Something not quite right to me, but it shows my ATI card has having two diff latencies, one for the VGA and one for the display controller.

 

Wonder what other peeps think of this

Waitor... there's a BUG in my soup!!!!!

 

Remember that ATI cards have TWO seperate controllers... Primary/Secondary. This shows me the bios is only setting the PRIMARY correctly... Im on 6/19... OH OH!!!!! My Primary bus latemcy is 255, my secondary is 32!!!!

 

Not an issue for me, but some with dual monitors could have issues they never realized were even on the list. Spread the word.

 

Nice little tool, good find!!

hmmm I checked this as well and mine came up as 255/32 however I set the agp latency in the bios to 128. Is there something I am missing?

 

Anyone found any increased scores, mainly with the writes on the SIL controller from raising the latency on that?

Guys... the tool is for setting the devices's latencies, not the boards'...

 

But for me it helps big time with my sounddrops...! :D

 

Great, the latency of the audigy was only set to 32clk, I set it to 128 and now no drops in Far Cry!!! Great. I additionally upped the SB's latency for pci bus to 64 now to allow the bus a lil more time.

 

Great, I am gaming Far Cry at 260x12 :D

I don't think if you cut away some latency from the vid card... you'd make it very unhappy!

 

That's only latencies of the devices, not the buses!!!

 

And higher than 255 is not possible.
