I have been messing around with riva tuner and i just wanted to know what everyone Ocing with the new GTS was gettin to run stable without crashing in 3d Mark 06 or in crysis. I was stable and cool at 750/1900/1015/ but i want to know if i can push my card even more, 3d mark crashes when i set the clocks to 800/2000/1050. i just want to get the maximum most stable OC from this card, so i do not have to worry about any adjustments for a year. Please post ur best stable OC, thanks
You cant really ask for the clocks of their cards because each chip is kinda uniqe, though you should get closer clocks. Anyway, just try with low-increasments everytime and do the tests while watching the temps. Once you feel its not stable, crashing or it has high temps, lower your clocks and do the test for long period to make sure that the new clocks are fine.

What temps should it be at? My card runs 63 Celsius in idle. Is that bad? What max degress in Celsius a video card can go?
Okay finally got a good OC, 800/1960/1050 with a 3d mark of 11207 from 10928. the key was the shader clock, go to high and it crashes regardless of if the core clock is set lower. 3d mark crashed when it was 780/1980/1030, i dropped the shader clock and turned up the core and now im stable. ill try crysis, stalker, and lost planet later on today to see if it runs well in games. this card is amazing, i hear ppl have been pushin core clocks up to 820 on stock cooler, i might try and go a little higher, but im pretty satisfied at the moment.
personally i have the same card and at stock i find it good for crysis, just curious how many extra fps you get once you oc it. let me know as i've been considering oc'ing mine to see if i can get my video running a little bit smoother.

Yeah 63 C is not too high, because these cards are designed to go a lot higher about 110 C before they crash. but if i were u i would use riva tuner to turn up my gpu fan to about 60% idle. Im running around 50 C idle 800/1960/1050. and about 56 C while running 3d mark. my fan throttles up to 80% when the temp goes above 55 C. Riva tuner is a great progam needless to say.
Well i tried 800/1050/1960 for 2 hours in crysis very high and thought id cracked it.... until BSOD!
No problems in 3dmark06 etc at those clocks so make sure u all play a few hours of crysis before you tell yourself your overclock is secure!

Yeap you are totally right, same thing happened to me worked through 3d mark, and crashed in games, crysis, kane and lynch. i had to turn it down to 750/1900/1015. using nvidia driver 169.32. hopefully when they come out with better drivers, i can push the card a little more, just for fun, not really about real in game performance.
