*** The Official G92 8800GTS 512 Overclocking Thread ***

Anyone able to give me some help, installed latest 169.21 drivers and now I dont see any options for forceware in rivatuner so cant overclock, am I missing something?
 
Anyone stuck one under water yet and using what block? :)

Got an Ek block sat here but I'm not sure if its worth the £55, would I see that much of a difference? Otherwise it will get sent back!

Thing is with these G92 GTS/GT they are not really limited by heat (clocking wise) therefore the block is only really worth it if you want to quieten the system down by putting the GTS on the loop

Is that right? have people been testing the 8800GTS 512MB long enough to have figured this out?

Well it was the case for the GT the cards are very similar so I can only presume this is the case. But more testing may be required Wayne so thanks for pointing that out ;).
 
Thanks for the reply, I've got until Friday to decide as thats the last day I can apply for return!

The fan is quiet anyway though isn't it? Would be able to control the fan in software so its quiet when on desktop and upto 100% when in games.

What about the 8800GTX? did that overclock better with more cooling?
Click to expand...

Only when you did a volt mod would you then require some intense cooling and thus allowing you to push further. I didn't hear of anyone having problem maxing their cards on default volts with default cooling providing they had decent air flow through the case to start with :).

tsinc, apparently the card is silent according to some but then everyones definition of "quiet" varies greatly.
 
I too thought they wern't limited by heat but i could only get 1728 shader clock on my gt after installing the accelero s1 i can get 1804.
 
Could someone post there own gaming results? Would be nice to see as most of the reviews online have very conflicting scores when it comes to the games...
