Again me

I have
Asus A9550/td 128Mb
Gigabyte GA7vax 8x/XP 1700+/512Mb
default 250/200 (aquamark3 #12724)
OCloced to 420/245 (aquamark3 #17765)
Cooled by factory fan.

I am in doubt about this card (my other PC is Asus A7V8X/XP 2000+/512Mb/Radeon 9100 64Mb)
And its aquamark3 score is a lot better than default settings on 9550

How can I be shure wherther this is 64bit or 128bit card
So I can find new bios.

THKS :cool:

P.S. See the other thread about Q on (R9100)
 
Download ATITOOLS from this site u
can see all the info about ur card. :)
 
Yes but

Ati tool only tels me the following

Detected GPU Chip: RV350 (4153),
4 Pipelines,
128 MB

420.19 / 237.94

And the question was 64bit or 128bit
 
Thanks

I saw info on asus.com but was suprised
beceause this card can be OC to 420/250
but it still have weak results in Aquamark3
~17770 (core 420 mem 238)

Nothing else is there
This is 64bit card

Thanks

:eek: That is one serious Overclock! 250->420...Wont an overclock like that damage the core???

By factory fan you mean stock fan right?
 
I'm doing fine with 440MHz on the core from the default 250MHz.. :D:D
 
Funny thing, is that I think my card is a 9550 too (with a 9600 bios), and I can reach 475 on the core with stock cooling. Unfortunately my ram can only do 220.

You all kick my cards @$$... I can only top 400 / 290 with Zalman Heatpipe and flashed with Sapphire 9600 Pro Bios 398/230. WTF? :mad: :eek:

I don't understand how you are getting such high core speeds? I'd say everyone here can do atleast 420. I can't get passed 400. Not sure why my memory overclocks so high it's Hynix 4.0. You'ed think it would be a poor performer as well. :confused:

I wish I could do 290 with my ram. I'll trade ya some core speed for ram ;)

I'll second that again.. :D
 
I will cool it some more but first i have to flash it with 9600 bios. And I need to find bios for it
Should I use 9600 or 9600se
128bit / 64bit
