My score (http://service.madonion.com/compare?2k1=4637419) 10319 270/550. Im still messing with it but not to shabby of a start. :) Anyone have an idea how far I can push a ti500 ?

I'd say thats a darn good OC you got there. For your speed the highest score is 12829. You could try some of the new Det drivers.

I managed to get my PNY Ti500 up to 10450 using a combination of the 40.71 dets, Riva Tunor, and PowerStrip (older version).

I attempted using the detonator drivers for my overclocking and to lock my refresh rate in, but got nothing but lock ups, crashes, and blue screens. The drivers work great for me as far as performance and speed, just so long as I don't use the bells and whistles.

Got the settings at 264/515 at the moment, don't really see any need to go higher. Waiting for x-mas, then on to a new card if the price is right.

thats a great overclock !! Good job, nice to have that extra boost from your cpu, I am curious how my 8500 would score with an intel chip under the hood

sheeesh when I get around to it I will crack the 10K mark, soon as I unlock my 1600 and then try the 1800XP I am using as well to see which one pr\oves to be the better overclocker

On my Ti500 the stock clock speed is 240/500 I believe, I see he is running at 270/550.

Mine I run slightly lower because my processor can make up for it at 264/515. I would put a bit more cooling on my card if I wanted to push it.

My card is a Visiontek Xtasy ti 500. The 1.6a is running at 2402, and my ram is Mushkin Level 2 pc2100 2-2-2.
