I don't need this speed while normal usage of the computer and with 65% it is still too load for me. Ok well i have an evga 8800 gt super over clocked i want over clocking it to a evga 8800 gt scc edition. We delete comments that violate our policy, which we encourage you to read. Vista with newer directx 12, and with features.

You can not change the clock speed in Windows because the driver will reject any core clock above 680 MHz. If it is stable, increase the BIOS clocks by 10 MHz again and repeat. Then you modify the BIOS to run at 690 MHz, flash the BIOS in DOS (there is no G92 flasher for Windows yet), boot into Windows and verify that this frequency is stable. When attempting this, I suggest you verify first that 680 MHz core clock is perfectly stable on your card. Please note that at this time Nibitor does not support editing the GeForce 8800 GS BIOS, but I expect support to be added soon. Since the card has to run at some speed, the BIOS clock speed will always be set. The trick here lies in modifying the BIOS to apply a higher core clock by default. The clocks above are the maximum we could reach with the driver's clock limit in place, already very impressive.īut of course we wanted to see if there's a way to get more out of the card. Limiting the core clock makes sense from an NVIDIA business perspective because otherwise this card would kill all the GeForce 8800 GT and 8800 GTS sales. Please let us know in the comments section if you experience this issue or not if you have a GeForce 8800 GS and overclock it. Update: As I am told people are not seeing this clock limit with the cards from XFX.
There is a grey zone of around 10 MHz which you can reach when playing around with 680 - 690 MHz clocks.
From then on the overclocks revert instantly because NVIDIA has put a lock into their driver which limits the core clock to a maximum of 680 MHz. When overclocking the GPU core frequency, everything is fine until you reach about 680 MHz. When overclocking the core, the first thing you should enable is independent shader clock adjustments, then find the maximum stable shader clock. Overclocking the memory was extremely easy, basically you set the clock to 1000 MHz which should always work since 1.0 ns chips are installed and then work your way up from there. OverclockingTo find the maximum overclock of our card we used a combination of Rivatuner, ATITool and our benchmarking suite.
