didnt know you could unlock pipelines on a 6600GT..i think thats only with the 6800.

You cannot unlock any pipelines on the 6600gt.

It will give you the option in Rivatuner, but it doesn't do anything. Trust me, you cannot unlock anything.

Re: 6600gt overclock

you can only unlock pipes on the 6800vanilla, agp cards. The GT has them already unlocked and the GS, doesnt have any hidden, along with the PCI express 6800. overclocking the 6600gt might help, but, the clock speeds are already pretty high. 500/1000 if i remember correctly. o wait you already did nvm.

Re: 6600gt overclock

i have a 6600le how would i overclock that , i have looked through the setting and can not find anything to do it with , i do not even see a temperature control on it. Would i need an earlier driver version to do this?

Re: 6600gt overclock

first, I would suggest getting the latest drivers from the nvidia website if you dont already have them, this would be 81.98. then, go to www.google.com, and seach "coolbits". Click the very first link and look for the download hyperlink. once you have succesfully downloaded coolbits, run the .exe file, this will ask you if you want to add a certain line to the registry. hit yes. once you have done this, you can delete coolbits from wherever you downloaded it to. open your drivers "right click on your desktop>Nvidia dsiplay>your moniter name" and it should open them. look for tempature and clock frequencies. on the clock frequencies is where you overclock and tempature is, well the tempature. but dont just go overclocking. make sure you move them up in slow incriments, and any game begins to have artifacts I would suggest bringing them back down. at most I would say 75mhz is the most you should overclock with that video card. but im not an expert on that. have fun
