Can someone tell me what would be considered a good boost but yet safe settings to overclock my BFG 8800GTS OC to?
I've used ATITool 0.27 to OC it, and when I let ATITool find the max core it got flaky at about 637 with small yellow blocks showing up in the 3Dview and once it hit about 648 my screen would blank out to black and flash in and out everytime ATITool would up it a few more MHz. I finally got worried and powered off the computer since I couldnt abort the test at that point.
I've currently got it set to Core: 625.00MHz and Memory of 900MHz. The 3D View has been running for aproximately 30 minutes without any errors and the temp is showing up between 79c and 81c and usually sitting at 80c.
I wonder if these settings would be considered safe or if this card is known to be able to go higher then this or should even be lower then this. This card is utilizing the stock BFG cooling system.
Thanks,
