EVGA Precision dose not suck like the others have said it the straps.

FYI

Precision IS Riva for all intents and purposes.

That hardware monitoring tool that is built into precision and rivatuner are showing your actual clocks. You can set it to what ever you want in precision and those clocks shown int the graph are going to be what the card is really running. Even Gpu-z is off, it will show your requested clocks, the ones that set the slider to.

Look at the link in my sig and you will see how the straps work. It's mainly for shader straps, but you'll get the idea.

Wait, is this a 9800GTX+?
Cause i can OC mine to 822/2012/1180 stable =\
So then theres something wrong

Not every single card clocks the same.
Just because his doesn't clock to yours doesn't mean something is wrong with his card.

Actually, Precision is reporting wrong clocks... atleast for me too. In Precision it goes on straps. However, Gpu-z is detecting every single mhz i put on the shader, the core and the memory. So basically, people that use Evga's Precision to monitor their clocks, will never know what hit them. Use Gpu-z for monitoring, while you clock your card.

As long as I can get my video card to do better I'm happy, Evga works fine for me.

This post gave me and my entire IT staff a huge laugh. I find more amusing that you are attempting an overclock on your GPU not knowing the straps.....

Research first then tinker....

Here is your straps just to make it easy for you:

You're just as misinformed as the OP
