overclock on HD2900xt

I run mine at 670/1000 with no artifacting and its stable in nearly everything I have tried it on (oblivion/stalker/SC etc) however in the dx10 CoJ benchmark I got artifacting and had to drop to 620/1000 to stop it from doing it. Thats all I have really tried with the card at the moment.

now the main problem with that is, i'm guessing you're using maybe atitool or amd gpu tool, and you're changing 2d clocks, because stock 3d clocks are 743/825 for all 512mb versions, and higher for the 1gig versions.


anyway, most people find on air the core will do 800 and mem does in general 900 at least. a lot of people have around 800-850 on core and 950-1000 on the core.

i've still not got around to playing with voltages on atitool, not even sure they work. not really seen much talk of safe voltages anywhere so been putting it off.

anyway, on stock cooling a decent overclock seems pretty damn easy. at some point better cooling will be needed. i've got mine on watercooling and get very very similar clocks to without watercooling despit earound 25c lower load temps. so fairly sure i'm voltage limited for a larger clock.
 
Mine will do 860 core, but the memiry isn't 100% stable at 1000, so I've dropped it to 975. Those settings proberbly won't BSOD, so use ATi tool to chech for artifacts, if so, just drop the clocks a bit:)

Sorry messed that up, I meant 860/1000!

Is the newest version of ati tool working for the card now?
 
Thank you all...

I did try ati tool but my machaine would lock-up and get wierd lines on screen and i did not even get to overclock the card.

I am now using riva tuner and i will set mine too 800core and 950 mem

AT STOCK I GET I GET 10860 ON 3DMARK 06 LETS SEE WHAT THE ABOVE CLOCKS GET?

WISH ME LUCK
 
Use AMDGPUClockTool to overclock, seems to give the most stable results.

Mine will bench all day long at 820/1010 :)

I managed to get 12130 with a 3.4ghz C2D and my XT @ 860/975. Although I can't submit results for certain reasons taht will remain undisclosed ;)

Well at 800 core and 950 memory I got 11,160 points "iam happy :) "
Mat be i will push a bit more...

Thanks to all
