nvidia 8xxx series shader OC

[looqas]

The newest RivaTuner gives (also nTune might. I'm not sure) the option to OC shaders independently of the GPU. Have anyone tried his hand in this yet?

I read a review about this brand new factory OCed 8800GTS 320Mb which had whopping 650 Mhz GPU, 2GHz memory and 1,5GHz shaders and got interested. The temperatures were around 68C @ 100%, but boy the thing was fast. Almost on par with the default 8800GTX.

So I suspect I can do a bit more and try also the shader OC, but I haven't really needed to make the most of my card since I play at 1280x1024 and the thing is plenty fast for that.

Hmm, might try this for the Crysis beta and see what happens.

If your FPS isn't higher than the $$ you spent on the card, then no .

^I'm gonna use that. I like your reasoning.

As for the shader OC, nice stuff and very interesting. I can't wait to see what I can do once an 8800 GT comes out. Very Cool.

question wich card is the best one for good performance etc because i dont want a crappy one but it also may not be to expensive :P

At the moment the 8800 GTS 320 is the best bang for the buck; however, that will probably change come Monday when the 8800 GT is released. From the way it looks the GT will take top bang for the buck value at $250 for the 512 mb model.
