ati x1900xt and athlon 64 xp+3400 clawhammer socket 754

in madonion,, i am getting 26,000 ,,that is 2001.

my x1800gto is getting 24,000

seems like the x1900xt should do better,,, am i wrong,,,??

[_dangtx_]

try 05-06. 01 is too cpu dependent :")

Looks good I was getting 8500ish with 7900gt and a s754 3700claw. But 7900gt lasted 3 days RMA'd and now have a hold over card (see whats out there next year) x800xl that gets 5200ish. How do u like u'r 1900xt generally, is it a heater?

i like the card so far,,, tell you one thing, its HEAVY... it has two screw holes that you bolt it down in the pci slots..

i bought it because it was $400, and basically a xtx , just underclocked a bit... the newer cat 6.6 drivers increased the speed some.

as for heat, not sure about that,... when i start my computer,,you can hear the fan humming for about 5seconds, and then it slows down,..... i can,t hear it after that..i ran madoinion 2005,,, and it was very quiet...

it was a tough decision,,,,, the 7900gt was making it tough.. i was looking at a xfx 7900gt extreme....

i have always had good luck with ati cards,,,, going to use my x1800gto later,,,probably going amd am2 x2,,,,soon...intel processors are sort of cheap,,maybe i will update that computer....i will always have one intel and one amd rig in my house. i have a intel rig, intel dual core notebook,,and 2 amd rigs at the moment.

the madonion 2005 score of 9360 was without using the ati safe overclocking in the advanced part..my try that tonight..

card ran 57c surfing,,,66c during madion 2005
