8800GTS/GTX - Post Your Clocks!

[PCduster]

Hey all, I am trying to gather data from here, EOC and the [H] about how these 8 series cards are clocking for people.

I am going to do as "Thread" did at EOC and create a spreadsheet with user names and the clocks they have achieved. It will contain data from the three sites in a big spreadsheet with the following info:

- Username
- Brand/Model
- Core/Mem Clock
- Cooling method
- Idle/Load Temps
- Misc info. i.e. - volt mods, thermal paste changed, bios mod etc..

So if you guys could provide the info above, I will gather all the data together for one big spreadsheet. I was very interested in the results over at EOC, and hope that we can discuss these results more.

Please! If you do participate, take a look at this first: LINK . This is to be sure you are reporting accurate clocks, and getting the most out of your card. Saying that you are running "660" core is a dead giveaway that you have not read about how these cards clock

Feel free to suggest any other info you guys think may be a good idea to include.


Update: June 28th

Wow, I've been away for what feels like ages.. I just got done moving into a new home and have finally had some time to mess around on the 'puter. I volt modded my core and have reached 729 with 1.4V! I am testing further to be sure it is stable at this speed, but it is looking good so far!

Anyways, I updated the charts with what I could find, and I would also like to mention that some people have shown interest in including 3DM06 scores and cpu specs to better gauge the performance difference that overclocking these cards has.

VERY nice clocks on the GTX, thanks for replying!

lol so you got volt mods and all that, then in your sig, 8800gtx 684/1110mhz <== no mods!

sorry had to do it

nah dude look at what PCduster said in the first post.. i just copy pasted that part that says
"Misc info. i.e. - volt mods, thermal paste changed, bios mod etc"
look after the : ... i only added a new layer of thermal paste on the memory and core LOL, you should read more carefully.

running the 158.19's card seems to like these best. especially temps. with the 158.22's my temps rose 6 c!!!

at idle was almost 58..with these 51c IQ and performance is the same to me on XP between the drivers. havent run 3dmark in ages though

[Sentential]

Your using a core 2 duo, which is why it may seem to be the same as my score at least. Im also using older drivers before 1xx series.

Oh and hi long time no see Sent

Same to you Btw turned out that card was a dud, long term stability put the mem at 812 so I sent it back. New card:

- Misc info:

This is the third card Ive gotten locally. First had a dead fan second had bad RAM. STAY AWAY FROM THIS BRAND

[PCduster]

Caught up to this point, I added the charts to the first post. Thanks to all that replied!

I just started overclocking my dual 8800gts 640mb SLI cards. They're EVGA variety and i can run the cores stable at 650mhz. I have yet to get into clocking up the memory.

stock cooling, no mods.

[MaK2000]

I am running XFX 88GTX XXX Edition at 660 1000 with 41C-64C temps with stock cooler. I still have some tweaking to do but this is my 24/7 stable clocks and I still have room to go up from here.

Hi!

since my 8800GTS (and all other G80 based card) running HOT, i was about to change my stock cooler system, replace it with Thermalright HR-03 Plus!
since the weather turned so warm here Hungary, i was not able to run my 8800GTS with OC! it was generating visual artifact, nv4_disp.dll BSoD etc...
so i had to go back to default clocks, but still my card temp was:
idle 53-55 celsius
load: 68-70 celsius.
So I almost ordered HR03 Plus for ~50 euroes... expensive... considering i bought the VGA for ~250 euros...

BUT!
i saw a home made cooling mod picture for 8800 series... and i decided to make it myself!
here we are:
http://aycu12.webshots.com/image/146...1188206_rs.jpg
removing the stock case from the card was easy (4 screws only)
http://aycu16.webshots.com/image/176...6603227_rs.jpg
the I applied the 80mm fan with blue led
http://aycu38.webshots.com/image/163...8270532_rs.jpg

cool, iznit?!
new temps:
idle: 45 celsius
load: 58-59 tops

now you do the math...!
worth it for almost free? u only need a 80 or 90mm cooler.
YESSSSSSSSS

Great job, but post in the wrong place.

that mod didn't do anything for a few people at other forums

i am surprised it made such a massive difference to you

pretty poor clocking card. I'll be throwing it on water and adding some voltage soon, hopefully it will do better.

[PCduster]

I wonder what happened to pcduster. It would be really nice if he could change my name on his spreadsheet to dengyong. I sent him a pm last week but still no word.

First off, I would like to apologize to you about messing up your name on the list, it isn't very cool for me to not double check to make sure I have spelled everyones name right after they have taken the time to share data with me. I have corrected the mistake.

Secondly, I would like to apologize to all for my absence. I am not normally one to start something and just ignore it, but I moved into a new house within the last week and a half, and only just got my Fios installed a few days ago. It seems I won't have the time like I used to to surf the forums until I get settled.

I would like to thank you all for providing me info, it has proven to be a nice and interesting project!

I have updated the charts in my original post.

[dengyong]

Thanks, nice work.
