Is there an overclocking database on these cards? I have a recently bought EVGA 8800GTS and was wondering what typical overclocks were. Currently the drivers I am using don't allow separate overclocking of the shaders so I'm doing core and ram only. I have the core up to 650 so far and it runs at 63C while playing the UT3 demo with 15 bots and no artifacts. I was wondering if this is considered a good OC for these cores? I haven't started the ram OC yet, I expect a lot less headroom there though.
 
I have an eVGA 8800GTS 320. I have mine at 620/940. Super stable, I can play for hours on end.

I can go up to 640, but it isn't super stble after about an hour in a 3d game (mostly playing TF2 right now).

At 650, it isn't stable at all. I get artifacts and lockups in 3d games right away (but I can fully run 3dmark). *shrugs*

If you can get 650 and stable, that's pretty good in my book.

My temps in RivaTuner is 53C idle, Ambient 37C (room temp @ 25C). Air cooling. Stock w/ add-on ghetto mod.
 
My eVGA GTS 320mb is sitting at 685/1674/1080, stable, and no artifacts. I'm using stock cooling however, I keep my PC in a furnished basement room to help keep temps low. :D

NICE overclock KamelRed. my GTS is 100% stable at 684/972 (not sure of the shaders, but i just let it auto link with the core). these cards are amazing overclockers. my 3DMark06 score (for what it's worth) jumped from 9700 to 11500 just with the gpu overclock (cpu @ stock).
 
Just started to overclock mine in preparation for Crysis. I got it running very stable at 610 core and 1050 memory. I can go higher on each but I usually drop it down about 15 - 25 mhz from an already stable temp. Paranoid I guess :D.


650 on the core sounds like a good O/C to me. Time for the memory. Just for reference I went from an average of 30-32 fps in crysis to 35-40. Not bad.

Now that RivaTuner v2.06 works for me, overclocking my 640mb 8800GTS's (SLi) w/ Vista Ultimate x64, I am very interested to know any watercooled users results. Currently, I am 656/984 (Completely STABLE). I took a screenie a few days ago of my overclock (showing 648/972). My temps are WAY low and I have yet to even hit 50c. Any input would greatly be appeciated. Thanks!
