Thanks for the info's
If you did not have riva tuner installed then would the card automatically
select the faster/slower clock speeds when required also with RT installed
will the card still auto select the correct core speed when necessary.

ypur agp setting won`t affect the core speed. It`s likely the quadro

bios
makes it run slower. your o/c speed will depwnd on wether you replace

the
stock hsf with better equipment. you could add a heatpipe if you have

space
in the case for one, then you could really get high core and mem speeds.

All the info I read about my vid card says it has a core clock speed

of
475Mhz but RivaTuner is telling me I currently have a speed of

300Mhz.
Is
the 475Mhz figure a maximum quoted or should it be a normal speed.
Could I be getting a reduced speed because Im at AGP 4x or could it

be
because I have softQuadro'd it to a QuadroFX1100
Anyone got any idea on a reasonable overclock speed I want to be

aiming
for.
Thanks.

Your card has 2 speeds, 300 is the 2d speed, 475 is the 3d speed. The
5700, 5900 and 5950 run at 300 for 2d work, and only speed up to the

higher
speed when doing 3d-this keeps the fan(s) at low speed until needed.
In Rivatuner on the "Overclocking" tab look next to the "Enable

driver-level
hardware overclocking", there is a "drop-down" box, see if it is "says"
"standard 2d", click on the arrow and you should see "performance(3d) as a
second choice-select that and your 475 should show up.
