What did your 9700 pro max out at?

[TheWeaseL]

Just curious what everyone elses 9700 pro maxed out at?

I've started overclocking mine, just the GPU mainly right now. I don't have heatsinks on my ram yet, but they are ordered and on their way here. So I can't get anything more then 330(DDR660) of them without artifacting/throttling. The ram chips say Samsung on them...not sure if those are the good ones...

However, right now, until my water cooling setup gets here, I have a corb on my GPU. Haven't taken the shim off yet, but I will when I put my swiftec waterblock on there.

So far, gpu is at 400mhz, runs fine, no artifacts or anything. I haven't done any voltage mods yet, way too scared I'll ruin it.

So how far have you taken your 9700 pro?

365 gpu/ 702 memory, artifact free, added an iCEBERQ4 and Tweakmonster RAMsinks but they really didn't give me any MHz, just a cooler videocard

Herc 9700pro 372/365 stock
Gigabyte 9700pro 365/345 stock

both artifact free

I loved the mem on the Hercules. :)

Well so far I've gotten 400/345 on my 9700np I got off of ebay for under $200. 2.8ns samsung bgas and stock cooler. I do have my 12" fan hooked up right now, though. I think either the RAM or the core have a few more mhz left.

My core didnt gain a single mhz with the Iceberg4 on it. I only got 5mhz with the tweakmonsters.

Right now its rock solid at 375/660. No v-mods or anything.

[Stang_Man]

359/324 with stock cooling

371/334 with 1.7v on gpu and 3.15v on mem

411/334 with 1.7v on gpu and 3.15v on mem with an AMD heatsink on the gpu

465/371 with 1.8v on gpu and 3.15v on mem with a Swiftech MCW50-T 80 watt peltier and ~5C water

more vmods to come and more tweaking, as that last set of clocks wasn't even maxed yet imo...

[Andrew LB]

Well... my iceburg 4 is now gone and i've added a CoolJag 1U CPU cooler with a delta fan. My card now does 385 with stock voltage.

I think i need to v-mod it soon. :)

Same here, I finally got off my lazy butt and watercooled my 9700p, chilled water of course.

398 gpu and 716 ddr artifact free, and no v-mods...at least not until they release a Radeon 9900 or equivalent.

440/350 with MCW50-T and no volt mods....

446/376 with Zalman heatpipe aircooling with two fans blowing on it.
And currently too happy with it to buy a 9800 (and no money but that's another story)

update:

430/344 core @ 1.9v, air cooled.

Powercolor 9700pro 411 gpu 724 ram stock voltages
Big ole Globalwin aluminum cooler w/60mm fan on gpu with big home made aluminum HS on ram.

463/378 - vgpu @ 1.80 and cooled with Swifty MCW50-T and water to about +10dc I was able to get my 20K 3dmark score :)

The card actually ran at 475 on the core in testing but was not stable for a full benchmarking run :)

[TheWeaseL]

Well, since this thread kinda got bumped up, I'll throw my update into it.....

After doing more testing and stuff, I had to back my gpu down to 393, and it is on water (MCW50), but I haven't taken the shim off, so that might be part of it. Although the back of the card is not warm either under the cpu, so it may need more juice.

My ram on the other hand, has been kicking tail. 360 is what she is running at, and hasn't complained a bit. No volt mods on this beast.

[BiG]

490/353 - vgpu @ 1.80V, cooled with Swiftech MCW50-T on my Sapphire 9700 np.

[sexsymbol]

Everything stock, just replaced the TIM with ceramique and lapped the heatsink.
380/330
Can go higher with the core but artifacts start to appear and even at 380 after several hours of Delta Force some start to arise. With the mem can´t go any higher. As soon as I raise the mem my desktop becomes dizzy.

450/360 Prommy March I cooled

The best was Prommy on the GRU voltmod and small peltier on the ram that got me:

492/383

is that with vmods??
cause if so, for that kind of cooling, it's a bit dissapointing.

just mo

[saaya]

9500np@9700pro 370/350 :D everything stock

EDIT: only runs 2k1 up to 340/325 :confused: it does 370/350 in games though... at least in some.

ok, :)

[STEvil]

You guys are making me want to put my 80watt pelt on my 9700np... lol.

[Ocbench]

Well, its been a while. I had a Hercules card, and installed a Zalman Zm80a-Hp and mounted 2 92mm fans, and carried the hole thing outside. (A cold April day) It maxed out at 439mhz on the core. Not too bad considering it was air cooled.
