Title: My Voodoo5500MAC use ONLY ONE CHIP :-( - help-
Post by: Ralf on 28 August 2006, 09:52:22
hi

i have a litle problem
i dont know but i think my voodoo5500MAC use only ONE CHIP (GPU) on 2d(normal) and 3d[V]
and when i set 166mhz or 205mhz results = no Boost - the same score always on quake3 timedemo and 3dmark 2001se

i install voodoo 4500AGP @195mhz and its faster than Voodoo 5500MAC 205mhz [xx(] [:(]
1024 16bits color all detail max
Q3 - timedemo 2 = 55fps (on 4500AGP 195)
Q3 - timedemo 2 = 52fps (on 5500MAC 205) [:0]

3dmark 2001SE - defualt
voodoo 4500AGP @ 195 = 1196 score
voodoo 5500MAC @ 205 = 1280 score

any suggesting Question [?]

Maybe one core freezes on the 5500 because it's a damn high clock speed. ;) Which program to you use to overclock the cards?

EDIT-

secound chip is WOKING !! Very Happy
but ...
i make quick test on Quake3 MAX detals texture and use 32 bit color for all
set in tools - USE SINGLE CHIP
and starts Timedemo 2 - score 37 fps !!!
after than i set Prefrmance (use 2 chips)
Timedemo 2 - score 59 Fps !!! i thin yeah its working Wink

next steps
I install voodoo 4500 and run Q3 on the same sets (32bbp)
Score 38fps !!


Results ??
i dont know - but q3 in 16 bits max detals (no FSAA) working the same fps on voodoo 4500 and 5500 Shocked

but when Sets 32 bits - see magic voodoo 5500 Wink

btw problem is in 3dmark2001SE
dont know but score in 5500 is the same like on 4500

Same problem again :D: CPU limitation. When it comes to that, the SLI can't be faster, only in high resultions and/or 32 Bit.
