Hi,
I'm using a PCI Radeon 9250 128bits 256mB (only 128mB are recognized) to have Overlay and native Warp3D on my x1000.
I have tried to play a HD movie with this gfx card, it works but it's really worst than on my Peg2 AGP Radeon 9000Pro.
When I play this movie
http://mirrorblender.top-ix.org/peach/b ... rround.avi
In fullscreen and in window mode, I have 34% of skipped frames with DVPlayer verbose option (same % in fullscreen and window mode)
On the Peg2, I only have 2% of skipped frames.
With RageMem, the Video bus speed is very low (Read = 3 mB/sec, Write = 25 mB/sec) comparing to Peg2 (52 and 221)
I have tried it with 3 cards (2 9250 128bits and 1 9250 64bits) and the DVPlayer results are around the same for each...

Are they some parameters to speed up the video bus transfer rate on CFE or AmigaOS ?
Thank for your help.

Re: Video bus speed very low when using PCI Radeon 9250
I have just tested to put the Radeon9250 on the Starteck PCI2PCIE adapter.
And it works very better.
For the same DVPlayer video
I just have, now 5% of skipped frames and 22 fps
(instead of 34% and 16 fps for the test directly on the PCI slot)
RageMem
Video Bus Read = 17 MB/s (instead of 3 MB/s directly on PCI slot)
Video Bus Write = 31 MB/s (instead of 25 MB/s directly on PCI slot)

Unfortunately, I can't keep the 9250 on the Starteck adapter, the card is to much heavy
It's strange, that the PCI slot was so slow, no ?

Re: Video bus speed very low when using PCI Radeon 9250
Could be that PCI slots are 33MHz and Startech adaptor allows 66MHz.

I think so, too.mechanic wrote:Could be that PCI slots are 33MHz and Startech adaptor allows 66MHz.

Unfortunately, therefore nothing can be do
Excepting waiting for an overlay substitution...
But thank you, mechanic and Evillord68 for your replies.

Re: Video bus speed very low when using PCI Radeon 9250
Is PCI speed will be increased on X1000 ?
According to this thread,

I don't understand,
Yes or No ?
Thanks for reply

Re: Video bus speed very low when using PCI Radeon 9250
I hope so, but that thread is now old and still inconclusive.
Sad that x1000 is still slower with 9250 than ancient A-Ones.
