Someone just called me out... http://forums.anandtech.com/messagev...&enterthread=y
Looks like I was faking my results after all! Someone should've told me... :rolleyes:
Lmao
Well, just wanted to jump in here and let you guys know that I have successfuly unlocked and overclocked my 6200 AGP. I have a Leadtek A6200 128 TD now running at 375/685 c/8 pipes.
3dmark03 - 5444
3dmark05 - 2314
Oh, and my cpu is a Athlon XP 2600+ and I have 768mb PC2100 DDR.
I'm not sure if it's just my AMD64 system that's propelling my scores, but those scores seem a little low (especially since you killed my clock speeds!). Are you sure you've successfully unlocked the pipes? I have read that some people get lower scores if the pipes are defective. Try testing with the pipes enabled and disabled.Quote:

Here are my complete system specs:
eMachine W2686 c/
FIC AM37 Mainboard (km266 chipset)
Athlon 2600+ (2.13GHz, Thourobred, 266fsb, 256kb cache)
768Mb PC2100 DDR
80Gb Hard Drive (ATA 100)

Leadtek A6200 128 TD @ 375/685 c/8 pipes
Artic-Cooling Arctic Fan 3 TC (80mm case fan)
Pixie 950 19" Monitor
There's little doubt that the pipes are unlocked.
Would you run the same comparison in 3DMark01?
The FM approved drivers kicked the :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: out of my card! LOL! I get ~2500 with the WHQL FM approved drivers in 3dmark05. I hope the reason for this is simply because those old drivers weren't tweaked for the 6200 since it's a relatively newer card.
lol ackbar - i just posted over on anandtech with a pretty lengthy explanation of our cause and backing you up for being legit :) anyways, the FM approved driver sucks major ass with these 6200's, but fret not, news sources say that nvidia is gearing up for a public release of the 75.90's...as they are in the last stage of beta now. When they come out we will kick some major ass :). I'm back in New Jersey finally and now i'm here until next sunday. I won't be able to get that new hsf for my gpu until monday when our mail center is open :( oh well. I wish i had some better timing..lol..i'm jonesing from not having an overclocked computer, instead i'm on a stupid little laptop..lol..oh well, i'm going to bed, have a good night guys. :toast:
Just been tweaking my AGP 6200 128mb with samsung 3.6ns ram. Bit of a strange beast is this card. It hasn't settled in either of my 2 mobos. In my A64 setup 2d is perfect but 3d crashes the windows and reboots. In my sempron A mobo it runs perfect 3d but crap 2d!!
I have hit 2600marks in 3dmark2005 but haven't saved it on the orb. Published the one below .
hopefully working link.
Struggling to get my cpu speed over 440mhz but can get ram upto 670mhz, but cannot have both up high or the coolbits tweak fails the test and will not set the higher speeds.
The 8pipe mod works perfect with this AGP version card which puts the myth about agp cards not modding at all to bed. AGP cards wil mod!! Using riva tuner 5.2
This 6200 blows my R360core 9800se that softmods.

update just done a 2660marks will update shortly
Here is that 2660 score on the orb now.
2660marks in 3dmark2005 with a sempron2200 at 1800mhz
Talk about budget!, the mobo, videocard and cpu cost £130!

any links how to mod ? 10x
3dmark2k1se @ 375/685 c/8 pipes - 10,700Quote:

I think I'm CPU limited in this benchmark.
Thanks for running the test James. You may be right about the cpu limitation. That 900 point increase could have been caused by the speed increases, hard to tell with the cpu holding the card back.Quote:

Did you mean Rivatuner 15.2? I've tried 15.1, 15.2 and 15.3 with the last several drivers up to and including 75.90,....nothing works. My card is an AGP made by PNY However, with only 4 pipelines and 500c / 660m gets 18K in '01. I suppose its an okay card even if it won't soft-mod.Quote:

I would personally get the 6600. The only reason I bought a 6200 is because a local store had them and I didn't want to wait. I probably would have saved a little money with Newegg as well.
I see the egg has non-GT 6600s in AGP format also.
Actually their cheapest 6600 is $109; $18 more. My bad.
yes just get a 6600 and get it over with. It is just a little more money.
Lol i also made mistake buying 6200...20$ and i could have bought 6600 instead :(
gonna try to return it....
Why is it a mistake? I have yet to have seen a single 6600 that can get the GPU clock and memory speeds that AB86 can get. To be honest, I have only seen/heard of a handful of cases where someone couldn't get ridiculous overclocks with the 6200. Since the card is ~$100, $20 is a big deal (20%)! I wouldn't spend an extra $20 on a card I would consider a value card just to get a negligible improvement in performance.Quote:
