260x10 = 2600Mhz - Dram 180div : 236Mhz 2-2-2-5-1T (max CPU speed is 2673Mhz)

The GFX frequencies was as high as I could get, disabling internal tests gave me a much lower score...even at 625Mhz with no artifacts at all...

617/1850

'03 : 22032
'05 : 10563
AM3 : 97,241

Pleased with the results :toast:

The explanation for that is what i have said...
When you disable the internal clock test and OC de card with rivatuner i dont know why but the card runs in low3D clocks, 500/the value you set for memory...the core stick in 500...

Power User > enable perf. lvl forcing,
then when you OC > Force constant perf. 3D setting.

You may have to just back up your BIOS using nvflash in DOS and mod the clockspeeds with Nibitor to get it to set right.

I think I won't bother to play with DI or LN2 since I can't do voltage modifications to this loan card. Shamino, kingpin and Kinc are showing some insane numbers ;)

Volt mods on my cards go tomorrow. Going to run 1.65 on GPU with water and 2.3 on memory with heatsinks...

One of the two XFX cards I have is a monster out of the box. No mods stock air cooling it's artifact free at 661/1950, the second card can only do 641/1920. The single moster breaks 25k in 3DMark03 at those clocks with my FX-57 and nearly 11.7k in 05. Now time to volt mod...

Looking to fire the system up today and test out the cards. Like I said, 700/2000 is my goal with volt mods although I think the cores will probably go higher than this... :D

You're right, with the volt mods, 700/2000 should be a piece of cake. :D

Just got one to test it..

I'm really impressed with these 512MB GTX cards, just mount the card do a quick bench with stock cooler ..and get this..

http://pedrorocha.planetaclix.pt/120...ck637_1870.jpg

Instant 12K in 2005 :slobber:

With my previous GTX 256MB, also stock cooler and the FX-57 on vapo more or less at same speed ..

http://pedrorocha.planetaclix.pt/101...00GTXStock.jpg

That's almost 2K in 3Dmark2005 gain with a revision of the core and faster memory speed..

ATI may be in serious trouble in high-end market if the X1800XT PE and Crossfire don't came out very quickly ..I'm a long time ATI fan but I have to admint this .. :(

That's awesome... I really need someone to teach me how to tweak these nvidia drivers and OC these cards. I ran 661/1950 (stock cooler on air) w/ 3.65ghz and scored 300 points less than you!! :slap:

Pedro is that a XFX or BFG card?

Can anyone tell me if the MSI card is any good. If so I have to buy one while they last
