What the core clock of the matrox g400???

The coreclock of the 'normal' Matrox G400 is 125MHz, the memoryspeed is 150 MHz. G400 MAX has a 150MHz clockspeed and a 200MHz memoryspeed, but I assume you mean the 'normal' version. If you use G200clk try typing "g200clk /1 290". This setting should work (or else go a littlebit lower, like 280). With a PLL-clock of 290 you end up with a coreclock of 145MHz and a memoryspeed of 193MHz. That's almost MAX-speed! If it works that is. It worked with the card I tried it with, so good luck!

Thanx you! An other question. Where can i find the clock of the g200???? (I mean tha clock pannel)

G200CLK is a freeware utility you can use to overclock your G400 card. Go to "WWW.MATROXUSERS.COM", then go to the downloads-section. There you can find it under 'utilities', it's called G200CLK 0.21 beta. If you are new to overclocking or don't know exactly what to do, post it here and I will explain it to you.

That depends. If it is with all features enabled and your using q3testdemo1 for benchmarking, yes, then it is OK.
Well goodluck and have fun, I'm going of to bed, it's 03.30 in the morning here :-O.

I made a mistake. The default memoryspeed of the 'normal' G400 is not 150MHz, but 166MHz. Just thought I should correct it.
