Im currently overclocking my EVGA GTS 450 SC, and i came to a point were i want to raise my voltages but when i apply the settings they get reset.
Im using MSI Afterburner

your card bios limits the max voltage you can go to. live with it or flash another bios, voiding your warranty with that.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK :( i wanted to push the card more.Originally Posted by yjlasher22
or you could've bought the gtx 460 .
On stock settings, your graphics card reaches temperatures of about 85 degrees, how far exactly are you expecting to overclock it? Generally it isn't a good idea to go any further than increasing the clocks.
Unless he has a GPU watercooler.
Not someone using a GTS450 :P
my graphic card does not reach 85 degrees, when i play just cause 2 or crysis 2 it reaches 57-60 degrees. Thats because i raised the fan speeds.
Core Clock: 927 i want it at 930 at least
Shader Clock: 1854 this one at 1860 at least
Memory Clock: 2005 and this one 2010 at least.
doesn't really make a difference with such a small bump actually.
None of that is going to make a difference. Not even 1 FPS.
lol
the Stocks are
Core: 882
Shader: 1764
Memory: 1900
Overclocked currently
Core: 927
shader: 1854
Memory: 2005
But i still wanna push it more
A CPU overclock from 2.00GHz to 2.05GHz doesn't make any difference, so why would GPU clocks be any different?
But i do feel a difference in just cause 2 when i move the mouse it reacts alot faster now and when you look around its more steady and faster.
how much more do you think i can overclock with out raising the volts?
I'm not talking about the overclocking you've done, I'm referring to that 5MHz extra you're trying so hard to get. When you change the voltages even slightly, the temperatures increase exponentially. You won't know that you've gone too far until you see artifacts, and by then it could already be too late. That's how you burn out a GPU.
All that for something which will give you less than 1FPS difference?
i guess i will just stay where im at since its all fine no artifacts.
As Rish was stating - its a very insignicifact gain doing that small of a bump up.. in fact, most GPU overclocks are a fail, UNLESS your unlocking an extra shader here or there like some of the lower end cards.
You are much better off just dropping shadows or texturing in a game if you want it to 'move around faster'.
