some of my parts:
-RADEON8500LE 128mb catalyst 2.2 driver
-monitor is a Dell M780
-Celeron 1400mhz
-intel SE440BX-3 mobo
-win2k pro, service pack 3
i have a few questions involving graphics:
1)what is AGP APETURE SIZE? i can set 64 mb and 256 mb in the bios, but what is it? should i set it at 256mb or 64mb? the default is 64mb.
2)what refresh rate should i run my screen on? the default is 60hz but im running at 75hz (75hz thats the limit when i check the box "hide modes that the monitor cannot display") should i go higher than 75hz? should i leave it at 75hz? should i lower it to 60hz?
3)is there anything i can do to (except overclocking) increase performance? any tweaks? any checkboxes that i need to check? i have the ATI control panel installed.
your help would be greatly appreciated, im a gamer and it means a lot to me.
