My overclocked 8800gtx 3dmark results on overlocked Conroe - Overclock.net

Well, I haven't owned a Nvidia card in four years, since I bought a gf4 4200 that died for absolutely no reason, and I am very impressed with this card. It overclocks like any enthusiast processor should. I may try and pencil mod the memory later, it may just artifact up, but worth a try....

The only bump in the road was the fact that the card is so BIG. I had two drill two new holes and move my water pump because of the size of it. I was suprised, big card.

Rivatuner would not convince my card to change the fan speed when I set it to do so, so I set the fan to %100 myself.

My nice cam is still in the mail, I got this thing at a pawn shop.

Something to put this card to good use.

Wow dude. Thats some sweet scores

Distraught_Youth · 12-14-06

HAHAHA You spend 2000+ on a system....and you have a 35.00 monitor?

Wow....someone has weird priorities

Mister Crowley · 12-14-06

It's all about the resolution to me

that monitor cost just over $150

Besides the fact that I can't afford a large LCD (not any time soon anyway) I like the refresh rates of crt. Theres absolutely no trailing or luminous darkness.

I think I'm gonna pencil the vmem up some later today, gotta enjoy it a little first.

Distraught_Youth · 12-14-06

Very good line of thinking. I suppose if you have the desk space then it's ok to have a large CRT. I had a 21 inch CRT..... Yeah it SURE didnt fit...

Nothing good fits in or beside my Computer

I popped in a 8800GTS and I have to have a molex to PCI-e adapter as it wont fit

Kudos on the KILLER scores...Anything over 10,000 blows my mind with the power,....

Nice one mate. Nice and informative....The Core on that thing is massive.

Mister Crowley · 12-14-06

Thanks

Ya, the card is a monster as far as size is concerned, the ihs is thick too, I think it's probably keeping the temps up some, with new as5 and %100 fan it will still get up to about 75c.

aside from putting a 600 doller card down on a couch surface... someone never had static take a component...

everything looks sweet

Pick any FPS within the last three years or coming out soon, I will probably play it

I'm playing quake 4 right now. Smooth as silk at 1920 1440 max settings with 4xAA. 8xAA only makes the fps go down a bit, but at 4xAA, the fps is topped out and doesn't change much, as though my cpu or motherboard or something is a bottleneck. Or maybe it just doesn't move, i dunno
