Hello all, First post here.
This is my second time overclocking my GPU with Atitool. Last time I used it I seemed remember getting way higher FPS in the 3d view. While reading around on various forums I pulled up Atitool and out of the blue my FPS almost doubled. it went from about 650 to an average of 1200 FPS. I was ecstatic. Though after rebooting my PC I could not duplicate the results. Then just when I would be about to give up, The FPS would shoot back up. When I would shut everything down so could run 3dmark they would be gone again. After many a frustrated moments. I finally realized when ever the FPS was up I had FireFox up in the background.
Is this a common bug? , What kind of results should I expect to get with my setup ?. Is a 3dMark score of 8780 low for my machine ?
THanks for any advise in advance.
Here you can see the what im talking about.
FPS wIth web browser.
FPS on desktop.
