Hi all. I bought my eVGA 6600gt AGP a month or so ago and I have been pretty happy. I could OC it to about 525,1050 before artifacting started. I just bought a vf700 and hooked it up and I am amazed. I keep bring it up and up. Right now I am at 594,1188! My Aquamark scores have increased from 48,000 to 63,000 and 3DMark05 is over 4000!

I definately did not expect that. I see no artifacting in games or ATITool. Is this normal for a 6600gt to clock so high? The most surprising thing to me is the RAM. I have no sinks on it (wouldn't fit under vf700) but they still OC 288 MHz.

Also, I noticed when I bumped it from (590,1180) to (594, 1188), my Aquamark score jumped from 55,000 to over 63,000... Is there any reason for this? the only thing I can think of is some background apps, but I know F@H, McAfee, and Windows Spyware Beta were all running. Seems strange...

well ur ocing it so it will do better in the aquamark and 3dmark tests. btw was that 3dmark 05 score is pretty good for the 6600 gt. my 6800 gets an average 9000 on 03 version. i have to try the 05 now

I just didn't expect such a big boost with a 4,8 MHz increase... I think it may have been because some processes were running in the background for the first...

I have 03 on a disk smewhere so I can run that too...
Edit: 9510, but that i with 350, downloading the patch now...
