i was thinking about overclocking my gpu (bfg gtx260) and wondered if anyone knew how much i should o/c it by? Out of the box, the core bus was at 590Mhz and memory at 999Mhz. Can anyone tell me what it would be stable at and I am just using the stock cooler
use evga precision and keep increasing the clock rate until it becomes unstable and then leave it at a stable clock just monitor your temps and shit
just like OC a cpu except you do it in windows not bios
i wasgonnsa use nvidia ntune
Don't use ntune.. It kills your pc.. Seriously.. don't.. PRecision by Evga is so muych better.
I have the same graphics card (core 216), buuut im not home right now so can't check my clocks.
I peaked my clocks. / It wont clock any higher

do you still have the stock cooler?
Use Rivatuner or eVGA's Precision for overclocking, they work the best.
O/C as much as you can while still staying stable and semi-cool
;D
As long as its stable and you still see a boost in performance its good.
If you see a decrease in performance after an O/C clock up smaller.
Whats a safe temp for a 9600gt, as I have both of mine at 775/1200/2000 and they are going to like 50degrees+ while in game. Is this safe?
yeah my old geforce 6200 can up to 70 while overclocked to the max.
agreed, ntune is horrible. when i was a horrible noob, i tried overclocking a amd4400 with a locked multiplier. ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu it froze every 2 seconds.
