point me at a gpu guide someone

I've always just installed them and let them do their own thing, the GPU client and it's installer are pretty good as far as I know.

Too many hours spent with the SMP client. :p
 
loving this 8800GS at the minute. Timings are based on completed wu's and no eue as yet. Willl continue tomorrow buy upping the shadders some more :D

Droped temps/fanspeed and cut step time by 5% so far (that an extra 200ppd on a 5013)

Core:Mem:shaders:seconds:ppd

575:850:1438:100:4147ppd (stock)
560:840:1500:97:4275ppd (use xpertvision own limited clocking tool)
502:802:1600:95:4365ppd (use rivatuner to drop the core significantly)
 
I run the shaders on mine at 1810mhz.

610/900/1810 overall. 4800-4900ppd with the 1.19 core. As you probably know you don't need to worry about the mem clock (900 is stock on my GS) and the shader clock has a bigger effect than the core clock. It's not however true to say that the core clock has no effect. It boosts the ppd a bit and for me it seems to help me push the shader clock higher.

I might overclock my cards back up again now that 1.19 is being used. I clocked them down a bit when 1.15 came out because the ppd was higher than previous versions without heavy overclocking needed. I will probably go to 620/900/1870 on the GS.
 
Running the following here:

Core:Mem:shaders
680:800:1800

I just set it to that because its what the OC version of my card is set to and I figured the regular card could probably run at the OC speed and its been stable at that.

502:802:1895:86:4822ppd

will be taking it up at smaller intervals now - 2000 and 5k would be nice
Not bad for £30inc :D

I've kept my core / mem at factory specs, but pushed the shaders with good results.

BFG 8800 GTS 512 OC
Core / MEM / Shaders
Stock: 675 / 1940 / 1674: 4750PPD
Minimal: 675 / 1940 /1807: 5500 to 57000 PPD
Max: 675 / 1940 / 1905: 5800 to 6000 PPD
FANS: 60% Always
TEMPS: 62 Inner, 58 Outer.

I'm set at 1800 now as the WU / Core combinations have been playing havoc with stability. Last night I saw one WU hitting 6000 PPD at 1800, but that is rare on my set-up.

When I see the WU's and Core settle down, I'm going to flash the BIOS to something around 1850 to 1900 or so, as I dont like messing with Riva or NV clock tools.

Shaders max out around 1945 - with 20% eue's (was getting 85sec or 4879ppd on 5506's)
Dropped the core and memery and up the shaders but instant eue.
will stick with 1920 on the shaders now upping the core and memory.
525:802:1920:84:4937 :)

Also noticed that with the core set 100 below stock using pc has much greater effect.
At stock (575) using AutoCAD the step time for 5506 would go from 104sec to 105sec's
But at 469 it goes from 85secs to 89! (or 200ppd)
At core 525 it drops from 84 to 85 - happy days :D
