** The Official 8800GT 512/256mb Review/Overclocking Thread **

Any ideas what sort of clocks i should be aiming for core/mem/shaders?

Rivatuner is not showing the overclocking options, or the temp monitor options weirdly.

Blimey, and i run 1440x900, thought crysis would bring it to its knees on high! Now waits for order, tick tock and order Status: In our warehouse queue doh!
 
OMG Asgard you sure its a GT you got in your rig and not a GTX by mistake :p, I seriously cant wait after hearing that!.
 
Just got mine :D

BFG OC version :



I'll edit this post with benchies when ive ran through a few :)

OK : First few results :

3DM05 : 17773

3DM06 : 11002. SM2 5231, SM3/HDR 4810, CPU 2590

UT3 Demo runs very smooth @ 1680x1050 at the max details it will let me select never drops below 60 FPS

Right now some more :

COD4 Demo averages 35FPS @ 1680x1050, with max details it will let me choose and 4xAA ( or AF cant remeber now lol )

HL2 EP2 : 1680x1050, All on high, 16xAF and 8xMSAA averages around 55FPS

Now the Crysis demo is a killer. To get any kind of playable framerates at 1680x1050 i had to turn off AA altogether and set some of the GFX options to medium. Not that suprised since seeing the thread about it being an 8800GTX killer.

Its not noisy either apart from the whoosh when it starts up.

Tested using 169.02 on Vista 32

Pretty pleased with it although one strange thing is my PC wouldnt boot with SLI switch card set to single card mode, i had to flip it to Dual card mode in order to get my system to POST.

Is there any way i can check what PCI-E bus speed im running, ie, x1, x8 or x16
