Noticed something rather outlandish for this site of xtreme enthusiasts; we don't have a thread dedicated to GTX580 overclocking.
All general discussion, benchmarking and modding is to go in here :D

That is not the general GTX580 overclocking thread, read the title.
Direct CUII stock air testing 3Ds
Vgpu 1.285 smart doctor 1035/1200

Isnt 1.285 a little to high and might kill the GPU or blow up the VRM ?
This belongs to this thread.
Memory clock impact on result:
P7358 --- GTX580@1000/2000 --- 980X@4610 --- Sector 5 2250@2000/7-7-7-20-1T --- R3E --- donmarkoni
P7570 --- GTX580@1000/2400 --- 980X@4610 --- Sector 5 2250@2000/7-7-7-20-1T --- R3E --- donmarkoni
oh yes.. i'm in!! ;)
wow donmarkoni 1ghz on the gpu and it makes lower scores ...

2mhz less on the memory.
580 @ 960/1200

Basically it has like 1-2fps performance boost?Quote:

CUII on Swiftech 80 block. Will test with UD-7 next

I have something strange, my ASUS GTX580 is clocked @900MHz and mem 4200MHz with 1.1000V and my GTX580 makes a whistling sound or a buuuuuuuuuuhhhhhh and a booooohhhhhhh real light when he does 3D rendering.
Temps are 61 degress celsius on 100% load (furmark, OCCT) and during ATItool when the cube is standing still to detect errors it makes a peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.
No crashes or what so ever but can somebody recall this or know this sound, is it the proc or the capacitors and is it dangerous?
I touched the VRM's and the are hot but not to hot to touch.
Cooler is a Shaman cooler and i used a long heatspreader for the VRM's of a GTX280/285 GPU.
Electronic buzzing is quite common even way back during the FX5200
Yeah i know, virbrating of capacitors, i experienced it before but mostly they go like bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.Quote:

During Dawn of War 2 i hear the low pooooooooohhh and during ATItool it goes high like peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :rofl: (this is no joke or a fib btw)
Does somebody else experience this or most of the PC's have too much fans to even hear this and next theory is is that the standard GTX580 cooler covers the whole card so the noise will be smothered/ dimmed??
Interesting thread
It's getting up there, but the Direct CUII's are built like tanks, the VRM has been pushed over 1.5v and has held up fine. A reference card would be hurting if you tried it.Quote:

how do u manage to hold the RAM and VRM cool ? Fans ? canīt find a fullcover for this beast anywhere :(Quote:

the same thing with my old 2x280 sli
What you described is the very thing I experienced with my GTX285, lucky enough not anymore with the GTX580.Quote:

Manufacturer|Cooling Solution|GPU|Shader|Mem|Voltage
Benchmarks 3dmark11, others..
Put 2 high rpm fans in front. Full cover imo not as goos as single gpu block, it do its job to cool gpu 100%Quote:

ok, thx for info mate. then i will go with a single block too. will try one from ekwb. hope to get the card soon :D

Nice work! :up:
60 FPS in all games, same as old cards......You sure you don't have VSYNCH enabled? If so, turn it off and see what your FPS are.Quote:

Ok i find out that my friend has the same thing with his GTX570 MSI brand, during ATItool error test he has the same high pitched peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee and during a game he has the wooooooooo or pooooooooooh so you both are right, it's just how the made the PCB's, nothing to worry about.Quote:

Oh btw tip for overclockers, difference ingame from 900MHz to 950MHz result in 2-3FPS more but you need a bit more voltage to obtain stable clock and you will get higher temps in my situation it will result in 7 to 9 dregees hotter so it wasn't worth it.
People that use watercooling or any other cooling solution that won't be needing the power pins on the PCB of the GPU you can best set fan min and max to 0%, you need less voltage for your clock.
