I was just curious as to how far people have overclocked their video card? Here's mine:

Visiontek GeForce3
Core: 220MHz
Mem: 501MHz DDR

I can still push mine a bit further. Maybe some extreme cooling, hmmmm...... :burn:

In the sig......

Very stable and smooth even though bumping up any isnt. Must be limited by voltage waiting for an EZ mod. ;)

Asus V8200d 250/538 MHz. With voltage mods GPU 258 and memory 560. These with Asus heatsinks+AS2.

I'm hoping to get some MHz more with water cooling.

Visiontek GF3Ti200 runs stable @ 225/475. default is 175/400. could go higher but i start gettin graphic errors like lines across the screen, green and blue patches on the textures etc.

Default for my Radeon 7500 is 290/460

Got it to 344/566 so far and it will go more with better case ventilation.

I would say this is a pretty good overclock allthough at madonion the top 7500 is something like 350/580 pretty smoking with a 3D Mark 2K1 score near 6000!!

i run my 8500(retail) at 310\300(600) stock cooling, completely stable with no artifacts in 3dmark 2k1 or in any games. scored 6400 or so with my slot a 750 oc'd to 990. running on this pos celleron i'm using now the scores are a bit irrelevent i think:( i can push the core all the way up to 350 with no artifacts but it seems my performance dropped a little when past 310 (cooling issue?) the mem seems topped out at 300 any more i get some artifacts in q3a but nowhere else...

Just wondering if these posted scores are in 32 bit color or 16 bit? I run at 16 bit most of the time, so my score @1024x768 16bit is 6034... I got it to 6091 once but my comp crashed in Sandra's CPU burn-in after about an hour (FSB @150)


I would say 99.99 percent these are scores at 1024x768 32 bit no one really plays 16 nit that much anymore , but 16 bit allows you to get a higher score.

Hercules GF 3 Ti 500 @ 270/590 cooled by Alpha 153U.

Come on guys get some real cooling for these things, especialy for the TI500. Cant believe all these *******s charge $ 350/400
and stick a $ 0.99 cooler on them.

Maybe i should not complain, it was a birthday gift from my girlfriend:D

Main rig is running non-Oc'd, second system is a Voodoo3 2000 running at 179Mhz, mem non OC'd. I got lower scores past 179 with 3Dmark 2001, and 2000. Artifacts @ 191- 193 depending on which mother board I'm running with.
