This software allows this for Nvidia geforce grphics cards, It take no responsibilty for you blowing up your graphics card..
Notice the core, and memory clock speeds.

    Overclocking: Take molten silicium to the maxxx!!
    Seriously though, perhaps you shouldn't post it here, what if somebody who doesn't know enough about computers wanders by?

    im afraid to overclock stuff, after hearing the horror stories, plus im not that elite to do it anyway, so I don't even try.

    And of course, <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=10&t=34183' target='_blank'>something bad just happened anyway.....</a>

    *points at the note*
    <b><i>Note: Increasing the hardware clock frequencies beyond the manufacturer's recommended settings may cause system instability and possibly damage the hardware.</i></b>

    Use caution when using these settings.



    I think it speaks for itself.

    Concerning overclocking, you MUST check out <a href='http://totl.net/Eunuch/' target='_blank'>Project E.U.N.U.C.H.</a>

    LOL!
    I still cant belive they overclocked the thing to HL speeds, even with supercooling...

    hey I have a freezer, some Code Red Mountain Dews, and an old computer, sounds like a fun experiment to do over the summer <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    One useful thing about graphics card overclockers is that usually you can UNDERCLOCK your card, thus when sitting at the screensaves, windows, a word doc, you get the picture, and you dont actually need your card, underclock it and preserve a little life of it.

    X-setup is not overclocking software, its basically almost every tweak ever made put together into one program, mine doesn't even come with overclocking support, I use coolbits to overclock (don't really need to though, it makes no difference at all whatsoever) maybe the latest version includes coolbits (and that picture is of what coolbits does).

    In my mind that apply button dosnt say apply, it says self distruct. I might have even tried a bit of extreme overclocking but, i dont have a case which cools to -30.
    P.S. Otto you havn't seen my screensaver, hehee

    [edit] I overclocked once, my comp didn't explode, but there was absolutly no difference at all in performance, I cranked the numbers up considerably as well, definitly not worth it imo [/edit]

    My screensaver...
    The Gif compression has made it look crappy, it looks better in real life.

    Also i decided to run a test. Cranked it up 100Mhz from normal on each. I had a slight temp increase, and bumped up 400 3D sysmark 2003 points.

    ASUS card have a similar utility that comes with them for overclocking,

    That tab is built into the Nvidia software, it's just hidden, you simply have to add a registry setting to have it visible.

    I don't believe you can clock a card that fast, cards all have their limit, after a certain amount of overclocking, any extra numbers don't make them go any faster. You should always weigh the benefit of the amount of gain by overclocking by the damage you're doing to your card.

    If you want ultimate cooling for your computer, you should live in the antarctic, apparently it's really easy to overclock in the sub-zero temperatures, and you don't even need special cooling equipment..

    Put your computer outside, and run all the cables through a window.

    hehee. No i have not hit the apply button on those settings for fear of fire, explosions and death. Its just the idea you even have those options. Card is currently at core of 300Mhz and the Memory at 650, no problems and no overheating...
