6600gt stock clockspeed?

[klaklakla]

ive heard from many sources that the stock clockspeed for 6600gt pci-e is 500 core and 1000 mem.
well, ive recently downloaded rivatuner, and went to the overclocking section. my 6600gt pci-e was clocked (stock) at 300/1000.
now, was that just a factory error?
at this point, i think i should mention that my card is an xpertvision. im just sayin that maybe xpertvision clocks their cards a bit lower than standard, in which case would really suck.

now say, my first theory is correct, does that mean i can safely crank my core speed straight up to 500? (which i wouldnt do if anyone said yes anyway)

OR, if my second theory (the xpertvision clocking cards lower one) is correct, there should be a reasonable explanation behind this, right? i'd like to know what that is.

OR, is the 6600gt pci-e's stock core clock actually 300?

hope someone answers soon!!

edit:hmm.. maybe i shouldve posted this in the graphics and displays section instead of overclocking.. >.<

standard core/mem clocks on the 6600gt seem to be 500/1000

That's what I think, as well.

i have an agp 6600gt, which has the stock speeds 500/900, but for pci-e that's correct, it should be 500/1000. make sure that you aren't looking at the 2D clock speed though, i believe 300 is what my card clocks down to in 2D

yeh same in 2d my card has lower clock speeds(energy saving feature). download rivatuner and check the 3d speeds or just in the nvidia driver pannel. Peace.

zomg. im such an idiot. i just realised that i had to press 'Enable driver-level hardware clocking'. i am sorry i wasted your time everyone!! >.<

i sure made a pretty big fool of myself -_______-
