Geforce GTX285 overclocking thread

[Blkout]

Ive been wondering what an artifact in furmark looks like,, the same old torn textures / yellow blinking dots?

Pretty much, blinking colored dots is one sure sign. But really anything that just doesn't look normal. Run Furmark at default speeds and get an idea of what it's supposed to look like, then OC and do the same. If anything looks unusual, it's an artifact.

one game that stresses this GPU alot is Shellshock 2, my crysis overclock was not stable in this game, so if you think you have a stable overclock, you might wanna run this game to confirm.

Did some little overclocking, seems like my vanilla 285 can run at the same speed with EVGA's SSC ( so i guess the SSC's arnt binned chips after all )

Yep, as stated in the mod thread though, the SSC does have slightly more voltage but it doesn't seem to make much difference as the vanilla's are clocking almost as well. I do however think that eVGA is getting a better batch of chips though as they seem to overclock better than the other manufacturers based on OC data I've seen so far from various forums.

Must be from that higher stock voltages that they are putting in default.

Well, you're the only one reporting lower voltages with your Palit brand so I don't think that's it as eVGA's still seem to be overclocking better than the other brands. I've seen XFX's and BFG's that don't overclock as well as the average eVGA card.

NaplamV5 also has 1.13-1.14 on his regular GTX285 as posted on the other thread.

So i guess the reference default is 1.13-1.14 and not 1.15 -1.16 since in my getting those.

yeh 1.13-14 should at least be the bootup voltage.. my amp 285 had the same 1.13-14 @ bootup before any mods

try diff mobo/psu

hard to believe 1.20 offered nothing over 1.13-14.. but the vid bridging should and it does raise vgpu to 1.26-28.. it did on my amp

720/1566/1350 and im getting 91c under Furmark in this blazing 35c afternoon!
