Possible to make a pci card faster?

redsunx · 06-26-2007, 07:34 PM

Well ive been playing with a fairly new system but its pci only, any ways i put a 3d fuzion fx 5500 in it and games run slow, clocked memory and core still a bit slower then wanted so,i figure its the card, since its pci and just wondering if i can make it faster?

You can try to OC it or OC the PCI frequency, but that depends on how good your board and card is.

I have an old board, from 2001 and I OC the PCI frequency using ClockGen to 84MHz, with a little RAM and CPU OC linked to it aswell as they move up synchronously.

um whats a safe frequency?

Differs from board to board. Whatever's fully stable is safe.

Usually it's very hard to increase the frequency and get stability.
