Guest ender707 Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 That OC would melt my ASUS G1. Idles at 76C, 95C under gaming load with 520 core/ 760 mem. Temps seem normal (For ASUS G1's anyway). The Dells must have way better cooling than the ASUS. I have read that the card shuts down at 124C though, and other people say that their card underclocks at 100C. Both were ASUS owners too, so I am not too concerned with my 95C. Oh and my 3dmark06 score is 4280 with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Crogge Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I have a Dell Insprion 1720 Notebook with Core2Duo (2x2Ghz), 2GB RAM and a Geforce 8600GT DDR-2 Card. I overclocked it today to 635 (675) / 435 (Havent made much with the Memory yet) and it work fine so far. I ran 3x times 3DMarku 2006 and get about 4050~ Points (I guess it can be more when I disable backgrounds apps etc). Anyway the RivaTuner Monitoring confuse me a little bit... It has like every hour a 5-10 second "Lagg-Spike" and I see in RivaTuner that the Graphic-Card underclock for a second without any reason? It do that at the normal frequency, too! And another strange thing like someone else here posted already, the memory go up to 800MHz when I go into 2D Mode thats DDR-3 like! I guess its just a visual mistake of RivaTuner? Thanks in advance, Crogge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackankh Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 hey i am using this gpu too with an acer gemstone 5920G..but i can't seem to OC more than 530/500 as my driver will crash..what could be the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CronoX Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 you have a 1720....the air in the case is more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolcop06 Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 (edited) Highest overclock i've ever tested was 685/1030/1370. That was completely stable in BF2 and max temps were 84c. Then tested those clocks in Fallout 3, had to lower down the clocks to 660/1030/1320. This is now the setting i keep it on for ALL games, completely stable 8600M GT GDDR3. Max temps i've seen are 81c GPU and 66c CPU after over 4 hours+ gaming on my XPS M1530. Edited November 15, 2008 by coolcop06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not meant to be abrasive, but if you are not running the standard resolution for 3dmark06, your score isn't accurate since it isn't standardized to the resolution most people are running the program at.

gtnrkt Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 3DMark06 seems to change default resolutions on different screens : on my 1024x768 screen it runs on 1024x768, on my 1920x1200, it runs on 1280x1024. Thats why it seems like laptops with high resolution screens have less 3Dmark06 score with default settings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Exile Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Hello, i have been using DOX 178.24 drivers for a while using RivaTuner for overclocking So far ive been overclocking my 8600M GT 256MB DDR2 card from 475/400 to 575/450, when overclocking i always force the fan to 100% (Using I8kFan) My temp even when playing for an hour doesnt go higher than 59c, but when i try to overclock a bit higher the memory clock i get weird game glitches (I guess thats because its an DDR2) and the core clock i can push it up to 600, but sometimes tha games act a bit weird, The weird thing is that, my card temp never reaches 70c or 80c because i force the fan to 100%, so i was wondering if changing the drivers would give better overclocking results? Also sometimes the card downclocks itself, and i have to restart the laptop to overclock again, could that be because of the drivers too? Then again the card temp never goes very hot (58-59c temp max) Thanks for the help =D Running Windows Vista SP1 x86 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zipper Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 The temperatures need not always to go very high when the driver fails. Probably another may clock a little higher but the difference isn't too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nvHaku Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Which driver are you using? I installed dox 182.05 yesterday my temp reach 80c during 3dmark06 run and it is on the default clock. best fps during the test is 22 and worse is 5fps not including the cpu fps test. 182.05 3dmark06 = 3227 thanks Hello, i have been using DOX 178.24 drivers for a while using RivaTuner for overclockingSo far ive been overclocking my 8600M GT 256MB DDR2 card from 475/400 to 575/450, when overclocking i always force the fan to 100% (Using I8kFan) My temp even when playing for an hour doesnt go higher than 59c, but when i try to overclock a bit higher the memory clock i get weird game glitches (I guess thats because its an DDR2) and the core clock i can push it up to 600, but sometimes tha games act a bit weird, The weird thing is that, my card temp never reaches 70c or 80c because i force the fan to 100%, so i was wondering if changing the drivers would give better overclocking results?

Guest Guest Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Why don't you guys not lower core clock a bit and then add some extra MHz to shader domain? I think that high core clock setting maybe stopping you from getting more out your shader domain. It is surely better to have a lower core clock for, let's say, 30 MHz and, in the same time, to have shader domain clock increased for 100 MHz. I got DELL Vostro 1500 w/ 8600M GT 256 DDR2 and my stable clocks are core 594, shader 1426, mem 525, although riva tuner hardware monitoring graph says that I have 648, 1566, 525. Why I set my core clock to 594 and riva tuner graph shows me 648? Where the difference come from? Which value is true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
