600e help

[keithq]

I hope this is the right place to post this but.... I just threw in a 600e slot1 cpu into my be6 ver 1.1 motherboard and have it o\c to 673 and (744 at times), I had a p3 450 o\c to 504 in before. Running sandra all my benchmarks went up like they should of but when I run the q2 demo I lost frame rates. I used to get close to 100 fps now I get maybe 65fps and I havent change anything but the cpu. Anyone have a idea whats up with that. Thanks Keith

first things first, are you absolutely sure that all of your settings in Q3A are exactly the same as with the PIII 450? That is what I would check first. If all the settings are the same then I'm stumped. Just on a side note, have you flashed your bios to the latest one off abits site? supposidly it supports the 133fsb speed(yeah right) but they did do something that is making the board solid at speeds of 133+. Been running my 550e @ 788 for acouple of days now and it is rock solid. Let it run Q3A demos for about 12 hours and not even a hicup. Take a look at what others are able to get out of their 600e's.
