about 410-420 core and 360-370 memory on my 9800 Pro 128mb AGP.

Default 378/338.

No extra fans or cooling, just a plain old Dell Dimension 8300.

Your problem might be the brand, I use the original 9800 Pro.

you dont just use the brand, actually

if you read this before i deleted...nevermind...i'm vervy...very, drunk.
