[Urbz]

i just got my pny gtx 560 ti oc runs at 850-core clock 1700-shader clock my setup its a gigabyte h61m board i5-2500k cpu and 750w sli ready pc power and cooling psu...never overclocked in my life .
i need help step by step to oc my gtx560....i did download msi afterburner and im ready eager to learn.
pls for all of u whom this is a small thing 4 u help me with...thx.

Just bump up the core clock ~5-10MHz at a time, run Furmark for a while and see if it crashes, if it doesn't, bump it up some more until it does crash, then back it off 2 steps and run Furmark for an hour or so, and if it passes, do the same with the memory, then go game.

That's how I did it to my 460 anyways.

stability test extreme burn mode ? in furmark?

 

[Urbz]

i did 903-core....1806-shader on furmark extreme burn mode for 10 min my temps where 77-78c max....it is good? should i continue pushing the core? right now im where the pny gtx 560 ti oc2 is....pls give me some feedback..

 

[Urbz]

925-1850 ----10min---77-78c

 

[Urbz]

951-1902----10 min---75-77c

till now i had max fps now it drops to avg. should i stop here?

 

[Urbz]

973-1946---10min----74-76c
avg fps-61.....min dropped to 59 fps....seriously nobody says nothing?
should i stop because i dont have max fps anymore?

 

[Urbz]

will somebody say something?..lol....or its so obvious and i dont see it cause im NOOB?

i have a gigabyte gtx560ti and i cant get it stable past 950 ive got the voltage at 1.112,
i think what you have achieved seems to be around ceiling for these cards,
i know some people have got them to 1000 but mine wont unless im missing somthing as well

ok furmark sux.....i did the heaven d11 benchmark...and 900-1800 was the last setting witch did it smoothly....nothing above...give me small lines its not smooth
so looks like my pny gtx 560 ti oc....maxed out becomes a pny gtx 560 ti oc2...all at stuck voltage 1012
donkey what u used as testing?

Nobody is helping you because you do not need help.

As for your benchmarking, try benching several times at the same speeds.
if you are always posting lower minimum frame rates then I would look at keeping the clocks lower to gain a higher Min FPS but since you are benching I would look at maxing out the card then back it off.

spentshells wowowwwwwwwwww thank you.....u know maybe u guys think i dont need help..but i do, u see in my posts i did the furmark 1...than the heaven dx11 as benchmark...nobody told me if my fps drops i should stop....i could push the card much more probably over 1000mhz...but my fps would be bad...
now im stable at 900mhz in heaven dx11...runs smooth.....
now question...should i start mess with voltage?...or not?

 

[Urbz]

looks like after 5 times heaven dx11...at 900x1800 its stable and my fps its 51 steady
thank you spentshells, it meant alot ur imput.
