Gah my card STILL hasn't arrived :( this is taking WAY too long :down:
pre testing my Palit 8600GT Sonic+, 1ns DDR3 :D. got 770/1050 on default voltage :D, hopefully not coldbugged as my first 8600GT Sonic coldbug at 0c LOL
oh maaan
my card at stock won't go past 850 on RAM :rofl:
So glad I got those 2GHz GDDR3 ICs :up: Might have some time today to mod my card, my life is so hectic :( JamesBong sounds promising though, maybe 1GHz on air?
yea i will do a few 1.6+v air runs just to see if 1ghz is possible on air... i just cant beleave the memory on these cards.. no joke i can barley get passed 740mhz on the memory even with 2.18v... :cool::D:p:
memory circuit needs more/better regulation I think... same as the 8400's before.
has any one try'd adding more capacitors??? may help
btw my card runns 850 mem at 1.9v, i belive i have samsung 1.2ns
card is a pny overclocked version, nvidia reverence designed
Please add me to the Contestants list:yepp:
WUHAHAHA My card arrived this morning :D
Mine to, just know!:up:Quote:

Course, want to?Quote:

Thinking about it... How much does CPU speed matter with this card? My e8400 is straight up garbage.Quote:

Good to see a PALiT card :up:Quote:

STEvil, think that's only really affecting the top end ATi stuff atm - probably shouldn't be that big a deal with us?Quote:

Quick bench run - no vmods, air cooled, badly setup system rig :p:

1140MHz on the memory & 7501MHz on the core, but that'll be going up shortly :D
do win need to post a setup foto?
@johnny
wow you guys sure did get the right mem... mine are 14s only rated to 700mhz.. and hate voltage =*(
1.4ns on my Asus Silent as well.
Add capacitors James... and put a power connector in that empty spot, our PCB's are every bit as capable as Johnny's there lol ;)
i have added 8 caps and noticed 0 increase in mhz... i have not added anything as to the power...
also what are u hitting on the memory?:p:
