I've got a winnie 3200 at 2.5 with 1 gb pc3500 (2.5-3-3-7), Antec 480 psu and bfg6800gt.
The problem is that my benchmark scores are terrible. I'm only getting like 53k in AM3. I should be in the mid 60k at least with this setup.
For ex., my gfx in AM3 is only like 7350. What's up with that?
I've reinstalled the chipset drivers, vid card drivers (71.21), reformatted and did all of this again too.
I even borrowed my friend's identical working card card to see if it was the video card problem, but the his card gives the same lousy scores on my computer but not his.
The only thing left I could think of was a bad agp slot on the mobo or bad mobo.
However, before tearing the mobo out I wanted to know if there was anyway to make sure your AGP was at 8x and that AGP was fullly enabled.
I'm using the nivida gart driver. My graphics card display shows AGP of 8x, but it just isn't performing like it's at 8x.
As a side note, I noticed my 12v rail was at 11.3
Not sure if maybe that is causing problems for my video card.
Could it be a bad psu. My Antec Neopower is suppose to be more than enough for this setup.
Any comments would be appreciated. I'm going crazy trying to figure out a reason for these terrible scores.
THANKS!
