driver update/optimaztion for Mobility Radeon X200 Pls

dillonjones · Jul 7, 2006, 08:57 PM

My Specs:

Compaq Presario V5101US
AMD Sempron 3300+ 2.0 Ghz 128kb cache
1 Gig laptop Ram 2 chips of PC2700 333 Mhz SDRAM
60 Gig 4200 RPM Hard Drive
Non-removable DVD/CD-RW
ATI Mobility Radeon X200 128MB shared video memory, 16MB onboard GDDR3 memory

What else I need to include heh.

Driver and system optimazation and update request:

I am very enthusiastic about WoW, especially my char. I apologize for using this forum for that, but once I started a footnote, it became a paragraph; which in turn became Chapter 1 First Draft... you get the idea. Anyway, I am intrested in drivers for my ATI Mobility Radeon Xpress 200 that will help me play WoW at high performance. I need something that will help me really push the boundries of my chipset capabilities. Omega drivers impress me, they definitly nailed it as far as configurability, reliability, and enhancements go, but I am hoping for something better to help me go farther. What about NGO or DNA? I would love to hear from someone who does know and can speak with authority on how those drivers stack up. One thing I wonder about is if disableing a DMA channel from an unused device, then reassigning it to my Radeon Mobility, along with assigning a new memory range taken from another disabled device will enable me to effectually increase my shared video memory. I had 3 fans and a homebuilt mini-heatsink on this laptop (very fun project) that had my mobility clock at 430MHZ, 130MHZ higher than factory, running slightly hotter than factory tempurature, but it has since been removed for portabilities sake, and also because I wasn't ok anymore with the way it sounded like a miniature jetliner was flying around inside the comically thick casing. I am very intrested in deep hardware tweaks, because they offer the most promise of performance increase. Hope someone can help me, but I have have read laptop video card forums, and an optimistic and/or desired response to posts like these are never good.

Thanks for reading my post, I'll update my WoW Paladin Guide later today. (kidding
