Gainward Geforce 8800 GTS 640MB...

Just curious... what is the most you can overclock this baby?

Ive been fiddling around with it a bit and easily got it to run at 570/1700 but I am not sure how high I can push it without burning it... if that is possible nowdays...

temp is around 50-55 degrees celcius and when I overclocked it it whent up to around 60...

Might give you some idea. (from the sticky)

thanx... Looks like I can push it rather hard...

By the way... is 6334 points in 3D Mark 06 a good score considering my specs? (see signature)

Seems low, I score around 6.5k in 3dmark06 with the rig in my sig, and I have a last generation card. But that may just be due to the difference in CPU.

Maybe I am wrong, but it seems most people with the 8800 can easily get into the 9k-10k+ region.

*Edit - just so there is no confusion, I am running only the single Crossfire Edition master card. I dont have a second slave card in the setup. . . yet

I get 8500 with no oc, and 9500 with. 3Dmark06.

Ok.. I figure its my CPU that isnt up to the task then... I get lousy scores on that in 3Dmark 06... around 1500 points on the cpu tests... guess its time to upgrade it... hehehe
