This can differ, 1505 Mhz was the highest, but with certain titles that dropped to 1450 MHz or even lower.

I really wouldn't know why you need to overclock today's tested card anyway, but we'll still show it.Īll in all. Carefully find that limit and then back down at least 20 MHz from the moment you notice an artifact. Usually when you are overclocking too hard, it'll start to show artifacts, empty polygons or it will even freeze. Usually when your 3D graphics start to show artifacts such as white dots ("snow"), you should back down 25 MHz and leave it at that. More advanced users push the frequency often way higher.

Example: If your card runs at 600 MHz (which is pretty common these days) then I suggest that you don't increase the frequency any higher than 30 to 50 MHz. I always tend to recommend to novice users and beginners, to not increase the frequency any higher than 5% on the core and memory clock. It sounds hard, but it can really be done in less than a few minutes. Overclocking: By increasing the frequency of the videocard's memory and GPU, we can make the videocard increase its calculation clock cycles per second. We can really recommend it, download here.

One of the best tools for overclocking Nvidia and AMD videocards is our own AfterBurner which will work with 90% of the graphics cards out there. Typically you can tweak on core clock frequencies and voltages. As most of you know, with most video cards you can apply a simple series of tricks to boost the overall performance a little.
