Overclocking Utitlites

[Rabbit057]

Hello world...
I was wondering what can I use to oc my GV-N580UD-15I effectively? I see a record was broken with 2 of these cards and I have 3 that I mounted water blocks on. I tried oc guru and it says my card isn't supported. I tried msi afterburner and it works for 10 mins then the card goes half the speed.

Thanks

What do you mean by half the speed? Is it showing reduced clocks during 3d load? (You can use MSI Afterburner's OSD to view clock speed and load etc.).

I have never had any problems with MSI Afterburner, it has always successfully overclocked all of my cards.

Do you mean all of the cards go this speed too? As you only mentioned "card" like only one is being used.

It's weird. I oc it to 825 from 792. Run msi kombuster and I get like 120 FPS. Then after 10 mins or so the frames drop to 40. I re start kombuster and frames still at 40 showing the right oc I set. Never did this on my evga 580. Think my card is defective?

As Badbonji asked does this apply to all three cards or just one ?

[Rabbit057]

I took 2 out and tested on 1 it's 1 card. The first one.

What happens if you swap the card for one of the others ? Does the same thing still happen ?

[Rabbit057]

yea like i said. on card one. its strange.

[Dark Mantis]

Perhaps you could re-phrase your answer as I am still not clear. If you insert one any card into the first slot does it have the same effect ?

I figured it out. Had to unlock the voltage and bump it up .5.  Thanks

EasyTune6 worked well for me when I have overclocked.

I disagree. Manual overclocking is the best way. Easytune6 is well too high overvoltages.

Good decision, To cope up with the latest technology we must upgrade the old one. As you know speed on computer defined by the performance of CPU and to keep it fast and cold we need to install a CPU cooler. In this regard, I would like to suggest an affordable and high-performance CPU cooler which is NXZT Kraken M22 120mm. As mentioned in a guide "It is a masterpiece in managing the CPU heat."
