    Have a Asus a7v8x with a XP2100 chip and 512DDR 2700 memory what are the best setting for this in the bios as my benchmarks seem pretty low

    Operating System Microsoft Windows XP

    DirectX Version 8.1
    Mobo Manufacturer ASUSTeK Computer INC.
    Mobo Model A7V8X
    AGP Rates (Current/Available) 4x / 1x 2x 4x
    CPU AMD Athlon(tm) XP/MP/4 1270 MHz
    FSB 100 MHz
    Memory 512 MB

    Test Results

    Memory Score 2305

    HDD Score 903

    any help would not go amiss

    Cheers

    Well for starters you're seriously underclocking your CPU , you should be running the FSB at 133 to get the proper speed out of it.

    What speed of memory are you running?. If you increase the FSB speed, check that the memory is running synchronously with the FSB (i.e. it's not adding another 33 onto the speed). You might also try dropping the AGP to 2x (won't affect performance).
