flatline = all the settings on memory reading are 0 same with temps


edit

going for 620/780

pieman, is your cpu stock? I got 6000+ on 05 with my e4300 at 3ghz.

No its not in the system shown in me sig, this is the kid's pc. Its got an A64 3200 running at 2.2ghz with generic pc3200 memory @ 2.5-3-3-7-1t running in synch (1:1 with fsb), in a DFI mobo

I'm using rivatuner atm, works very well and less confusing interface (to me anyway). Give that a go.

 

[pieman109]

It appears 625/800 is the max I can get atm. I'm not gonna try and voltmod or anything, I'll settle for those figures, the performance is exceptional considering the cost. I personally think its the GDDR3 memory thats the reason for it meself couled with the zalman cooler and ramsinks keeping eveything nice and cool. From what I've seen here, this card beats an X800XL in certain apps when the 7300gt is overclocked.
Absolute quality piece of kit this.

 

[TALON1973]

hmm.........strange........ i noticed no artifacts at all when running 03 at *** higher levels but when i did an artifact test in ati-tool i got them inside 6 seconds. had to go back to 620/750 before i had no artifacts in tool.

could be an ati/nvidia problems but i dont know anyone else noticed this ??

 

[pieman109]

This interesting, I've just swapped the 7300gt for an x800xl and benched "05" and got 5280 which is lower than the 7300gt. that surprised me to say the least. The 7300gt seems to run the games farcry, fear, C&C3, and quake4 better than the x800xl and considering the x800xl has 16 pipelines as opposed to 8 pipelines of the 7300gt, I reckon it shows that the clocks you can get with 7300gt (especially the memory) really come into play here.

I've also just run "03" with the x800xl and got 10897 which is a lot less than with the 7300gt. Shows just how good this card is.

My 7300GT arrived today. Ordered the DDR2 version but was pleasantly surpised to receive the DDR3 version. Thankyou Overclockers!

 

[Dreadi]

Wow these really are real little bargains... if I could be guaranteed a Galaxy i'd definately go for one!

I wouldn't bother, even if they did guarantee you a DDR3 card like they did, chances are you wont get one anyway....

 

[Sinny]

I found this little article which is pretty nice showoff of the galaxy 7300gt, hope this helps people in choosing if they want it or not, ordered mine last week should be here today or tommorow.

Mistakes happen mate, a lot of people have been receiving DDR3 cards...

 

[rIcK]

does this card support dual DVI ( as in for use on a 2560 x 1600 dell monitor ) ?

 

[Tooks]

My Galaxy 7300GT card has one DVI and one VGA port on the back if that helps?

 

[rIcK]

Nah mate its a special thing called "duel ( dual ? ) link dvi" which is a single DVI port which supports the higher resolutions of the 30" monitors.

cheers anyway tho

 

[Tooks]

Ah, I see! I'll check my manual later!

 

[Tooks]

Just noticed that the Guru3d review linked in post 132 above states on page 2 that it has 1 x dual dvi connector...

 

[rIcK]

cheers for the help, appreciate it

Yeah even when you buy on the word of a member of staff.... i don't even think anyone else hasn't received a galaxy card yet.. and the DDR2 probably come nowhere near in terms of performance
