I get very similar 3dmark 01 and 06 scores with the same cpu speeds.
At the same cpu speed my card gets 7300 in 3dmark 06.
Impressive results :)
Keep on
:toast:
well this sux, the card has some kind of cold bug
:slobber: really nice MHZ.
Nice results guys!!
I thought about buying this card for my second rig, but the problem is that the performance without OC really suxx and the ATI x1950Pro is much faster...
But with this OC this card definately roxx :woot:
How temp it's cold bug ?Quote:

You can do 15600 in 2005 with only 3700mgz cpu speed ;)Quote:

is there an aftermarket cooler that fits the 8600gt/gts ??
Crazy clocks m8's...
Today i tried something like that
Grabbed a borrowed asus 8600gts, 1,5v vgpu and 2.33v mem's...
Stock "half" cooler :D and stock thermal paste
Put two tornado (92mm and 80mm) on it and pray to lord to keep listening at the end :D
Just check the reached mhz cuzz i used for this test a normal xp, daily speed (4.3Ghz) and i used 1gb ddr2 mem at 800 cas 5 cuzz my 2x1gb kit is F#cked up, tommorow new one for a 3dmark run in the future.

Lamika how did you reached 900mhz gpu without voltmod ? Did you mod you bios.Pls upload your bios somewhere so we take a look maybe you have higher voltages by default.What version of asus do you have ? reference PCB?
Nothing special.Its ref. pcp just like the others.The same.Quote:

Your lucky most people hit 750-760 nowhere near 900mhz.Upload the bios anyway anywhere you want maybe you have some special bios that could lead to other people reaching 900 mhz without mod.Thanx for the reply

Hope it helps.
@ To all with 8600gts...
I modded to 1.472 vcore ( 1.462 on load) and default vmem.
Core can do 945mhz with 2300mhz vram but not everywhere stable...
Eg, I can play for hours some games like mafia,test drive unl,alpha prime etc...but it freezes after some time on other games like oblivion, colin dirt etc + atitool...
It freezes for 4-5 sec and then it pop up a msg : '' Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered ''
To be stable i need to downclock it to 900mhz core...
I know that the problem isnt the ''high'' overclock but something at the clock change ( 2d low power / 3d ) and the switcing frequency...but...how...
Is there anyone with the same prob here ? :S
Can you tell me the default voltage of the GT???Mine with everything stock except for VF-900CU stays at 625 core clock AtiTools stable but when I go to play a game PC either crashes ou BSOD:(
750 is the norm =( mine only does 680 @ stock .
