Hey i have a quick question what program do you use to overclock your g92 because i tried to use atitool but it doesnt even pick up the card as being in the comp. Also i am using vista
 
RivaTuner should work. However, so it will recognise the card, you need to edit RivaTuner.cfg and change:

G92 = 610h-61Fh

to:

G92 = 600h,610h-61Fh

i know i am going to take heat on this one but you could always use ntune
 
I'll put in a vote for RivaTuner. I have a 8800GTS 512 EVGA and could not get ATITool to work either. I tried ntune, but it caused instabilities. I could hardly OC at all and got lots of freezes. I thought it was just an unlucky card. I tried RivaTuner and got great OC on the core and very stable.

Make the change the other guy listed for the .cfg file. Also there is a plugin you have to enable sometimes to get all the fan and voltage sensors working correctly... see Rivatuner forum and search for 8800GTS for that one.

Using Ntune I had instabilities at 690 core. with RivaTuner I am stable at 780 core with no voltage increase and stock cooling. That is with an ambient around 63-64F though. I also have a custom fan profile running at a higher RPM on the card fan.
 
I tried RivaTuner with my 8800gts and Vista 64 and it did not work very good. Not much was accessable.

With the new 8800 gts, you have to edit a .cfg file to get all the options in Rivatuner, as has been said. Without this change options will not be accessable check to make sure you made the changes
 
Yes I figured that out thank you for the help, now on to the testing for stability what is a good program to run to get a good stress test on the card?

Edit: I am currently clocked at 773/1935/1022 and 46C (using nTune to get temp)
 
Most people use the Artifact Testing part of AtiTool for a quick stability check.

Agreed, however if I really wanna test an overclock, i'll give Crysis a go for an extended time. I've had Ati tool not give me artifacts where Crysis would

Yeah, but then you have to watch it. I'm lazy, I like to start the test and go have a beer on the balcony.
