Lets see what resolution that was at

Also if you get the current version of 3dmark06, that score would without a doubt be #1 in the category on orb, so this leads me to believe that was at 1024x768

You guys should try doing more memory overclocking, I believe these little memory chips can hit much more than what you guys have now. I did a 20 minutes scan on 2300Mhz effective and no problems at all, although temps did start to climb to mid-70's. Just tested 2400Mhz effective for 5 minutes and going, will get a screenshot of everything once I get this room cleaned before my parents wake up, and then I'll install 3DMark06.

Thats some nice ram clocking

I just seem to have bad luck with ringbus ram memory. My x1900xtx always got low memory clocks and my 8800gtx is acting the same way, errors when artifact scanning, even with added memory voltage.

I think a ringbus ram system might be like the weakest link idea, a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link, or chip, or soldier, or whatever

Alright So I finally overclocked the 8800gts and here is what I got with 3d mark 06. Let me know how that score is.

Core : 620Mhz
Memory : 875Mhz

[matthmaroo]

what temp is the max you would want a 8800gtx , mine 640/1100 at 86c stable

will this temp slowly kill my card


also what is a good resolution to run 3dmark 06?
