it says that the memory clock speed is 2000GHz, while my ati CCC (catalyst control center) says its only running at 1000GHz



could this possibly be becuz my mobo doesnt support pcie 2.0? or is the CCC readings wrong? or was i ripped off or they forgot to overclock it? should i send it back for a replacement?



thanks a lot, im pretty new to video cards and all|||the ram is 1000ghz. the data rate is 2000ghz. theres nothing wrong with the card.|||Really not a thing could tell yah w/o more information, having the tech specs for the card is all nice and dandy but need running specs to see. However going from 1000 GHZ to 2000 GHZ isn't an overclock issue, yah don't simply double your speed on an OC, maybe boost 5%, 10%, 15% is feeling lucky over initial specs. My guess is likely its in conflict with your Mobo, maybe not supporting pci-e 2.0 or maybe your tester isn't telling properly because isn't designed with that vid card model in mind.



Try some other test methods, theres ATI Tool, theres NTune, and theres a whole bunch of others. First suggestion is make sure its reading the same on a few diff testers, second go to the companies website and read the tech manual..... could also do that probably at ATI's site. 3rd ask for support from the maker of the card.|||Don't worry about it. The specs show this is running just as it was intended and designed. Go have fun with it.



Good luck.
