GF3 Ti Questions

[SithSolo1]

What are the default clocks of the Ti 200 and 500?
Whats the best Ti 200 for OCing?
And finally how do you OC it? (I guess you just use powerstrip but i dunno)

The Ti200 is clocked at 175/400.
The Ti500 is clocked at 240/500.

You can use coolbits to enable the overclocking tab.

There's quite a few program to oc graphics cards with, I use PowerStrip myself but RivaTuner and NVmax are also very popular.

There's several Ti200 that oc well, the most poplar and successfull being the Gainward Ti200 450 (or something like that).
I have a Palit Daytona GeForce3 Ti200, the cheapest Ti200, and it is oc'ed to 230/530 and performs the same as a Ti500 (according to MadOnions web-site).

I've got a Gainward running at 260/540 on stock cooling with no artifacts at all. I did two 24 hour long runs of just the 3dmark games and had no problems at all. Very nice considering how far back it's default is. I was a little disappointed when my ram maxed at 540, though. I was "hoping" for 560. Takes one lucky sob to get a card that can hit 260/560 with no artifacts, though.

Nice oc Demonic, I'm not so impressed with your ram though, the Gainward has 4ns ram and that is guaranteed to hit above 500mhz I think (can't remember the mhz for each ns, someone who can please state 'em), 540 doesn't seemlike that much for the ram. 260 for the core on the other hand is great.
I tried with my Blorb (Blue Orb) on the gpu of mine but it couldn't run faster than before, but when I took the Blorb off I noticed that the paste hadn't touched the core of the hsf at all, so I'm gonna lap the Blorb and try again, as it could cool it as good as stock with improper contact I think it'll go further when it touches the gpu properly. The ram on my card is 5ns which is why I'm so impressed with it hitting 530Mhz.
