So I got a GTX260 to replace my GTS250, cos I needed a double precision GPU to run milkyway cuda. (that worked - my rac went from 200 to 2000 in a day :D)

The 250 came with a little app called smartdoctor which allowed the clocks to be tweaked at will, seemed to work OK I just turned the shaders up all the way :eek:

The 260 has a different app called SPAtune which only seems to have three settings overclock, standard and green. The OC shader setting shows 1476 on gpu-Z.

I have seen some mentions on here of other utils to clock GPUs, could anyone advise please if they think I could use something else better to turn up the heat?
 
Thanks for the recommendations, evga precision does the trick. I don't seem to be able to be as heavy with the throttle with this 260, but ho hum I'll crank it up little by little to find the edge.

As there's been hardly any work on Seti, MilkyWay, Rosetta and Einstein it been difficult to see yet if I've gained much from the swap.
