8800gs

[candle_86]

I got it, now lets OC it with stock cooling, is everyon ready, this is the 580M, i asked Wiz if he could get me a GPU-z that supported it, maybe a beta, but for right now i hope ntune screen is proof enough. Getting drivers for it now.

its now a 680M hehe, who wants 3dmarks now?

xfx 8800gs normal edition?is the fan as loud as ppl say it is?also,can you go past 800mhz ram clock?

 

[candle_86]

havnt tried yet, tring to find a way to add this card into rivatuner but have no idea how

max stable OC, not to bad, 1400 to 1800mhz on the memory and 580 to 700 on the core with stock cooling, hits 79C full load

Good purchase this XFX 8800 GS 580
The fan is realy loud ! But good performances : now, it's realy stable @ 710 ( core ) / 2000 ( memory ) and 1728 for the shader.
For the shaders, i took the list on the forum : ... 1512-1566-1620-1674-1728-1782-1836-1890-1944-1998-2052-2106 ...
I controled this frequency with PC Wizard 2008 : if i take less than 1728, it's recognized as 1674Mhz there is a rule for these shaders.

My results for these frequencies ( with C2D E6750 stock and 1GB PC6400 G-Skill @4-4-4-12 ) :
- Aquamark 3 : 154.139 FPS ( GFX : 29889 pts / CPU : 15912 pts )
- 3D Mark 2005 : 16910
- 3D Mark 2006 : 10900

Max temp : 61°C ( fan @ 100% ).

All O/C realized with Riva Tuner v2.0.6 ( with modified line for G92 GPU ).
Frequencies control with GPU-Z 0.1.6 ( fully operational with my 8800 GS ).

Better scores are possible : I made 16939 ( 3DM05 ), 10997 ( 3DM06 ) and 154,354 FPS ( AM3 ) @720 ( core ) /2000 ( memory )/1800 ( shader ) but it runs bad on game ( freezes ).
EDIT : Drivers v. 169.32 for XP.

its my sempron holding me back, but shoot me your moded rivatuner, cause i have no idea how to do that

havnt tried yet, tring to find a way to add this card into rivatuner but have no idea how

Is it a G92? If so, GPU-Z will give you the device ID....last 4 digits, then just like the 8800GTS mod, go to Rivatuners Config file and add the line using the GS ID.

 

[candle_86]

where do i add it, the device id is 10DE-0606

grr, its the sempy it has to be

what diffrent will an x2 4200 make, i just borrowed the money for one. Getting it in 30 minutes from the local shop for 65 bucks. Will it help alot or barly at all?

There's the moding operation :
Edit the file " rivatuner.cfg " with wordpad : change the line " G92 = 610h-61Fh " by " G92 = 600h-60Fh,610h-61Fh " , save and close.
Start Riva Tuner 2.06 and enjoy the 8800 GS is recognized
As this, all G92 will be recognized.

It will do a great difference : your GFX card will be better exploited.

lol @ 720/1800/1800 my score jumped from 4816 to 4821, i do indeed belive a bottleneck is present lol

Have you disconnect vertical synchro in your drivers ? An error i made on my first O/C ( Ge Force 5600 ... 4 years ago ).
Some top frequencies starting 8800 GS XXX version :

Crazy

For GPU fan speed, it's fixed on 100% ( 2 pins connector ). Riva Tuner does not modified this speed even if i heard a difference between 30% and 100% tunings.

 

[candle_86]

say what, vertical sync is off in drivers lol. I see it hit 70 some odd FPS in canyon flight once or twice lol

That's strange. The 8800 GS can burn scores with or without O/C.
My OS is XP Pro SP2 and the drivers are the 169.32, special made for 8800 GS.
There's no frequency limite for the core.
On the over hand, the 1.4ns memory chips ( 700 Mhz ) are a serious brake to O/C Impossible running stable @ more than 1000Mhz ( 2000 effective ) contrary to Samsung 1ns chips ( 1000Mhz ).
Loud fan is the over black point of the XFX. For O/C, the e-vga seems to be a better choice.
In France, i had no choice ( XFX standard or XXX version ).

 

[candle_86]

just got my x2 installed and windows installed the CPU gonna restart and run 06

 

[Titus]

Rock and roll !!

 

[candle_86]

4816 to 7840 just by replacing the sempron lol

4816 to 7840 just by replacing the sempron lol

Yeah
So, a little O/C for your CPU to bring your score to 10800 3Dmarks
Put your drivers on " High performance " and the AA on " controled by application " to stop braking tunings.

What's your driver ?

 

[candle_86]

ok lol, well my board doesnt let me control voltage sadly, im gonna get a tforce later on lol

 

[Titus]

I have my response : http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/6rk2x/

Try my tunings : 710 (core )/1000 (mem )/ 1728 ( shader ).
in sprite no additionnal case fan, i've never up to 61°C
