Sapphire fireblade 9600XT prob!

[asafsarid]

hey,
I have a new computer with Sapphire radeon 9600XT (fireblade edition) with 2.8ns memory.
the clocks are supposed to be 532/325
and in any program that I opened it told me that it is 325 and 500, something is wrong with the card?

Maybe it just came downclocked for some stupid reason.....have you tried just bumping it up to that 532/650??? Sure it would be a little extra work but whatever.

I was gonna say that maybe you had Overdrive enabled 'cus that would have accounted for the lower core clock when not gaming.....but not the memory, Overdrive only touches the core clock. Make sure Overdrive is disabled before you try anything, it might be a partial solution/culprit here.

what is Overdrive?
and where can I see if it is disable or not!?

Dude i put up the same thread a few weeks back, the thing is it says it " 532 ready" meaning that it can easily be OCed or left at this clock speed with no problem.
