Overclocking My Card...

[DarthInsinuate]

am I supposed to clock up both equally, one at a time, or just one?

i've read contradicting articles, namely Tweak3D and Tweaktown - one says change them equally, the other says just adjust the memory clock

any o/c gurus have an opinion on this?

i norm overclock the gpu a bit, and the memroy more then the gpu as the gpu can generate alot of heat so i have found that increasing the memory more then the gpu better, they say to be safer (as far as damage goes) you are better to just adjust the memory

Firstly, I need to know which card you are referring to...

my old TNT2 M64 - i don't know what manufacturer, it just came with the machine

To be honest, that card is... dated, you'd be better off upgrading.

yeah, yeah I know - i'm gonna wait till memory prices come down and overhaul the whole system


anyways I got hold of 3DMark 2001 and did a little scientific experiment:-

First I clocked up the core by 36Mhz and left the memory as default - this gave me a 3DMark of around 800.
Then I then clocked the memory by 36Mhz and set the core to default - this gave me a 3DMark of around 1020.

Conclusion: core = :( , memory = :)

Agreed, TnT2 means time for an upgrade........
