    Hi there,
    I bought a Palit 7600GT in January this year back when i knew squat about computers. I realise now that a lot of the other 7600GT's are clocked at 560/1400 Mhz whereas mine is at 560/700. Th Palit site doesnt say anything.
    I looked all over the net but found mixed up or no mention of the clocks.
    Can you tell me how to find out?
    If anyone else with a Palit 7600GT could respond with their clocks it would be even better.

    Am I being ripped off?
    I still got the receipt.

    Its a Palit 256Mb 7600GT DDR3
    Speeds when i bought it -
    Core clock: 560Mhz
    Memory clock: 700Mhz

    I think that because the card uses DDR (dual data rate) memory, and the memory clocks at 700mhz, the dual data rate makes it 1400mhz 'effective'. I looked at several other brands of 7600GT's (Jaton, BFG, XFX, and others) and they all said pretty much the same thing: Engine Clock 560mhz, Memory Clock 1400mhz effective; and in a couple of instances it said: Memory Clock 700mhz (1400mhz effective). So I think you're OK. I could be wrong tho'; I'm no expert when it comes to these things, but it all makes sense, no? ;)

    yea dave you hit the nail right on the head. thats why it says "effective" on the 1400mhz one and just 700 on urs
