Due to the release of the 8800GT and crysis I feel it's time to take extreme measures to overclock my GTS even farther. Right now my max core clock is 621Mhz and I am shooting for around 700Mhz with the volt mod.
I tried the pencil mod already but I couldn't get the resistance low enough due to the resistance starting out extremely low already (stock was 33 ohms, but could only get it to 31.5 ohms with a pencil). And somehow that change was not enough to bump the core voltage at all. So tomorrow I'm getting a 1k ohm variable resistor and soldering it on ![]() Here's a little graph I made showing VR setting vs. total parallel resistance (given by the equation y = 1/((1/31.5)+(1/x)) ![]() Pics and results tomorrow after school.

lmao, thanks. If anything goes terribly wrong I've got lifetime warranty + cross shipping from evga. At the very worst I'll have to wait a few days.

Project delayed due to radio shack not carrying a 1k resistor

It works!
Before: 621 Core 1458 Shader 1.28v 11709 3dmark06 After: 648 Core 1512 Shader 1.35v 11974 3dmark06 So I guess my card was a pretty dud overclocker. I went up to 1.44v but that still didn't make it stable at 675mhz core (next incriment up )

Nice work! Soldering and high priced precious components do not mix well, especially in my hands...
