I've got a Ti4200 64MB. How do you overclock vid cards?

I think the latest version of Nvidia drivers have the clock frequency tab enabled (if not search for coolbits). Look for a tab in your video properties...START/Control Panel/Display/Settings/Advanced/ti4200/Clock Frequencys..here you'll be able to adjust your video card GPU/MEM. I would recommend reading a couple reviews about your video card before overclocking it. It may not overclock well or this will give you some idea how high it MIGHT go!

Another simplified way is to download Powerstrip. It has a feature to overclock your video. Ethierway it will get you going.

PM or reply with any questions. Good Luck!

Ah. I'm using the latest WHQL Detanator drivers (40.72). The others seem to cause many problems. I'll look at one of those programs. Any idea whether a stock-cooled Siluro GF4Ti4200 64MB could take much ocing? It gets really hot to the touch already -- I just checked.

The GPU is a little bit harder to overclock higher that 315 on most 4200 cards. It all depends on the GPU version, A2 vs A3, at time of release (know from Articles read). I even think some watercooled 4600's didn't get much higher than 325. Also you don't get as big as a payback as overclocking the memory for higher resolutions. The key to any overclocking is to make sure your case has good, not fair, cooling. If you have good case cooling you should be able to get some good overclocking. The extremes would required more, but wouldn't be worth it on a 4200 (watercooling, etc.).

Try this.

Here's my submission:

VisionTek GF4 Ti 4200 SE 128MB with stock GPU cooler and ramsinks installed (ThermalTake ramsinks)
Runs every day @ 275/550 (GF4 Ti 4400 speed)
Has run as high as 300/650 but I didn't benchmark it. Here is a 3DMark2001 result running at 300/600 quite stably.

All overclocks were completed using the method in the above link.

FYI...
If you want to see if your cards going to show artifacts play BF1942...anything over 590 I get artifacts.
