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

yes
Well after reading the entire thread, there are less cards that do 800/2200 stable than there are that don't... got anything to back this up? neither of mine will get to 2200 mem, both are 800mhz stable on the core, but not in sli... that's about normal though..
Cooling isn't an issue either, 45°c with ati tool scanning for artefacts, less in everything else, 37°c idle.
sorry should have said that am on xp the .25 are for vista and i tryed .21 before and was getting freezes
Yep, just fitted mine. Checking for artifacts @750/1875/1000 right now.
Having to run high fan speed though for acceptable temps (63c under load!!). Better get a block ordered and get it into my loop asap!
Will report back in a bit with results.
(Woo hoo! first post back after first ever ban
)Running stable now @775/1937/1052. 800 core showed artifacts in ATI tool.
To say that I'm disappointed with the benchmark results would be an understatement. Compared to my 8800GTS-640 I've gained less than 500 points in 3dmark06 (400 with the overclock!) and no improvement whatsoever in the Crysis benchmark (although the max fps went up, the min fps went down!).
I really thought it would be a worthwhile upgrade, now I'm not so sure. Unless my cpu is a bottleneck, although looking at the crysis benchmark table I really should be seeing better results.
I've tried a few different drivers but to no avail. Anyone have any ideas?

24/7 stable? wtf i get artifacts at 800/mem 1000 / shaders 1950 after like 4 minutes of ati tool
running now 750/1925/1000 for 24/7 point of view @3.6ghz q6600 is there point of pushing harder or getting new card ? i can play everything on high at 22" ? an card is cool 44c

lol. i find it hilarious hat this gets bumped on the day that the rebadged card comes out. Great job, nVidia
You might but what about your standard ebay punter
Exactly. Sold my 8800GT BFG OC last week for £135 on the bay and bought a Gigabyte 8800GTS 512 for £127.
After fees shipping costs (I made a fiver on my shipping) I ended up shelling out 38 pence to swap cards - result

The easyrider shuffle...
My highest BFG 8800 GTS 512mb OC results so far that have run 3DMark 06...
Core - 820mhz
Mem - 1100mhz
Shaders - 1900mhz
Stock air cooling at the moment.
Bad luck mate
My ASUS went further
Hence why I get a better score in O6 posted months ago.
