Gigabyte 9800 Pro 128meg Question

[shakl]

I just bought this card today.

So i rushed home from work, installed it, fired up atitool.

All i can get out of it is around 405/370 :(

Is that normal for this card ?!

I was told it would go alot higher, even with stock cooling.

p4 3.00Ghz
asus p4c800 e mobo
1 gig ram

For stock cooling that looks about right.

Flash it to a XT

Flash it to a XT
and why?
there's no reason for flashing.

and 405 core is ok with stock cooling, try a vga silencer, i think than u can hit xt speed :)

Flash it to a XT

Do it only if you have the R360 core

Yep 405 is pretty nice. Like more peepz here say get better cooling and see what ya can get with more cooling on there :D
