LeskiL Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 running prime and 3dmark and making sure the system stable is the first thing to do as fightgame said. Also would suggest load the AMD X2 drivers from amd site. You can load the coolnquiet drivers but I wouldnt I would not want the lags before the cpu powers up good.The amd X2 will install pmtimer in boot ini file. Where do i download the driver can't find any on AMD.com... Prime95 has been running torture 4 hours 33mins with no errors, no warnings... gonna run 3dmark05 now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeskiL Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 ok i got the AMD driver now... BTW my CPU was at 40c at top, running Prime95 torture test, using 50% of CPU all the time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

divinemisfire Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 r u running SLI ? ... if not 5760 maybe just about right for 3DMark05 .. u may hit 11000 for SLI. My 7800GT 3dMark05 scores are just 7880 and everything flies on 1900X1200 resolutions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperLee Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 yo, i'd remember building my system and i had the same problem but another important thing u should notice is the power supply, did u supply the power source to the graphic card? thats what i forgot to do and it worked fine when i plug the power source.

snugglealufacus Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 i had somewhat that problem before, i would install XP for the first time on the comp and i would get a BSOD right before the EULA, plus it would take forever to load screens and writing etc. i called newegg and had them ship me a new mobo and this one is great.

rgdiz Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 I've got to ask, when you run a game are you using both processors? Are you sure it's setting affinity to one cpu core? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
