A good safe overclock for a 8800 gts 320 mb.

[Danielsan]

I am planning a flash of my club3d 8800 gts 320, I just dont know where to begin.

I was told it is a good overclocking card, but I am more interested in gaining some performance while keeping my card safe. Any ideas for a reasonable overclock?

Overclock and verify the stability of the card using a utility such as Rivatuner and/or ATI Tool before you go about flashing the card. Mine ran stable around 650 core and 930 memory for many runs. I then used Nibitor to flash it to a newer revision bios (for my exact card, no cross flashing) with clocks at 600 core, 1500 shader, and 1800 memory. Theoretically, it should overclock as well as the 640mb version.

Flashed mine to run @ 600/1400/1900, works great! I found with ExpertTool that I can actually run it @ 620/1950 and it seems to work fine as well, but I'd say 600/1800-1900 is safe.

Not really true.
