vendors website show it is using 266MHz memory (532MHz effective)<br>
which is way below most 8400GS (G98 models) which run at 400MHz<br>
(800MHz effective).<br>

<br>
Unfortunately an 8400GS not only can have different GPUs (G86 vs G98)<br>
but also different frequencies for the core, memory and shaders! I<br>
think you can increase the memory frequency using nvclock and the<br>
coolbits interface but do so at your own risk to damaging the card.<br>
<br>
Looks like you are already taking the correct action and just upgrading.<br>
<br>

<br>Crossing my fingers that the 210 that i just bought will do temp 2x (can that I can tell the diff over bob2x). UPS says card will be here Monday so Ill know then! <br></div></div><br>-- <br>Mitchell<br>
