However no matter what software I use (rivatuna, ntune, atitools...) after I set the clock up and then 1 sec later it just went back to its default value. Is there anyone here expert on Computers can help me? thx
Couple thing I am going to inform you
1. There is no point to OC a 7300GT, you won't see any legitimate improvement, if i am not mistaken it's a 4 pixel shader pipeline and 2 vertax shader design. That means you probably going to get 1 fps or less for most of the modern game.
2. If you really want to OC, use Rivtaner for all Nvidia card - go for system setting in rivatuner then check mark the enable driver level hardware overclocking, after than switch the standard 2D to performance 3d, then tweak your clock speed and memory speed to your ideal speed (use ati tool to determine whether there is artifacts or not) if you see artifacts in Ati-Tool slow down your clock frequencies and lower it to the last non-artifacts speed. after that check mark the startup setting then check the apply overclock speed at windows start up .
3. You probably need to adjust your fan speed as well to make sure your card isn't OH.
Again I strongly not suggest people do OC with low ended card like GF6200,7300,ATi x550,x1300, basically you gain nothing but shorten the life spam of the card.
Last thing is that I am a Technician, if any Rockets fan having any kinda of Computer related question, Don't be hesitant to PM or ask me.
