I am new here, but I really need help, so I hope someone will find a good solution. First of all, I bought Galaxy 8800GTS two days ago. Of course I want to achieve better performance. nTune sux, so I decided to find better tool and I ended up with ATI Tool (works with nvidia cards). My standard clock is 513/792, so I tried 520/792. I click on "Set clock", then scan for any artifacts and everything was flying so I decided to reboot my comp. Funny, I opened Ati Tool and... there are my standard clocks (513/792)! I repeated this steps and... the same situation! All the time! I don't know what's goin on. This means that I must modify the clocks everytime since I turn on my comp? I hope someone will help me. I've got new ATI Tool (0.26) and nvidia drivers. I read a lot about overclocking 8800s and a lot of people had managed to overclock these cards. I hope You will help me! Thanks in advance and sorry for my English!
^^ beat me to it lol
Right put the clock settings you want and save it - go into settings - startup, tick the load profile, and put in the profile you want to start up all the time.
Thanks guys, I have done that, everywhere is "520/792" but the thing is the "Current clocks" sign is always saying "Core 513 ; Mem 792". Maybe my card has got blockades or something like that? Besides, I read an article about the same card as mine (also Galaxy) and guys have changed clocks without problem but I can't contact them via PM. http://overclock.pl/index.php/arty [...] _jak_GTX,3
EDIT/ Ok, everything works fine now. I've used a Find max. core function and the clocks (Current clock and sliders) changed without problem (I stopped though on 600mhz, becuase I decided to do a format and install Win again and try to continue tests on "clean" system).
I'm running my evga 8800gts 640mb at 630/2000 with no problems at all. You should be able to go a lot higher then you are at right now. Use atitool to artifact check to make sure that your settings are ok. I would also watch the gpu temps along the way.
