Possible to overclock dual 6800's?

Yes. Just watch out for temps. TBH, i don't think they'll last. I would just sell it on for 5 and keep the other one for physx and get a decent card.
Seriously - if they don't do what you need, UPGRADE!!!

If I had 2 cards do I have to uninstall both drivers..?


Also, who the hell is going to buy these lol...



edit > I cannot find Xtreme G 75.90 drivers anywhere

Things move very fast in the GPU industry and seven years is very long.

The 6800s are pretty much old tech now and even a single modern low/mid end card would easily match both cards.
 
I used to use rivatuner to clock mine back in the day.

My 6800 used to clock like crazy :D (could hit 100C tho while gaming)

You won't manage that kinda clock on a regular 6800 tho.

EDIT: One thing to check - I can't remember which cards could and couldn't now - some of the 6800 you could unlock some extra pipelines with a software patch in rivatuner for a free performance boost.

Those 6800's really need to go. They are beaten by even low end cards nowadays. Treat yourself to a modern card that will perform massively better and use less power.
