They're not impossible, but you'd either need SERIOUS clocks, 325/325 or the 4403 drivers are giving them a pretty large helping hand. I'm not positive atm, but I'll find out and report back. Its weird though because they're doubling my lobbies...
Something to remember though is that number 3 is from 2 years ago or so, and these 2 are both really new. Hopefully someone will come forward and put their name/clocks on these soon.

edit: ran with the 4403 drivers and didn't get a huge improvement. Hopefully they've just got a very strong card. Or they flashed a mx400 bios on a geforce2gts or geforce 2 ti or something.

heres a shot of my highest against theirs. It should be possible with nice strong clocks, but who knows.. I'd like to get a peltier on my card but I don't have the resources or the time atm :(

Nah, he just can't get 2x your score in three tests and 1/2 score in others. It's just unbelievable proportion...

I dont see how a geforce2mx can get more than 5k anyway. I get just over 3k with mine at like 200/200 clocks. youd need over 300/300 for 5k

Nope, you're wrong. Of course it does depend on the system and drivers, but I can get just over 4k with mine at stock clocks on the card. Breaking 5k requires about 263/263.

I know I said 4k, but that was on my other benching harddrive. This is my 24/7 one, so its rather bogged down with trash. If you guys don't belive me I can try and hook the other one up, because I have scores saved on it.

That just doesn't seem right if I get a measly 3300pts at 230/360...

gf2mx boards come with:

128-bit sdr-sdram

or

64-bit ddr-sdram .

sdr-sdram gf2mx 200/200 should do same as a
ddr-sdram gf2mx 200/400 (400 effective) .

The card I'm using is equiped with 32megs of sdram.

I was going to say that I would tell you guys all the settings and stuff I have while benching, and I can try still, but one of the godd*mn hooks on my ic7 popped off, so I'm on my fathers nf7 setup. So I'm rather bummed about that, because its a big pita to get that northbridge cooler back on with the sp94 in the way.:mad:

Geforce, Stock speeds for an mx400 are 200/175 I believe.

In my defense, there are a couple things which are allowing me to score higher then you guys. First off, I have found that running core and memory in sync is pretty beneficial. Second, I'm benching with an LOD bias of 15, as it gives the best results. Third, try setting your prerender limit to 2, it gives the best results. I bench and game with a pci textures limit of 0mb I'm pretty sure this gives the best results, but I havn't played around with it much. Other then the things listed above the only thing I'm doing that you guys aren't is pushing the clocks :p:
However if you choose to believe that I'm full of it, thats your descision and I will understand.:D
