    Speed slowed down with new drivers

    I have had bios overclocked G400 SH for some time now and I have noticed my card slowing down with 6.2x series drivers. What could do that ?? Do I have to change my card id from bios to DH max to get the same performance than with 6.10 and earlier drivers ?? Ideas ??

    I'm experiencing the same slowdown with the new drivers too, Does anyone have a solution to it that doesn't involve downgrading of drivers?

      Overclok it.When you instal the new drivers and you use matrox tweak and you take a look at the clock tweak tab you will notice that it is set at 67%.
      I tweak it with mga tweak and when i overclock it it reads 144%.When i do'nt overclock and i use matrox tweak it says it's overclocked but it still reads 67%.

        the clock-tab of mtstut-utility is very buggy (even the new version).

        use mga-tweak to look up the clocks.
        my system:

        AMD XP 2000+
        Abit KTA7 (VIA 4.49)
        512MB SDRAM133
        Matrox Millennium G400 MAX (5.91, AGP 2x)
        Windows XP Prof

          I don't think its your card.. the new drivers do seem SLOWER than the previous ones, at least in OpenGL. grrrr..
          I can notice the differance in BG2.. man that pisses me off.

            You know chaps theres a simple solution if the new drivers that don't suit you. Just go back unless you're looking for fixes, which haven't been listed as yet for these drivers.
            Theres so many combinations of motherboard and perhiperals Matrox cannot test for all.
            At the end of the day it depends on what you're looking for. In your case it seems speed. You haven't said you got problems with the other drivers so you might as well go back.
