Confused about my K8n motherboard settings>advice< pls

[Rambo]

Well im happy with my comp but i have a k8n motherboard nforce4 on my amd 3200(64 bit) and just tried pcmark again and 3dmark(i got 3250)<is that good?

But what im not sure about is that it said my 3200 was running @2010 mhz??

I havnt fiddled with the ratio selection in bios till no im trying 800mhzx4 since it seemed to add up to 3200 <is this right??

But it goes way up to 11x2000mhz?:p on bios?
people with experience in these baords please help my confusion:cry:

regards RAMBO:salute:

p.s whats better in the end on graphics cards high performance or high quiality settings with out causing a flame war

My 7800 gets 60 fps with all filters maxed on bf2 or 30 with vert sinc on:p
but im gunna try high performance for a bit ,see how that goes.

Your CPU has been "overclocked" by 10mhz :)

An AMD64 3200+ runs at 2.0ghz...that is correct. All mobos by the way, add a little more mhz to the speed. My MSI says 2010.3mhz

Which 3dMark is that 2001? 2005? 2006?

How much ram do you have and what type and is it in dual channel? That score does seem a little low if you did mean 3dMark06.

The 3200 number is a marketing thing AMD came up with so as to compare itself with Intel. In this case the 3200 meens that your AMD processor is equal to a INTEL Pentium running at 3.2 GHz.

No my Board is gigabyte and the graphs card is msi.

Yes it was 3dmark 2006 but i do have alot of software and processes installed:cry: ,but i do clean(reg)(anti-spy) and tweak

yes im back on 2010 mhz >4x800mhz clock ratio really hurt my machines fps in bf2, i was getting 15fps:cry:

finally yes i think its dual channel
its 4x512mg of 3200 series ddrsd ram
but lavalays says its @200(?mhz?)
thought this should be 400??

200x2 = 400
DDR = double data rate.

It is correct.
