Just built my new system (see sig).
Right now I'm getting about 5300 on 3DMark05 .... I think that this is kinda low though, what do you guys think?
Anyways, I am wanting to do some oc'ing in my BIOS, but I'm an oc'ing noob and wanted some advice.
1. I bought the OCZ Plat Rev 2 DDR b/c of it's oc'ing ability, but I can't make heads or tails of exactly what I should change in the BIOS!? What settings should I tweak exactly in order to increase speed?
2. I'm oc'ing my 6800 Ultra via coolbits in windows to 441/1.16. Should I be doing something different?
3. I'm using Auto OC'ing in the BIOS....this the right way to go?
4. Motherboard Monitor says that my CPU is running at:
CPU - 26 C
Case - 20 C
Sensor - 30 C
This can't be right?! Or can it? Even for idle temps....a CPU @ 26 C...damn! And during gaming it only rises a little above 30 C. I'm using a Zalman 7000A-Cu heatsink w/Artic Silver. Is something wrong here?
-Thanks in advance for any input/advice.
