Geforce 3 Overclocked to 240 core / 540 mem Perfectly Stable

[FireStarOmega]

has anyone been able to get the Geforce 3 any higher?

 

[pidge]

The highest I got my card was 235MHz core and 550MHz memory. I am using a Visiontek video card. I took off the ram heatsinks and applied the thermal tape to them instead.

Wow! That's a pretty decent overclock there I'd say!

I wish I had the $$$ to buy a GF3.

So you think that if I alter the board I can get more out of it?
I haven't touched the board, I am just using the Coolbits Tab!

Heh. I get really great performance out of my card. I would be happy with what you got. You don't want to ruin your brand new card, do you? I never killed any of my video cards but I have destroyed a couple of processors before.

 

[FireStarOmega]

True, But I had my card for a few months and plus I got this card real cheap from my friend. less than half price
Plus I want to push this card to it's max.
Also anyone know anything about the NV25?

I can do 240/540 if by stable you mean loop 2K1 for an hour.

 

[FireStarOmega]

Well I have played serious 3D games for hours on end without a hitch.
So I call that Really stable!

That's a pretty amazing OC. What brand of GF3 is it? I have my Visiontek GF3 running at 230/510 and it's perfectly stable. If I bump it up a little more it'll only run for a little while before things get funky.

225/510 is the best I can do. And I have a BlueOrb w/ArcticSilver on it, too... I only gained 5mhz on that upgrade.

 

[FireStarOmega]

I have a Generic card. I have made no alterations no add in or anything of the such. The card is stock!
It's a great card!

Wing, never ever , ever ever ever ever use a BLORB for overclocking, they suck and i don't care if they came in Yellow in or pink. The performance on those Blorbs will never match the Cu-copper HSF for videocards @ 2cootek.com. IMHO since i tried both.

 

[FireStarOmega]

Those Orbs suck. I have never seen any of those orbs do a decent job!
and like I said, I have my Geforce 3 Stock, nothing added or removed!
