We need a new thread for Overclocking for CUDA 4.2

If you have a successful overclock, please post your settings. Please include the card (GTX 570, 580, 670, 680), voltage, Core Clock and Memory.

Note: Please don't use driver version 295 or 296! Recommended versions are 266 - 285.

EVGA GTX 480, with backplate, using MSI Afterburner, voltage 1013, core 801, shader 1602, memory. 1848

Used about 1 GB memory while running, fan & 80%, temp. 75 c., 98 to 99% GPU usage

Windows 7, Seasonic X650, i3 530, 4 GB ram., 3 case fans + 1 PCI card fan( AzenX Blitztorm has 2 fans, 1 exhaust plus 1 blower)

Everything is a little slower than CUDA 3.1 but stats are much improved. I finally broke the 1,000,000 RAC.

"Everything is a little slower than CUDA 3.1" means that all of my clock speeds were reduced from the CUDA 3.1 levels. I had to back everything down about 20 MHz.

The new CUDA 4.2 tasks are not intrusive. The computers continue to work fine with GPUGrid in the background.

MSI GTX 660Ti PE OC

MEM = 1550 (6200 GDDR5)
V = 1.175
DRV = 305.68
OS = Win7x64 HP
BNC = 7.0.28 (x64)

I don't own any 660's and didn't know they had an open ended GPU boost like the 670's. If that's an open ended boost, you won the lottery. I have 1 670 that hits 1202 and the second has never gone over 1184. EVGA came out with a new BIOS for the 670's and they don't seem to clock so high, which is on the second card.

If any one has GTX295's overclocked, please post your settings here also. Thanks in advance, Rick

I used to run my GTX 295 (original 2 card EVGA) @1.050 v, 1512 shaders, 100% fan speed.
By 'used to' I mean 6 weeks ago.

Thanks for your post Snow Crash. Did those settings work with CUDA 4.2? Rick
____________

Yes, that worked fine for 4.2 but I was doing my best to crunch 3.1 (reverse retvari zoltans 4.2 force methodology) because it performed better. If you are in USA and are interested in obtaining my card for cheap send me a PM.
