coolbits detects to 487/1.17 on my 7800gt is it a good overclocker?

[RAMMAN]

tried it during the hottest part of the day too.stock cooling/voltage.is it a good overclocker or what .

 

[Sniper.nkc]

I say that is very good. I get about 489/1160

 

[freeagent]

is it safe to run at what coolbits detects? my stock clocks are 470/685, and coolbits detects 536/806...

 

[Arca_ex]

yeah it "detected" over 650 core on my 7900GT...


you need volt mods to get that high...

My 7800GT detected @ 500/1200 but was able to push to 520/1240. Go me

 

[natewildes]

Go you . IrishAssassin, is your card air or watercooled?

 

[IrishAssassin]

Stock air cooling, it loads @ 57C. I'm debating on putting my Arctic Silencer that I have laying around.

Coolbits usually auto detects somewhat conservatively too. 487 is a nice OC for a non-vmodded card. You should do the vmod and see what your max OC is. You may be able to do close to 510. That's pretty good for a 7800GT. @ IrishAssassin, no vmod on that card? 520 is extremely high without the vmod, and even with the vmod, that's still a very strong card.

i thought my 7800gs was a 7800gt core thats been neuted. But its clocks along at 500/1400 (overclocked anyway). ive benched at 510/1500, but she was snowing.

 

[IrishAssassin]

Yea no vmods or anything. I usually run it @ 500/1200 and bench @ 520/1240. I got a good carD

I think that's correct, but I've seen some awesome OCs with the 7800gs cards. Some do quite a bit better than my 7800 GT ever did and even score a little higher too, I think.
