OC gain from RAMsinks?

[Gimps]

I'm running a GF2 MX400 with 64mb of RAM (I think is SDRAM), and the defualt clock is 166MhZ. If I get RAMsinks what kind of gains should I expect to see, and do you think it's worth it if i only have SDRAM?

[Wega!]

I think about 4- 10 increace in MHz, depending on what types of ram sinks you get, and how lucky you are.

I've used powerstrip with no additional cooling to go up to 185 with the RAM. When you say 4-10 do you mean percent or just raw value?

[Wega!]

I mean MHz.... On my old MX I got 5MHz more when I added ram sinks....

What do you get in 3dMark 2001..

I have a GeF2 MX-400 with 32MB of ram running at 210 core and 210 mem it scores a 2899...

I just ran my GF2 at stock settings of 200/175 and got a score of 2896. I haven't seriously tried overclocking yet so maybe I'll try it.

none!

I put the little buggers on my V3, didn't do anything. Stuck some on a GF 256, didn't do anything. Stuck em on my GTS, and there it seemed to help- I think it is because the GTS uses DDR memory that ran MUCH hotter than the other 2 cards.

If it's not a hi-speed DDR card I say don't bother.
