Have fun folks!!! :D
 
I've been away for two weeks smart arse :D lol

So what results have people had and with what cards?

Same as any other clocking application I'd of thought :p.

One thing I do like about it, is no messing. I use this instead of Rivatuner now...

Got 621/1512/1000(2000)

Out my GTX with it

NICE!! :)

I take it thats:

621 Core
1512 Shader (1500 would be ultra speeds :D)
2000 Memory

Much difference mate?

That's correct

Yes mate I've noticed a little difference gaming, does seem to have quite a bit more grunt, the biggest was the extra 1k in 3DMark it gained.

Not bad for free :p
 
Cool, just got this a overclocked my card to the speed in my sig and i gained about 3 fps (Average in GPU benchmark) in crysis, which is around a 10% increase. For my first overclock i don't think that is to bad. TY Andy for letting me know :)

No worries mate :)


Does this work on Vista x64 at all?

I'm running it on Vista 64 Home Premium mate :)
 
I didn't know andy :)


Come on then benchmarks peeps... i want crysis, half life etc get a move on :p

Though it would be good to see how much changing the shader has an affect on fps. Espeicaly in a game like crysis.
 
does this save your settings so its default at startup or not? cause i have found my GTS IMPOSSIBLE to overclock in vista and keep it stable, will higher shader clock give large performance boost?
 
im guessing that overclocking core, shader or mem will all increase heat, but which is most important to overclock? like would sacrificing some shader speed for some more core speed be good? or is it best to overclock all evenly?
