I never OC'd any of my GPU's but I'd very much like to see what I can gain from this one....I heard that BFG is amongst cloking-friendly cards, but I wouldn't want to undertake this without advice...
I have RivaTuner installed, but never used it before....
Can someone plese instruct me how to SAFELY OC my 8800GTS a bit just to see how much I can gain, (step by step, as if I'm midly retarded...) :D
Thnx in advance!

Its easy as pie. Simply raise your clock by a small margin say 10mhz then run a 3dmark test or play a game for a short period of time keeping an eye on the temps and if you don't artifact then try another 10 and so on and so forth. If/when you do artifact drop 1 of your clocks back to stock it doesnt matter which to test which one is causing them. Which ever one is causing them has hit the wall and you may be able to raise the other one higher. Hope this helps

Thanks. Wich utility would be the best? RivaTuner?
I'm on Vista so Coolbits doesn't work for me in new Control Panel.
