Hello,
I have in my collection few FX cards and two of them has some strange clocks.
First is FX5600XT which reports 124MHz for core and 88MHz for DDR.
Second is 5700, with core clock just 300MHz, memory is ok with 275MHz DDR.
Performance is also low. I've tried to set correct clock of 425MHz for 5700 by RivaTuner and card works just fine... 5700 was tested on W98 and XP, in both cases same low clock. Just GPU-Z shows current clock but it is wrong.
Apart from these clock issues, the cards seem to be fine, rendering 3D without any artifacts
Any idea how these strange clocks happen? Is is some common issue? I have just 2 5600 cards and only one 5700, so for me the problem is quite common.
And is there some easy way to fix, e. g. reflash a bios? I haven't found for FX series...
Thank you very much.
