Comment: Im not sure what is going on but whenever I overclock my 6800gs agp and start 3dmark05 to test it would be faster than normal until the screen quickly flashes and performance goes south. Watching riva-tuner it appears the core goes back to stock when it flashes, memory stays the same, and performance is worse than if I had never overclocked at all. Im thinking this is a driver issue but am not sure. As for overheating the card never goes above 60C in this time frame. Any ideas?

Reply: Hey thanks for replying,
Well I have tried those drivers and other but the result is the same and coolbits is installed. Im pretty much giving up now and may try flashing the core to 400 mhz so it wont be able to go back down to anything. Im getting a laptop for college soon anyway, if Dell would just fix their delay problems. Thx
