Thread: Nvidia Overclock Help

Hey can somebody tell me finest overclocking settings for my standard, factory Nvidia 8800 GT (1GB) - No extra cooling factory.

Factory = 8800GT
Core clock = 600
Shader clock = 1500
Memory clock = 900
100% Fan rate at standard = 60 C

any suggestions?

Thank You!

I forever stand for by common sense when overclocking a graphics card. Usually I start at regarding a 10% increase and check the PC for any errors, over heating or BSODs for a day or two, I individually wouldn't go beyond 15% devoid of some extra cooling, mostly as I don't like monitoring the temperatures the whole time.

This is just my opinion and how I do things, it may not necessarily be the best, safest, or most beneficial way of doing it.

Rive Tuner is your best bet here, but to be honest you won’t see that much of an improvement in FPS, all it will do is shorten the life of the card, and of course raise the temperature, those 8800's can get quite toasty as it is.
If you go ahead with this, go in small steps, as points out, 10% is about it.
Hope this helps, good luck and post your results.
