Hello.
I have just 'upgraded' from Asus A7V8X-X motherboard with Athlon XP2700 to a ECS KV2 Lite with Athlon64 3800. I have kept my ATI Radeon 9800 graphics card.
I tested the system with Aquamark 3 benchmark and was very supprised to find that my GPX score had dropped from about 5000 to just under 3000. I was not expecting it to have changed much.
I have reloaded Via Hyperion drivers v5.10 and reloaded graphic drivers, latest v7.3 and an old version v5.10 I had, but no effect.
The settings in the Bios seem OK
Is the ECS board that much worse than the Asus board design, or can anyone suggest another cause.
Can anything be done to restore the graphic performance?
Testing with 2x512MB matching ram. Windows XP2 SP2
Regards
