Publicnuisance Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I was using Rivatuner to try to overclock my video card and it wouldn't let me take the Core past 647 MHz (590 is stock for my card), anyone know why ? Technically I don't want to go furthur right now because I have hot 81C at my overclocked speeds but if I get better cooling later on I sure will want to. Basically if I took the core past 647 it wouldn't register the speed in any monitoring program I used (GPUZ and Rivatuner itself). On a side note, my temp while benching my card using Furmark (not futuremark) was 81C but the highest it went when playing Assassin's Creed and Crysis for 2 hours straight was 70C. Do you think I could safely push higher or should I get the temps down first ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

werty316 Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 (edited) How high can you take the core before the correct clock speed doesn't register? EVGA's Precision tool is also another alternative from RivaTuner. http://downloads.guru3d.com/EVGA-Precision...nload-2403.html Edited January 4, 2010 by werty316 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I take her to 648 or higher it will say 648 (or whatever higher number I chose) on the Rivatuner application but it will still say 647 on all monitoring applications I use. I will give these applications you guys suggested a try after work tonight. Thanks for the ideas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
