Well, I'm stumped... Admittedly, the little 8800GT is the card that could, but I would like to try my hand at pushing it harder. Now, I've heard the temperature limit is about 115C on the 8800GT, and maybe I should leave it alone for that reason as I'm already hitting 78C while running Crysis, but I should think there's something more to be had.

Here's the problem, when I try to overclock my 8800 (even 1 MHz) it just kicks me out. ATI Tool reads the clock speeds as "0" and "0". Using Coolbits, I get the option to overclock in the Nvidia menu, but any time I actually try to test or "Detect Optimal Settings" it tells me it has encountered an error and my computer needs to be restarted... I'm at a loss here...? Anyone had this happen?

Thanks, all!
