Could those of you who overclock your Geforce3 post your highest stable core/memory speed? No fancy cooling or anything, I just need info from those using the stock GPU HSF and RAM-sink cooling. I myself is currently running my GF3 at 250/570. I noticed going from 250/550 to 250/570 didn't yield any better results in 3DMark 2001. Moving the core speed bar in RivaTuner higher gave an exclamation symbol so I was wondering if I should go higher for the core speed.

Thanks for your inputs.

<< what CPU do u use what 3d mark are u getting?> >>


With my AMD 1GHz@1177MHz running Win2K Pro SP2 and 512MB RAM, I get about 6544 with the 250/570 setting using 21.81 drivers. The stock speed for my Gainward GF3 gave me a 6093 in 3DMark 2001. BTW, nice name you got there :)
