EVGA e-GeForce 8800 768MB GTX, and best way to overclock? - 2008/06/16 01:00
Hi guys, I was curious to know what is the best way to overclock my GeForce 8800 GTX so it can have the best performance possible? I'm a newbie at this but I do know I need to use NiBiTor v4.1 to make a BIOS file that I can flash to my GTX afterwards. So in order to do this first, I need to see the maximum speed my card can take by using a program like RivaTuner correct?
One question though, how do I know what is the maximum potential of my card? Do I have to test it out, every time I increase the clock by 50MHz in a game? Or can I just press the test button? Lastly, so is it dangerous to use for example, another BIOS such as from an Ultra card? Personally I don't really care about using any other BIOS since I don't see the real point or maybe I'm just not grasping the idea about it yet.
All I want is a card that will be overclocked so I can get better performance. I remember reading that I can also downclock the card or something along those lines so that if I'm not playing games it won't actually work as much. Anyhow, thanks in advance!
