crappy card, decent over clock

[i found nemo]

check this out, i decided to overclock my nvidia vanta lt from a meer 80mhz stock to 180+ and the ram from a wimpy 100mhz to a still wimpy 190+

cooling is no heatsinks, but two socket 7 fans one on each side of the video card....umm i can run 3d mark @ 165 core and 170+ memory core voltage is stock, dunno how to change it and i'm using rivatuner just thought this would be fun to post up....

Hehe.

And how slow is it now?

(i mean how much faster... but the word "faster" seems innapropriate"

[i found nemo]

lol well it's still slow and see barely any improvemnts as far as fps goes, actually only 5 fps higher than stock lol

thats some mad clocks man! I think I still have a couple of those vantas, I used to own one as a primary gaming card for at least a year till I got my geforce2mx back in 2001. I gamed with the card stock cause ocing it didnt seem to give me any real performance gains, may have been cpu limited with my 300a at 504 celeron too. dont remember the clocks but I think both did like 150MHz, me thinks it was speed binned tnt2's with 64 bit ram bus and underclocked too.

well from what i read this has the tnt chipset or somethin' yea i noticed no improvements, except in pc mark 04 there's this one thing, like 64-bit line or something like that and @ 120mhz i hit 173 fps and @ 140 mhz core & 180 mhz mem i hit 235 fps...but tha's the only spot i seen improvement

hi
nice vanta OC man!
i got TNT2 Ultra @ 205mhz vmodding the core: 2,88V @ 3,22V

PD: don´t matter it is old, get the max OC of your vanta

sorry for my bad english

hey man gr8 o/c i don't solder, have bad experience with it lol what is 205mhz? core or memory?

[Xenon-X]

it is core frecuency. 205mhz all stable: i played 1 hour of Unreal Tournament and no errors displayed

I just downloaded the datasheet of the voltage regulator, found the Feedback pin and soldered a 50K VR between this pin (blue wire) and ground. Red wire is vcore The maximum voltage output of the chip is 3,22V, so you won´t kill the core.

Ghaha thats great. I never thought anybody would want to mod a tnt2 . Maybe i'll try that one out myself
