What program are you guys using? I'm having a prob finding anything to oc it with and actually keep the settings.

I'm running on windows 7 pro 64 bit.

I've tried rivatuner and the one that you add in through the registry.

sounds like your running the drivers that botched the overclocking features of precision, etc. I believe they were 196.** something.

I run 186.18 and eVGA precision works like a charm. What brand card do you have? I haven't gpu clocked in so long, I don't remember if the brand matters. :shrug:

If you havent upgraded drivers before, make sure you are not raising the core over 1/2 of the shaders. They should be raised unlinked, shaders first, then core.
