Overclocking 8800GTX no change?

[OmegaStalker]

Hi i bought a XFX 8800GTX and well it came clocked at the normal speeds 575mhz and so on, and well when i overclock it i got to 650mhz but i see no differance in performance and i play thinks like COD5WAW on high with a res of 1600x1050 so why do i not see an increase in the GPU?? can anyone help i used rivatuner and i overclocked my shader to 1400 and my memory to 900...

Try overclocking your CPU, I suspect it, rather than your graphics card may be the holdup here.

is there any vsync option you enabled?
what do you use to measure your fps?

 

[OmegaStalker]

umm well i turned v sync on and i use the far cry 2 benchmark

vsync- off,it locks your framerate to Your monitors refresh rate.Also make sure fan is at 100% while playing with that kind of oc.

yup vsync locks fps. disable it and you should see increase in fps.

Well it could be a CPU bottleneck.
